Train, Last defrag using your method in 6 min some odd seconds and came back around and hit it again with time under 3min. This for 10.3GB hard drive.

Got an IBM pc, 800mhz processor, for a new GPS system we're putting in and guess what? Computer ops didn't think we would use the 2000 OS so they deleted a bunch of it. Having seen the errors of their ways, might just be reinstalled come Monday. Remember always decrease capabilities. Whooosh.

The defrag time will probably remain the same from now on. Depends on how much you have on it.
Bet you install Monday, then find out how to turn off things like we do in msconfig/startup.

It's been a while, so i thought to treat you to another sampling from The Lost Annals of Bistro:

In the Year 2347 B.D. (Before DOS), bistro and his evil twin Ortsib were pitting all their cyber-forces against each other in what has since become known as "The Great Cyber-War between a Good Guy and a Bad Guy".
Bistro's forces, against all odds (which later became a popular rock song), conquered the evil forces of Ostrib. As punishment, bistro vanquished (Latin for "got rid of") his evil brother Ostrib to a parallel universe. (Ostrib's evil cyber-forces decided to become what is called "good" to avoid the same fate). In the parallel universe, Ostrib made use of the forbidden art of "Marr-Kut-Ting"; a technique used to hypnotize the masses, making them believe they need to buy things they really don't need. He used this dark art to develop and sell a computer operating system which he named "Macrohard Shutters". The product sold like parallel hotcakes and 90% of that parallel population bought it. Even though it crashed their systems often, they were so enamoured by it that they continued to use it by means of "patches". And so it continues to this day (or parallel day over there...). These events have lent themselves to the theory that perhaps the universes are more parallel than previously believed. And so it goes on....and on....and on... Marvel at these things, little children. Ponder them in the night. Forget them during the day...

Yup, bet on it.

I am curious about something. Over on 98 on Gfunk's thread about cookies, of which you put something in that I am going to try, I felt like there's paranoia there. Why? If you use a cell phone you can be evesdropped on too. Or are we in fact trying to scramble Big Brothers brain with what we do. Maybe it creates jobs.

I am bulding a system and have gotten to choosing a mother board, I was wondering why did you chose the Abit BX 133-RAID mobo?

I felt like there's paranoia there.

There is more out there than you would believe. Surprised me.
But, what I like about it is that short sheets all those invisible addresses that we can not see in our browser and the results are faster surfing. So, here it is again.

In IE go to tools, select internet options. Select the security tab.
Click the restricted sites icon and then the sitesbutton.
in add this website to zone.
[type in] *.doubleclick.com
hit add button.
[type in] *.doubleclick.net
hit add
ok on out
end of doubleclick problem and Ad-Aware or optout will never find another on your machine while these are in there.
What works for me.
Also read here http://grc.com/cb-faq.htm#privacy-auto
Get Nasties.Reg and get rid of a bunch of those things. Helps speed up surfing also.

I use the nasties.Reg , find it faster than typing all those web address in. Plus I have added some.

With the Raid setup [ATA100} you can have 4
ide devices and On the ATA100 4 harddrives.
For normal use cdrom and cd-rw and a ATA100 harddrive all can be set for master on their own cannel. So, no compatability problems.

Not sure which one of my componants is responsible for this little feature, but I sure do like it. When I choose Shut Down from the Shut down menu instead of Restart, it does exactly that. It turns itself off. Cool.
