Tell me about it.   Sigh.  At least I have 72 hrs.  What I've done is set up
two accounts in Outlook Express - one for the new ISP and one for the old.
That way as services that I subscribe to send me their periodic mailings, I
can make the necessary change at their website.  Increasingly, I'm finding
that I keep a hand-written log of passwords, services that I subscribe to,
etc.
It's as if the technology has overwhelmed itself and I, for safety's sake,
have gone back to quill and papyrus.  The thing is: the quill and papyrus
WORKS!!!!!!!!

Regards,
Mike
