Colin and the List,

I have also tried to uninstall and reinstall the screensaver... there was no 
change.

It is interesting because I have another system that behaves normally.

I do not know what I did wrong or where to look for a clue.

I also recently changed from digest mode to non-digest mode. Am I still having 
threading problems?


Thanks,
Jay
