   What are you whining about?  Windows doesn't have a checkbox for =

adapter which is the right thing to do on many laptops.  It's = what I did
until I got a laptop with a switch on the case to disable the = radio. 
Enabling the adapter turned everything back on.  Even on the = laptop with
the switch it behaves this way.  If you have a laptop that = didn't do that

  Latest change I found, if you go into my network places properties and
  disable wireless on a laptop, when you re-enable it the hardware is =
turned
  off, what the heck is that all about? On W2K I can just enable/disable =

first
  enable then go find the stupid hardware setting and change the radio =
back to
  ON..
