this does help, I can now respond. but I now have to learn my way around it again.

As far as installing the update on the exchange server, I dont' think the IT crew in the corporate offices are gonna do that anytime soon. As far as they're concerned, I should be using Xp at home.

Typical "VISTA BAD, LINUX GOOD" mind sets from those people.

Sorry, its my job to troubleshoot Windows Vista machines, I think I'd like to know how to run the damn OS.
