I'm going to hunt for this program soon as I can, it sounds good. The little
number Patti posted yesterday works extremely well and like I said it is
already on the server.

there is an application I'm using, I got it for free from somewhere (try
googling it) called USB Safely Remove

it puts an application in the start menu and when you activate it brings up
a list of any USB devices plugged into your machine it also has a set of
menu's, the first is "actions" in which you can disconnect, reconnect, and a
few other options to use and I have never had it fail to properly disconnect
something when I told it to do so!

I use it with jaws with no real problem

the only flaw I have found with it is that it tends to interpret any second
or third drive type device as the same type as the first one I plug in.

I.E. if I plug in a Kingston thumb drive, then a external Hitachi hard drive
it will call both of them Kingston thumb drives, although it will mark the
first as drive f and the second as drive g so you can figure out which is
actually witch

and reverse, if I plug in the Hitachi first both are called Hitachi drive
though with the drive letter differentiation as above noted.

give it a try, as I said its a freebee (it may have come from
http://www.freedownloadaday.com/)

take care,
