Thanks for the tip. You might consider upgrading to XP even if it might have Java compatibility issues. In all other aspects is far superior to 98SE. If I don't run IB I can go for weeks without rebooting. (No system errors at all) I remember Win98 would reboot 2 or 3 times a day. On the other hand XP has (lack of) privacy issues, and is going to cost more than 98SE for sure. <g> Thanks again. H.
