First off, don't try to use _Spam Blaster_. I was initially a beta-tester and _SB_ had many problems that were never resolved. More importantly, _Goo Software_, makers of _Spam Blaster_, has closed its doors due to supposed legal action over their use of the name _Blaster_. So, at least for the time being, _Spam Blaster_ is an "orphan". The good news is that the upgrade from O/S 7.5->7.5.3->7.5.5 is FREE! What you need are the updaters from the Apple Support Site. As I recall you must first go to 7.5.3 and then to 7.5.5. If you need further help please conytact me "straight away". g'day -- To reach us by email remove one "c" from "ccruzio.com".
