Thanks for the quick response. I opened NotePad as Admin and was able to
update the conf successfully and all is working as planned.
Funny though, when I edit the file NOT as an admin, it shows the updated
file without the Admin changes, but editing it as Admin, it looks OK. Vista,
gotta love it.

yet all indications tell me I am in the same file in the same directory

there's a filesystem redirection that occurs when you install into
e.g. program files and edit as non-admin. I think the solution is to
edit as an admin or keep your conf outside of that admin-only area.
