All DONE. Thank you so very much for all your time and efforts. I know how difficult it is to work out problems when you are not in front of the computer but you did it - your a champion. I am feeling fantastic now. It is so nice to have my computer starting the way I want it too. I can't believe I didn't check the Passwords in the Control Panel myself. Thank you, thank you, and if I haven't said it - THANK YOU. Hope you have a nice day. Regards to you Sue
