Hmm on the subject of windowsblinds, stardock also has a logon screen program of there own, LogonStudioXP. It's pretty good :)

Um yeah this is mine at the moment: I know it's just the default Media Center logon, but I'm just like using the Media Center themes :D This is for my non-Media Center Windows XP Pro SP2 partion. The Media Center partion is using a SOAD one :O

Hello and welcome etc etc :P

Firstly, I was using that as an example, I haven't used iTunes since the release of the ml_pod plugin for winamp Secondly, that's not ture either, DRM was hacked in Australia before it got off the ground, I'm sure the method has been around all over the world by now. Thirdly, that depends on what plugins you have. Sure they aren't meant to be supported but lots have been developed that work.

His board wouldn't be compatible with one of the more modern Intel CPU's maybe a Pentium for C at most, so upgrading to a newer CPU is out of the question. In Australia you'd have trouble finding the A or B classed chips, so you'll likely have the same trouble in the UK. You MIGHT be able to get a 2nd hand Pentium 4 2.4 GHZ C which will work in your motherboard if your are lucky, I can't be sure what limitation's you'll have with processors etc unless you quote your motherboard model + brand :P If you don't know it, use this program. If you do know it, use this program too, it will tell you about what kinda of socket your processor uses and whether you have RAMBUS RAM or whatnot. http://www.cpuid.com/download/cpu-z-135.zip Post with the info when you're done please, cause the stats you put down for Dave don't really tell anyone anything, they only allow for approximation :( If you have one of the earlier motherboards it may support RAMBUS RAM instead of DDR. if this is the case, I'd forget about upgrading anything and save for a new motherboard, processor, RAM and graphics card, it's pointless buying obselete products such as RAMBUS. Got any questions, PM me :P

Fix You and A Rush of Blood to the Head :O

iPods are evil :( It's impossible to alter the music files on them with out either iTunes, Winamp 5.2+, ephPod etc. Personally I'd reccoment and iRiver product instead. I know that iPod's support AC3s, WAVs and mp3s ("O rly?" you may ask? Yes lol jk) Um yeah iTunes (6 at least, unsure bout 7) converts music to either AC3 or mp3 formats if they were in another format, say WMA or MP4. Really, have a look at iRiver's first though :P

Hello :) Good to see you here. Hope you have a great time round here. :P :) Yay for Coldplay, REM and U2 :P

I wanted to be a police officer. In fact I still want to be a police officer :)

Hmm I don't know about anywhere else in the world, but they seem to be really keen on putting lawn bowls on TV on Saturdays here :( Complete with slow motion replays :o As if it isn't slow enough already O the fun :cry:

Norton Antivirus 2006 is pretty effective, though has some annoying faults such as letting the odd virus through. At the moment I'm involved in the beta test of Norton Antivirus 2007, basically it's more of the same. :( From personal experience, AVG is generally the best free Antivirus, Panda and Kaspersky have a couple of bad security faults... :(

Um that depends. If you are downloading music from a band which endorses or condones free downloads of their music (ie Beastie Boys), then all is well. But if you were going to download CD's from most commercial artists, (ie Metallica, which caused the infamous Napster to shutdown for sometime, and oppose free downloads of their music) then that would be illegal. There are minor technicalites throughout each Countries Copyright acts, but the chances are the files you download will be illegal. As has been said above, most countries are not to stringent in the upholding of their Copyright Laws, but still... :P

Fix You seems to be best fit for me. I find it easy to relate to I guess. :O Also it's the best Coldplay song ever :P

9/10 Fix You
