Me too.  Seems everytime I use it for the first time again, I have to fool
around with it.  Not that it's complicated, just that things don't always work 
as I anticipate or expect.  Usually, (always) I fool around a bit and it
works, and I seldom remember what was wrong, or what, if anything, I did to
get things to work.

I'd be surprised if it's anything special, but I've been surprised once or
twice in my life:-)
