Hehe, that sounds a bit familiar. I recently released an app to a few company-internal beta testers, among them my boss, and some of them managed to get themselves into a similar situation (the webserver didn't have the MIME type set correctly for .prc; that combined with using Netscrape resulted in a corrupt file being downloaded and then happily installed by Hotsync). Basically, I didn't find a way other than Hard Reset to get rid of the corrupt app. Of course, since they had just hot-synced their devices minutes before to install the app, they didn't lose anything. Screwing up your boss' Palm can be pretty embarrasing... ;-) Oliver __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
