Maybe that is the
Jumbled letters don't necessarily indicate corruption. The program may have been compressed, for instance. In my experience, anti-virus software that runs in the background causes unacceptable performance hit and generates too many false positives. In my line of work, I often receive large attachments (typically, 5-10 MB in size). I have yet to see an AV package that scans this amount of data without annoying delays. They're buggy, too. I've been receiving complaints from users of one of my freeware applications - apparently my app wouldn't respond when a hyperlink to a local file was clicked. Turned out they were all using AVG, which somehow, totally invisibly to the user, prevented the program from launching other applications. > How would I do a screen capture? The PrintScreen key will copy your current screen to clipboard. Alt+PrintScreen will copy only the active window (which is typically more useful). You can then paste the image from clipboard into any image editing program (Paint will do). .marek jedlinski -- No ads, no nags freeware: http://keynote.prv.pl (KeyNote, PhoneDeck, KookieJar, Oubliette) ________________________________________________ Current version is 1.62 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
