Dave:

Think you're right; most of us get quite a few applications going at once.
As you will see, however, Dean Martineau and Ted Shelley solved my first
problem for me.

Mike:  I haven't had the first problem, at least not enough that I have
noticed.  I have the 2nd one, I have a HP machine, jaws 12 etc.,
32 bit though.  at times it bogs down but I think, and assume it is because
of everything I have going, e-mail, qwitter, and am usually downloading
backups from nfbnet.org server, or transferring backups to external USB
drive.  Thus the antivirus programs get triggered some, and they take a
toll.
