Oh that is clever! (Security through obscurity!) Make it all the harder to back up the file! I had the minimal amount of security W95 allows one to have by having the default user not be able to do anything, then the me user to everything (for which you needed a password...) Of course my registry got corrupted (eudora beta for W95) and the only damn thing it did remember was that the default user couldn't do anything, and it no longer knew who I was... So now, I don't even bother with that, I'm just hoping securdrv, sfs, or something makes it to W95 one of these days... (I doubt either of those will make it...) _______________________ Regards, It is absurd to divide people into good and bad. People are either charming or tedious." -Oscar Wilde.
