that cheater burner is a god send. converted all of 400 songs in about an hour and they take up half the space, great find cheers.

wma is half the size. getting an mp3 player soon and you can get twice as many songs on

unfortunately i wrote my music onto a cd then i went into windows media player and tried to rip it but it coudnlt see the cd as it was a "data" cd. i used nero but you cant make it so it writes the cd as an audio cd in mp3 format.

just a question say i wrote virtually all my music that is in mp3 onto a cd. then i use windows media player to make them into wma is that what you are sugessting

im tight can any one suggest a good free one

i know that i mean things like the calander, and the thing that mr brownstone has done

how did you get it so turn off computer, log off, run etc appear in the top left hand corner like that??

thnx ill try that

well sometimes iv had 3. at this time i would only be able to then use firefox if i closed the smaller ones

sometimes firefox will run mutliple procceses. it wudnt matter but both are using about 30 meg of the mem. is there any reason for this. i would take a screenie but i dont know how.

im not sure which ones but im sure u can get rid of a few of those startup programs. i only have 4

i have a dsl modem with a half mega byte connection. odd and random times during the day it will suddenly disconnect saying that there is no dial tone. i have already told the modem to redial if the line is dropped and i tried putting for commas in front in the dial number. im out of ideas any one got any suggestions??

In edwido secuirity suite i all of the tabs have no labels or names. i tried to reinstall it but that did not work any suggestions

cheers i have already got that anti malware package, and i found a program to customize firefox cant remember what it is. just does all the pipelining stuff and things like that also what are wrong with these...
