YEAH = same thing that drives me crazy about Win95 and it's "helper
applications" -- like clicking on a GIF or JPEG in a directory and having
Windows launch - not Photoshop - but the "photo editor" msft bundles
w/Win95.
Drives me crazy. I did finally figure out how to go in and change the

a relatively sophisticated computer user).
