[QUOTE="PGB1, post: 1643385, member: 76746"] Thank You Chscag & Harryb2448 for taking the time to reply with interesting information. I did a restart & looked in trash for the items you mentioned Chscag. Nothing was showing. I checked with hidden files showing. Nothing. Beats me why they aren't there on my computer. I was just curious (and finding an excuse to delay shoveling the morning snow...) So, my not-so-genius idea of removing Office & re-installing won't get rid of the problem unless I don't do the updates. I think having the security updates is important, so ditch and reinstall is out. [U]Caution! Whining & Complaining Below[/U].. I don't mind that Microsoft is "listening" to me (sometimes cuss at them), but I'm not too crazy about the billion and six entries making my Daily.out file huge. (Mixed in with usual "Stealth Connection Attempt" entries from who knows where.) Nor do I cherish the fact that is is using network resources 'listening'. I am more disappointed about Activity Monitor showing that the service is using Real Memory and Virtual Memory when no Office program is open. I only have 2GB, so I hate to see it wasted. Perhaps it is time up add more RAM? Any suggestions who the preferred places to buy RAM are? I suppose, to get the RAM free, can get in the habit of going to Activity Monitor and force quitting the service after I close an Office program. (Doing it while using an Office program causes open Office programs to abruptly close.) It seems odd that since users who bought (i.e. Paid For) a physical copy on a disk of Office 2011 (not 365) must have RAM and bandwidth used for something we do not get benefit from. But, I suppose that's one of the requirements for using the program (and it is not mentioned in the license agreement. I looked. Boy am I trying hard not to shovel the snow...) As far as sending the bill for services that you mentioned Chscag, please send it to: Accounts Payable Department, Attn: W. G. 1 Microsoft Way Redmond, WA 98502 Be sure to add something extra for yourself & HarryB Enjoy Today! Paul [/QUOTE]
