    Hiya Kevin

    Thanks for the quick reply ;) I have the same problem in being too
    cautious. I tought of backing up the libGl file just in case, but then
    if I restore the backup, the symilnk will still be in place, so if I do
    damage, I am not sure how to "unsymlink" (if that is a word lol) the
    file - should this cause problems with other programs, and am worried
    about destroying my system. As a newbie I have done a few installs in
    the last 6 months or so and have limited access to the net ATM so not
    in a good possie to rebuild. When I build the courage tho, I will do it
    the way you have suggested - cding to the directory.

    Thank you
    Andy
