  A perfectly fine piece of software too (;-) and I trust *more*
reliable that Exploder.  Apart from the bugs that is, such as the
mark-and-copy working only every fourth time on average, but one can
tolerate familiar and simple bugs.

  But maybe that's only happening here, and it *should* be a Windoze API
function anyway, sheeting it back to Microslop, like the tendency to
crash reliably within 24 hours.  Funny how reliable my *oldest* WIN95
system is!

  My experience is that unless you are habitually changing software on
your system, all these temporary disturbances are almost certainly
someone else's fault, quite possibly your ISP.

  I used to get my mail over and over again; i.e., it failed to be
removed from my ISP's mail-server when acknowledged.  I whinged and was
told some real guff about it, but sometime later it stopped and now it
hasn't happened for many months.

  Quite obviously he didn't have the faintest idea how the thing worked,
there was some switch set wrong and eventually someone set it right by
accident!
