Having previously complained about Newbase losing articles, I've now
noticed another oddity. Whenever it checks for new files, the LED on my
floppy disc drive lights up - is Newbase trying to access a floppy disc?

As a result of this, my RiscPC freezes quite often, and then suddenly
catches up with me.

Is it possible to downgrade to NewsBase 0.53, without major effort?

Simon
