FUD comes to mind (Fear,       Uncertainty, Doubt).              Heck, if your 'puter has internet access than the router can 'see' your       puters IP. It has to, otherwise it can't give your 'puter the responses to       requests it send.              Regards,       Rudy Wieser              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
