Well the link provided by a previous poster was to an Iomega web site for an
XP Moving Tool. It requires Active Disk Technology. As I said before.
Yuck!

I suspect there is confusion over which program is being talked about. I
hope it is NOT this Iomega pgm.

"Requirements:
Windows XP installation CD
An Iomega Zip, HDD or CyberKey™ storage devices
An Active Disk enabled system (available with this download or by
installing the latest version of IomegaWare)"

Has anyone experiment with it?

As mentioned in my previous post, I have had terrible experiences with
Iomega's Active Disk Technology. IMHO it is very buggy, bloatware to be
avoided at all costs.

Since this program needs the Active Disk component, I would stay away from
it.
