I am not sure its you, i think it may be unclear. If you can think of a better way to word it let me know and i will do so -------------------- Lawrence

QUOTE What I am saying is that if you have 95/98/me, replace where it says c:\windows\system32\ above to c:\windows\system32. How do I replace these from one to the other? Or is it just the folder that I choose while in Search for Files and Folders? Thanks for you patience. BTW your new Av. rocks!
