   Hi! Bj”rn,

   Ahmm... since last evening, yes.  Win98 is a lousy 'server' OS, requiring   
   constant care & attention to ensure that things keep running.  Unfortunately   
   my attention was elsewhere last night.  I was playing with a new release of   
   Puppy Linux in another VirtualBox.  Nice little thing it is.  :)   
      
    BF>    Please don't say that you've changed to Windows 10...? 8-)   
      
   Hell no!  I'm in the early stages of changing -this- machine over to a brand   
   new HP host (not the one running Fido, BTW), which entails probably wiping out   
   an unused Win 8.1 infestation.  :)   
      
   Apologies for the hassles.  The logjam is clear now...   
      
   Cheers,   
   Paul.
