This is not neccessary sence most of the members have very good eye, and would make it very difficult to read. Second, The System Configuration Utility only show processes that are started in the Startup section or have been stopped from starting. In msconfig the Startup tab is the second from the top right. What are you extactly looking for? -------------------- "2007 & 2008 Windows Shell/User Award"
