Thanks for the idea! I will look into that. If anyone has any idea how that could be done, I would really appreciate to hear it. > So you disable or redefine File.read, say.

But we'll see about that later. I could make part of the updater and such search the user program files for anything from the stdlib, but that would take a looong time. That may be what I have to do, but I'll need to find a way to not have to search for the whole stdlib... or something... my head hurts now too!
