Ken,

When I click on the left arrow to go back to December 2005, nothing happens...
it stays on January. This is very puzzling. I haven't made any changes or added
any programs lately. Also, Restore is set up properly (max 13% of hard drive),
and I have never turned off the Restore function. My laptop has no issues...it's
been running perfectly.
