Windows 7 no longer has that setting in control panel. It now has "Home Group", "profiles", "Sharing Options" and all kinds of other new settings that sound scary by offering the potential to irreparably destroy my home wireless network connection permanently. . . :-) Any one else have any other suggestions? Thanks. Chuck
