There is an easier way to remove MSN Messenger from XP/IE6, which is here. Just download the zip and click on the nomsngr.bat file.

I almost had DVD's in linux working with DeCSS

but I couldn't make the audio and video work simultaneously :( Ah well, not worth it any more, considering that the DVD drive was replaced with a CD burner. Pi

All I need is a Radeon Card...

Then i'd buy Jaguar immediately for the Quartz Extreme!

It is mega-arousing/droolworthy.

Can you imagine

a beowulf cluster of these! (sorry, someone had to say that.) Anyway, this looks great. I wonder what would happen if they implemented a PalmPilot like this.... Pi

MSIE is really a crappy browser on X

On: Mac OS X Slow for Web Browsing?

I use it on 9, and it's great. Crashes less than Netscrape.

Just my 2 cents...

I hate spyware.

On: General Public Realizes KaZaa is Spyware

The idiots at my school continuously shove spyware on, things like gator, BonziBUDDY, and the like. My best friend is ad-aware :)

Of course, there's usually the teachers taht watch over your shoulder to see if you're installing anything and go to shout at you if you are. :(

:(... I don't boot x anymore

On: Apple Releases Mac OS X 10.1.4

i'm two versions behind, and my dad doesn't like it... It's because he's a solitaire/mega minesweeper addict, and those don't run in x, and he hates classic. Pi
