Good call there ConqSoft. I just recently renamed my htaccess because people who use certain firewalls couldn't even see the buttons because they were being replaced with my alternate image LOL.

I decided it was easier to just disable it than to explain it over and over and over and over... Now, I will follow your lead and renable it.

Thanks!
