The funny thing is... those are server assigned errors (there is probably a number before those errors). So the "non-understandable" message is one that THEY assigned. Also, because this is a server side message, OE will report the EXACT same thing (except OE will probably also tag its own error code on to it, which is more than likely what they are looking for... because their database of problems will reference the OE error number. This is the greatest problem I have with tech support. These are people that usually barely know how to use a computer themselves, and if your problem isn't in their database right in front of them, they can't help you... and will usually try to tell you the problem is entirely on your end, and your fault). I hate tech support... they are the most useless breed of people (ironic really, since it is one of the things I do for a living) -chris <http://www.mythtech.net> ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe send a mail message with a SUBJECT line of "unsubscribe" to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> or <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
