I run : AutoDoubler and SpeedyFinder7 without any problems. GateKeeper and the : background copies disagree a bit. However, I do not like the potential : cataclysmic effects of a non-Finder background copier anyway; so, that : feature is inhibited on my setup. I am also another very satisfied SpeedyFinder7 user. I'm not so fussy about the background copier, however, since I don't have really "critical" files stashed on my hard drives, so I use the backgrounder to it's fullest. By setting the copy memory allocation to a minimum (I've found that copying speed isn't nearly as important anymore since it's being done in the background), I've been able to get things done without feeling the copying much, instead of waiting for the copy to finish. It is definitely worth the AUS$20. yan choon -- Yan Choon Ee AOL: choon Simon Fraser University Internet: yane@sfu.ca
