[AT] Fw: Computer problems once again.

[charlie hill]

Leaking seems to come with Zenith and M-S Carbs when they get old.  I can't 
get mine sealed up good either.  Most of the time I just don't worry about 
it.  I have managed to get the shut off valves tight so I just cut them off.

As for IE 7 I don't even like it if did work right.  The way the history and 
favorites folders work is a pain in the rear and they replaced the names on 
all of the buttons with icons that are hard to remember.  I'm glad to be 
back on IE 6.
