I would strongly suggest nobody ever follow this reckless approach to eliminating BLODAs.

Don't go manually killing processes or hand-editing the registry, or you will be left holding the pieces when it all breaks. cheers, DaveK -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
