Not for me neither ;-) Perhaps it was your talk about fire and theft that "fired" me off (pun intended). There is something strange about talking security. Security discussions in photo/data world are based on the "fear" of loosing data, and as we all know fear does something with us. Perhaps this "fear" makes me a bit pig-headed? Don't really know. But I do know that I don't want to be a pain in lower back region ;-) Tim Mostly harmless (just plain Norwegian.)

Whenever you connect and use your external hard disk, your data is at risk and a (yet unknown) virus could do it's damage. You see Tim, **valid** and useful backup strategies have been invented already! There is no need to argue about that over and over for me. Back to Pentax topics greetings Markus >>2.
