     If someone asks for help, (s)he shouldn't be harsh at all. Usenet is   
   not a paid service subscription.

     I'm talking about my suggestions and your mostly non-response/non-action.

     I'll let the others value your judgement on their efforts.

     There you go again, criticizing the people who are trying to help you.   
   Yes, I sometimes (often? :-)) criticize other posters for what they   
   write, but not those who are trying to help me.

     Fair nenough, but then just say so. Our crystal balls are in the shop.

     I don't have the impression that you've spent all that much time   
   following up on suggestions, surely not on mine.   
      
     You want all the notes, but don't seem to want to spend time on it. So   
   just say so and end the thread, so we can stop wasting *our* time.   
      
   > I can so easily screw up my computer trying out things I don't understand.   
      
     Most of the advice given has nothing to do with your computer, only   
   the localsend stuff and that shouldn't screw up your computer, at worst   
   it (localsend) just doesn't work.   
      
     Bottom line: Just let us know whether you want to pursue this further   
   or not.
