    Changing my viewer has turned me into a freak

    What they all said above. Especially that you must create a separate cache directory for each viewer. Very important.

    We all seem to be assuming you are using Windows. Are you? If so ...

    In order to COMPLETELY wipe all viewers from your PC and start fresh, just uninstalling them is not enough.

    Firstly be sure that you are not just deleting the programs but actually using the uninstall feature for each one as this (supposedly) not only erases the software but cleans out the Windows registry of any references. They don't always succeed, however, and I highly recommend a third party registry cleaner when wiping software.

    Also, do a full reboot between each step. Things hanging out in RAM can (will!) confuse the issue.

    Lastly, you must go to the directory  C:\Documents and Settings\XXX\Application Data\SecondLife  (Where XXX is the user name on your PC) and DELETE that folder and everything in it.  When you do a fresh install of the client it will be re-created but with a fresh version of your avatar. You will lose all your settings and tweaks, but I'm thinking you would rather re-enter those than walk around in your leotard.

    And finally, just so you won't feel alone in your green leotard, I've attached a picture of me Ruthed. I have a whole folder of them.

    EDIT: Whoops! Too late. Problem solved. Oh well, I'll leave it posted; might help someone else along the way.

    Ultralight helicopter

    Yay! Success. I forgot about that vendor; I have two of his helicopters, the MD500's both regular and amphibious. Among my favorites when I want to take a passenger touring. Love the smooth flight and the realistic sound.

    Anyway I stopped by the store and got an LC150 Autogyro. Very realistic flight -- and just like a real gyrocopter it can't crash (unless you nose dive) even if it loses power.  You just drift down slowly. Cool!

    Just what I needed, ANOTHER helicopter. (think I have eight or so)

    Just logged back in to add "Abbott's" to Aerodrome and see you've already answered.  Okay, I was focused on ultralight not helicopter, erringly.

    Can you describe it? I MAY have one, or a capture of one, I have so many in inventory. I have a little one-person copter that I got in Caledon quite a while back.  This particular one is no longer available ( http://www.flickr.com/photos/cals_sl_inventory/4965381323/ ) but for illustration purposes, is this what you mean? Or something that attaches to your back that has a copter blade?

    (This feels like a scavenger hunt, suddenly.)

    Just noticed this. If you mean the ultralight (sort of like a go-cart glider) then go to Cubey Terra's Aerodrome. He makes one and it's totally COOL (but everything he makes is totally cool). If you mean something else he probably has that too.

    All of my favorite vehicles are from his store, one of the oldest in Second Life®.  While you are there pick up one of the inexpensive "Segway" type personal people movers. You can cruise along the ground at run speed, or go into fly mode and zip across a region in two seconds flat. Handy!

    Picture of me using the people-mover for exploring: http://www.flickr.com/photos/caliburnsusanto/4156668813/
