Some people would disagree with you, but only in a situation such as mine. (-:

No one here but me.  That's why I want to bypass it and be able to leave
town for a few days to visit relatives and be without the anxiety of
wondering what might happen if a power failure would occur.  With Win98
and/or Windows ME, I didn't have that worry.

If there were any.

Right!

Okay, thanks.  How is that configured?

That's good to hear.  The one in Windows ME is too, but whenever a warm or
cold boot is performed, KABOOM!  Nothing in the Task Scheduler works and
all settings are deactivated, though not deleted.  I'm now wondering if
it's a setting I've misconfigured in ZoneAlarm Pro.(?)

Roger
