just an off thought as I have no idea what your problems entail however, the XP SP3 update may cause some issue and you may consider not updating that one. To my understanding, it was a cumulative update with some developer additions thrown in. for me, I didn't need the additions or desire to install all those updates that I had previously declined. good luck.

[quote]I can't believe you talk all this stuff about how bad Google is with data collecting and data mining and phoning home when MS and Windows do the same thing.[/quote] you're probably correct on many levels. a cursory review of Bing's privacy policy sure does indicate that they collect data in order to provide a better web surfing experience for the user (NOT my words). there is also a statement directly related to targeted advertising. I would also assume that MS will make money

gotta go with Starkers on this one. I kinda think that people that don't safeguard their privacy as much as they can are only asking for trouble down the line. there is so much data gathered and stored on most people each day already. and while there are those that say it is for innocous purposes/reasons, that could change with the storke of the pen. face it, it's going to occur regardless, the least one can do is to be choosie to whom they wish to share data with.

two things; 1. I'm posting to the thread so that it is in my "my replies" list for future reference. a lot of great information, thank you to all who have posted the info. 2. sniveling - this information will probably never make it into the program documentation or to any wiki page. the lack of appropriate help files is appalling.

I went ahead a bought a used PSP-X on amazon for $40us. side note; there was a psp7 used being sold for $175, wtf, the program originally sold for about $80. edit: that free one mentioned had a nag purchase screen and some third party reporting add on that would disable psp if removed. the link that was referred to also included registry edits that was suppose to remove both, but worth mentioning.

I seem to remember an article on making round buttons with shine with back lighting within the button. I did a search in the "articles" for "button" which resulted in 531 pages being returned, daunting. this article was probably two years ago. does anyone remember this article or even is there a better way to obtain this type of information/tutorial???
