You don't need this CD if you have done all the updates already. If you havn't and are on dial-up, or if you are likely to need to restore your system from scratch, it would be worthwhile. Don't forget to get the updates at least weekly as the CD will be out of date by now. Bob

I should think so too. Serve them right for putting the "back door" in the system.
