She is being taught, CH. I came upon her going through the drill after she got up this morning today, spybot search&destroy, AdAware, and running a Symantec scan of the system. She was fine. But to ameliorate things I offered to download her 1.2 gig game, and it still took about 10 hours on my DSL (it runs in the slower range--we're hoping as the build a new neighborhood next to ours that they upgrade all of the cables around here).

John, that box is checked in my tools/options/advanced settings.

Bill, you always recommend great programs. I think you're the one who told me about PDF995. I'm about to switch to Adobe (work will provide it) but it has been a lifesaver. Anyway, I've figured out how to load files via FTP onto the free pages that come with my Earthlink accounts, but it is removing them that has me puzzled. I think the answer is to FTP the whole new file of the same name over the file that is there and it will replace the contents, not add to the old folder's contents, correct? I've been spoiled for years, working on a live server at the university, where I can see everything and just work on it or move it around to my heart's content. FTP feels more like shooting the files through a dingy keyhole and then peeking in to see if they splattered around the room the way I wanted them to. :)
