What gets me is if I obtain the original video legally then why do they care what I do with it in my own home? /rhetorical Just because I have rape tools doesn't make me a rapist no more than woman has to be a prostitute. These guys are treating all of us like we're criminals when we haven't even been accused never mind charged with anything. This whole deal with the RIAA the MPAA ticks me off it's because of their attitudes that many do all that they can to turn the tables on them. /rant --+-- Wayne D.

Re: [H] Any MythTV users out there?
The only reason that I haven't gone that route is because I am a satellite user and there isn't a decoder card for PCs yet. Howver, at CES DirectTV announced a deal with Microsoft that would result in a MCE box that would PVR satellite using the same technology as CableCard for cable. Sounds great, but I am not putting down 1 cent until I see the DRM.

[H] Disk tools?
What's everyone using for disk tools these days? I am still using OO Defrag 2000. I am looking for something with the functionality of the old Norton products (speed disk, error check, etc) without all the current Norton crap. -- Brian
RE: [H] Disk tools?
I use OO and like it; but I've become a big fan of Acronis stuff (http://www.acronis.com/) Good products for what they do. They've got some new stuff coming this summer, that without breaking NDA I can tell you is pretty freaking slick. -- FIGHT BACK AGAINST SPAM!

Re: [H] ? Spyware or just wierd install..
Are the time and date correct? I have seen Citrix act weird when time and date are not sync'd or close.

RE: [H] ? Spyware or just wierd install..
Yeah, they are. I'm going to try something really goofy tomorrow.. install VPC to see if a VPC PC on this box can access out; if it can, then I know that it's something with the Windows on that PC... -- FIGHT BACK AGAINST SPAM!
