Well I can't say that it doesn't work reliably. I've used it once or twice and did not note any problems. you did say you had a computer lockup. Could that have been what lost the dupe feature? Did the lockup lose the dupe feature or Did the dupe feature cause the lockup. Next minor contest I will try to duplicate this.
