From: Rich on 4 Mar 2010 11:12 Thank you one and all - it would appear that the Logitech optical mouse (cord type) is the problem. Switching back to an ordinary PS2 mouse seems to be working.

From: Carlos on 4 Mar 2010 15:01 Hi Charlie, This is an advanced return. I am spending some days in Buenos Aires at my daughter's house (with Hi-speed Internet) before returning to Rio Grande on Sunday. Will check the NG every time my wife doesn't take me out for shopping. :) Carlos "Charlie Russel - MVP" wrote: > Welcome back! Hope you had a good vacation.
