Dear Caveman,<br><br>Thanks for that - a couple of follow-ups:<br><br>1. Yes, my installation doesn't remember usernames between session (neither on my machine, or other users). This is true whether you logoff, or just close your browser. Is there anything I could do to chase down why this is?<br><br>2. ZAP sounds good. I don't know what it is though. Any example of it working would be very gratefully received.<br><br>Thanks again,<br><br>Rick.<br></div></div><br>
