I do have some material I do not wish to see disappear – so I back it up to CD with every addition or change. Simple, quick, and immediately available. While for very large files it could be a bit of a hassle, it would be worth it.

There is a cooperative group of traders/researchers/writers on futures and futures options. We decided a long time ago to have a central archive, which would up in Australia...still not sure how that came about. Each 'member' keeps a copy of some other member's writings, and also sends them off to the archive. And, of course, the author (I should suppose) keeps a copy of their own stuff, so there are presumably 3 copies of everything at any given time.

I was going to get a hell of a ribbing, at least, though -- even though no permanent loss could have resulted.

That sounds like a pretty good system. The backups would be safe even in a major local catastrophe.

I had to go visit all the guns I have on lay-away. It's a Friday tradition.

Picked up my new skeet gun today, a 1991 Browning 28 ga reproduction of the Winchester Model 12. New in Box!

Also stopped at the Albuquerque Gun Show. I never knew that when a seller says 98%, he means how much finish is gone. :( Looked for vintage Smiths and Colts (1920s to 1950s) and didn't really see anything worth buying.

Low disk/memory space is probably related to graphics downloaded from internet files. Change the amount of disk space used for internet to a lower amount. Change the number of days to keep in history to less than a week. Delete all cookies (on and offline) and temporary internet files, then restart. If you're getting that message, your outlook won't be the only problem you'll have. Hope this helps. If you need more help let me know.

What would you recommend?

My computer is set to 1200MB of space to use. If it starts running slow, I just clean out the internet files. Trojans, worms and spyware can also wreak havoc on your system. Do you have a software to combat it? In my experience McAfee is the best.

I have the Norton. My computer is a mess. I also get a Rundll32 error. I am disconnecting it tonight and it is going to the Dr. for a check up. Thank you for your help.
