Sorry just had to post this quick. Just after mailing the last email, I
encountered the known wb lockup bug. (Miami twitched and I locked up). so
after rebooting again with no wbstartup or backdrops, I had 48 megs of fast
again! So it is something in WBstartup(the likely suspect still seems to be
T.H.E.) that causes it. The first time I rebooted did not clear it out, but
the second time did.

I am still not sure. Gotta go back to work before my Amiga gets me into
trouble again...
