As I said, the thing is agile. A week ago the restore thing started up right off the bat and ran, this time the normal function was blocked. There just happened to be a "go around" that I stumbled over to make it work. The efinturds that wrote the bug are updating it as we speak it seems....the antivirus folks are sucking wind on getting their products working on it.
