Thanks Edward,
I am aware many os would be better than 98. Including probably all the
bsds and lots of linux distributions.
You have given a great answer but it doesn't help me reinstall local
policies. Do you [and everyone else :-) ] know how to get local policies
reinstalled without a format, reinstall? BTW I use za pro, although it
seems to be less reliable than za freebie.
cheers,
Mike
