Thanks. Staying connected long enough to post bigger things is a
problem at the moment.

No Grabit stuff in there that I remember. Possibly as a deterrent to
using it.
I was hoping for a change to Agent instead of using "half programs".
Might as well drive something a bit more useful/powerful than Grabit.

Knew it would be something all technobabbley.... meheheh.

Still, we have to move forward. We can't have people being left
behind, just because their click and go is not working...

As occasionally demonstrated.

Ladies, if you are not getting the most out of your ABCP experience,
please download the tutes and helpful programs that are contained in
it. You will need winrar to get you started. I believe the tutes are
still packaged in winrar shrinkwrap!

Yes..... some reading is involved.... too bad, so sad!
Hand holding is available upon request.
It won't hurt, I promise!

Pixie :-)
