Re: Windows XP

Actually, the only reason I described the Search Engine route, was because I
was so surprised it worked. I had originally detailed in the email how to
move from page to page to get the CA info, because previous searches had
been frustrating. Thought I'd try the search just to be sure, but it worked.
btw-I check the CA info apars regularly for updates. It answers a lot of
problems.
