Thanks for the comments... I'll explore more tonight and see what I do. Hope 
my comments weren't seen as a criticism... as I say dependencies have never 
bothered me before.. but in this instance I saw it from the angle of not 
having a net connection to rely on.. and is frustrating.
Anyway.. I'll let you know my success/failiure tonight :)

Of all God's creatures there is only one that cannot be made the slave of 
the lash. That one is the cat. If man could be crossed with a cat it would 
improve man, but it would deteriorate the cat.
