Thanks for the links Frank. I also have some deep, dark recollection of a news item about this topic which likely I didn't pay a lot of attention to. I'll probably update a machine today and make sure there's no obvious problems here before I do my important machines. And I do understand that you weren't saying there was a problem - only that you were having to rebuild a lot of stuff so you were looking for background on why. Cheers, Mark
