Ok. From the "yea, I feel stupid" department, I finally got around to seeing if installation of subsequent programs on my e740 somehow stomped on my 128 bit encryption upgrade to PIE. I didn't do this as I had success with my PPC as is (was) with the Admirals club in Austin. Two lessons learned. First, you don't need this upgrade everywhere, and second, there are programs (not browsers) that will re-write the dll files and somehow put back the older PIE version. Well, I ran home and re-installed it and the place I tried that did not work minutes earlier now worked in a flash. If anybody knows how to find the version of a program on the PPC let me know. The "light" OS strips many normal functions out.
