Not everyone. :-) The Swedish name of that directory is "Program", and a = problem that often occurs in Sweden is that C:\Program is opened every=20 time you log in. This happens when a program has installed an autostart=20 command but made two errors: It assumed that the directory for programs=20 is always C:\Program Files, and it didn't quote the command properly. --=20 Bj=F6rn Persson PGP key A88682FD omb jor ers @sv ge. r o.b n.p son eri nu
