Hi Paul, This is interesting. I have heard nothing about this till now so I think this might be worth looking into after all.Apologies Susan for my earlier post as you could well have developed problems. I wonder if you Paul and Susan have been allowing your spamfighter software to update itself. If you bring up a list of system tray icons, keys, "insert + F11" assuming you are using jaws that is and see if by arrowing through the available icons there is there one prompting you to update your spamfighter. This is very important especially if it is a major update and may cause the older version of spamfighter to stop doing its job if it is set to time out whenever a new major update is available.
