Ron,
Thanks so much for letting us know what's worked for you. I'm not sure what problems you were having with RocketTheme or Virtuemart, but if you let us know, it'd be great so we can let others know this solution that's helped you. We may also be able to recommend other changes that would fix things without having to use even more extensions to manage stuff.
Either way, I hope everything goes smoothly from here. As always, if you need anything else, you know where to find us.
Thanks,
Alex
