Or he can update again. I really thing having this popup always there is rude. So now, if you say "I know" E17 will remember that list of module and not barf about it again. But if you get a crash, the white box will tell you to first retry without any module. I think it's a way better treatment than before. -- Cedric BAIL ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Everyone hates slow websites. So do we.
