Where are       you getting 8.2 from?              I believe Net 8.x uses the same password file type as FF. If so, then       copy the files signons.txt and key3.db over. Do this while Net is closed.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
