Thanks for checking... whatever the problem was, I just used up 
enough of the 4.3 inks that I now need more, so I don't expect to 
see it again. Oh yes, Norton; a mixed blessing. I tried their anti-
crash thing a couple years back on W98 made the crashes much worse. 
OTOH, I'm now trying their Int. Security-last night it prevented 
some kind of back-door Trojan from getting in my system...
