Sounds like a virus to me Lynn. Politically Correct Virus: Never calls itself a "virus," but instead refers to itself as an "electronic microorganism." Bureaucrat Virus: Divides your hard disk into hundreds of little units, each of which does practically nothing, but all of which claim to be the most important part of your computer. Freudian Virus: Your computer becomes obsessed with marrying its own motherboard. Elvis Virus: Your computer gets fat, slow and lazy, then self-destructs -- only to resurface at shopping malls and service stations across rural America. Tony Blair Virus: It starts by boldly stating, "Read my docs ... no new files!" on the screen then proceeds to fill up all the free space on your hard drive with new files, and blaming it on the Parliament Virus. LAPD Virus: It claims it feels threatened by the other files on your PC and erases them in "self-defense." O.J. Virus: It claims that it did not, could not and would not delete two of your files and vows to find the virus that did it. Adam & Eve Virus: Takes a couple bytes out of your Apple. Yugoslavia Virus: Almost immediately fragments into several autonomous parts. Then it violently tries to reassemble itself for the next 150 years. Arnold Schwarzenegger Virus: Terminates and stays resident. It'll be back.

Lynn It sounds just like what my youngest has got - except hers was accompanied by some mysterious spots. Hope you're feeling better soon. Jeanette
