Daniel and Steve,<br>
I will be gladly listen and comply to your request. <br>
In turn, I humbly request that you please continue to work on your
software's short comings.<br>
I would hope that our criticism makes you a bit uncomfortable.<br>
As many have written here, your buggy software is causing
frustrations at a time when <font size=4 color="#FF0000"><b>we do not
need them!<br>
</font></b>Very unhappily yours,<br>
Larry (MS user since the first MSPRO) for DOS<br>

MetaStock<br>
ListServ is extremely active and my separate Netscape email file,<br>
solely for this ListServ, is already 50 MB's.<br>
<br>
In contrast to other ListServ's, the MetaStock ListServ only has<br>
one (1) server and is very slow. Furthermore, because ISP
email<br>
servers are slower than their browser counterparts, loading up<br>
these PIC's makes us wait that much longer for our email to<br>
download.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>

Lynn,
Your suggested fix seemed to remedy the constant crashing. I have scrolled
through dozens of issues, without a hitch. I appreciate your help, and
also the comments of others, here, for bringing this apparently common
situation to your attention.
