Several people have given you good advice. This may sound odd, but it's worked for me quite a few times. Go to the menu. Select Configuration > Other > Menudrake. In Menudrake select Networking > WWW and check the list under Networking and see if Amaya is listed. If it is, click on it to highlight it, then click on the floppy icon above that says Save. Wait until it's done. Then close Menudrake and look through your menu again to see if Amaya is there. You might be surprised to find that it is. By the way, don't look for Amaya in Menudrake only under WWW, although I suspect that's where it will be if it shows up. HTH, Dale Huckeby
