Yep, the reindex worked, only about 9 hours lol. a quick google netted the same link posted above.  but I figured with the length of time that required i'd ask here for more info as a precautionary measure, glad that fixed it though.  hardware wallet support can't get here soon enough.  I have a rule i won't invest much time/$ in any project if i can't use a hardware wallet.  the risk is too much a deterrent for anything substantial and time is far too valuable to waste on small stuff.  ZEN is the only one where I've made an exception as I like the project so far and the mining has been pretty good.  Can't pass up that double win.
