Well, looks like I may have been mistaken on the "booting". Dang thing wouldnt let ME log on at all yesterday after several attempts throughout the day, but would allow others to which I could see were online. I was also able to log on with a new sign on name cornelius08~ ...but not my regular id. Sorry for the accusing Steve-o, but it was the only thing that made sense.
Anyway, enjoy but dont expect to hear this again in the near future, for once....I WAS WRONG. Though with good reason. lol.
