Micro$oft SLIME! I d/l'd IE4 and it filled up 100 megabytes left in my m$ partition. After recovering from that, now when I tell m$ to shut down the computer, it hangs and requires power removal before I can get my stinkpad back for useful work. Does anybody know if the bios / video driver re-install will fix this? TIA... davew (Tag below was random :-) -- dwiebold@etnsed.aus.etn.com . . . . . . . My other computer runs Linux!
