About the same time I found that it always started with kmail opened - and I always use kontact, so I can't imagine how that happened. However, closing it and saving the session didn't cure it. An hour or two ago I decided to set it to Empty Session for the time being. We'll see how it goes. If the worst comes to the worst I can use other computers while I reinstall this one. It may prove too difficult to find the damage and correct it. Anne
