ARGH. Does it happen on XP machines, I wonder?
I wonder why on this Win2k box but not my earlier Win2k Box?

Sigh.
Thanks for the fast response.

Maybe I *will* rebuild this as a linux box, and then I can run various forms of
Windows in assorted windows with VMWARE. Meanwhile, I am sad to lose one of my
old favorite programs. (I guess I can still play games, but I was really into
tracking my improved rating)

I suppose they'll have it fixed if it affects XP...

PS you don't happen to have any hints about why, do you, DLL conflict or
anything? Why would NT/2k affect a program variable like that?
