        Thanks to all but I can't mess with this any longer due to my
        usage limitations. I'm limited to 17 gigs down in 30 days and
        I'm at the 80% mark now and getting a warning. Every time I
        bring up Windows it seems it wants to download something else
        and we've run up 2 gigs just today.

        Again thank you for the help. A limitation of this satellite
        system that I don't usually have any problem with ...

        Bob
