Viv, I should have clarified my "Not Really". I was referring to not really knowing why it is needed. I don't understand the whole permissions thing with the latest operating systems. The BLG runs some code from another location and I assume it has something to do with that. For me, I don't worry about the permissions because there isn't anybody touching this computer but me. I do my outside protection from outside my computer. That may not be the same for everybody.
