and the jafo is not the only master of MS shatter in these forums, and some of us can even manage to re-assemble the shattered windows into a able to function window frame, even if there are a few lines across the view. I have been breaking MS products since 1980, then getting them to work again afterwards. Harpo, the NON-subscriber

I also agree with starkers regarding fucksters, and that Victim Bugger(btw have NOT had any in the last 30 years and will be atleast 30 years MORE before I have any and only then when I am totally senile (not a family trait as none of the family have ever qualified as less than razor sharp minds even on their deathbeds) harpo, the NON-subscriber

personally on downloads first I only use the original site, then during the install I also use a program called unchecky (from http://unchecky.com/ ) that claims to disable the install options for the crapware(and does seem to) Harpo, the NON-subscriber

in the stardock store you will be able to download diplomacy at v1.37, entrenchment at v1.055, vanilla at v1.195 and trinity is at v1.37 (same as the diplomacy). any mod released for the diplomacy/trinity 1.3X patch SHOULD work in trinity/diplomacy 1.37, and it is a full download, there were no seperate patch files, only full downloads (atleast since vanilla sins 1.05) Harpo, the NON-subscriber

jsheeh9427, the .entity files have two modes (txt & bin indicated by the first 3 characters of the file contents), the entity converting tools ALL use the convertdataEXPANSION.exe that comes wiht the game and do NOT change the file extension. if you want to change the file extension then the game DOES NOT READ the file as the game only looks for the .entity files, so any and all changes you make to a .txt would not be seen in the game ontop of all the errors you would see in the d

you two seem to have had a reletively positive experience with norton/symantec virus 'products'. I have seen several cases (on customer computers) of norton LETTING virii into the computers (and norton claimed to know the virii) and having the computer actually infected with the virii and I had to manually remove said virii AND norton. from these experiences I have chosen to call the VIRUSes not anti-virus harpo, the NON-subscriber

kona, it sound like you might have 'toolbar hell', I would suggest using the iobit uninstaller and looking through the list for ANY items that have the following words 'tool' 'bar' 'toolbar' 'search protect' ,'ask' then uninstall ALL the items that have those words (I also suggest the deep scan after the standard unistall and select all the found items and delete all of the found items. then go through ALL the browser addons and
