We must be neighbors. No TV, no cell phone, a couple of scratchy radio stations, no cable, no DSL. We do have 256K dual ISDN (actually technically quad I guess, since ISDN lines are always paired) but it's pricey.

I'm in far southwestern Utah, closer to Las Vegas than to SLC. We live under the highest part of a 10,000 + foot mountain which just happens to be the largest laccolith in the world (unfinished granite upthrust during a mega-volcanic disturbance millions of years ago - solidified ash actually) so there's some magnetic-interference problems as well as the mountain itself.... and our phone lines are at least 20 years old so dial-up isn't particularly good because of both complications. Cell phone works down by the church - where I have a direct line-of-sight to the cell array on another mountain. Only hope is sat-band, and I just can't afford it yet.

Just noticed this over the past coupla days. For some reason, FireFox and ZoneAlarm get into a fistfight from time to time, and the only way I can fix it is to close them both down, start ZA first then FF. Anyone else have this problem?

I don't have problems with ZA and anything on my machines. It's probably the single most well-behaved program I own!
