Thanks for the updates, FeMan. Appreciate it. Wannabet that Bill is gonna charge? If not right away, eventually as an extra-cost "add on" service pack.

Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day;
Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime;
Then industry pollutes the water and kills all the fish.

But will they build it or will they buy it? Wouldn't surprise me a bit if the next version of Symantec's antivirus software had Microsoft's name instead of Peter Norton's on it. (No, I haven't heard such a rumor, I'm just saying that you don't need to innovate when you've got more money than God.)

Say something cryptic, then leave snickering.

If it has as many holes in it as their operating systems I wouldn't want to use it .
