Hi Flor' Yes sir, I believe you are correct with both of your statements because I am not being nagged each time I start / reboot the computer and the Jaws locking up thing I do believe is a totally separate issue. I probably shouldn't have lumped the 2 issues together as 1 issue. Thanks again for your advice. Take care. Mike
