And seems to stop it for the rest of my web session after i "unlock" the firewall again ....... it's as if i downloaded a security patch that some one has already cracked ..... because i DID NOT have the problem before the "patching! ..... any suggestions from the audience? ..... besides "restorepoint" ...... i'd like to repair the prob ..... so it doesn't come up again after another critical update .... mr ogre -------------------- it's love-hate thing!
