      Geez, Mike, either you're incredibly lucky or incredibly blessed.  SSS
is LADEN with bugs--non destructive bugs, but bugs nonetheless.  Phantom 
compression and decompression of files that aren't even marked as files to
be compressed, interferes with PrintMonitor in many, many applications.
I'm lucky:  I just added a 330 meg drive so I could turn it off!  ;-)
