lol I looked at the posts you sent to eppie, I was wondering the same thing (if there's a faster way to check your id/sid before getting your starter)...if you ever end up finding one can you please tell me?
btw, VBA only runs at around 140% max on my computer no matter how much I change the throttle/priority/frame skip/whatever, do you have the same problem (since we both have vista)? If not it's probably just my computer...
