"OK I thought that mobsync was just another way to initiate a synchronization."
It is teh Offline Files Synchronization Manager. Mobsync.exe alone brings up a config, but the /logon actually forces a reconnect to the network (online mode), and a full synch.....
"running wireless and she loses the signal."
Synchronization will occur at every network connection detected......So a drop, then a reconnect is like finding a network for the first time. I am willing to be you she is cancelling it.....
