> RE; thankyou its what I really needed to know,as for what you mention about
norton, ( both on hd and from CD) I have had far more damage caused by it
than useable fixes with it,I wont buy it again. I also have tech-tool
deluxe,(totaly useless)I will stay with OS9 for the forseeable future and go
with discwarrior and plus optimizer ,I have tried many times to upgrade my
OS, but it just doesnt last or work as well as basic OS9.0 that it came
with, G4 350 sawtooth.thanks again
