   Funny effect with this version with memory sticks (previous version    
   worked fine).   
      
   Insert stick, go to Drives and click "refresh removable media" to get    
   ECS to  "see" it.   
      
   In the previous version this works fine and an icon for J: (the single    
   DFSEE created artition) comes up.   
      
   In v179   
   a) it triggers a desktop refresh (bizarre)   
   b) jams the system   
      
   This is on my T61 and the stick is a sony.   
      
   Please let me know what info you would like (may not be easy to    
   collect!)
