I,Too, suffer from registry fright but this fix is pretty simple. The longest part is going thru the setup process for X2 to install. If you are that afraid of the registry, maybe you have a family member or close friend who is computer savvy enough to do it for you. I just had such success with it and I have only been in the registry once or twice myself when my regular tech guy was around. I agree, if you are put off by it, Don't Touch It!
