Hehe ! .. VERY VERY stable ! Especially ie6 !
shit .. wait till u get a ie worm :o
I got one very nasty from some stupid cj that made signup at my site ..
Every time i opened ie it starts another session in background and start downloading something .. :confused:
Never knew what - i leaved it for 5 min and it consumed about 10Mb of my band
I erased all cookies , all bookmarks ,etc .. nothing happened.. in the end I had 2 delete the wonderful Win Me .. hehe
I understand that it can b removed with regedit .. but shit .. IE6 SUCKS
Take care !

Should be running anti-virus with full updates... I never used to but the net is getting worse, alot of CJ sites I got to come up with Virus warnings... anyway use Opera and your safe from everything!

ndy: what has IE to do with WinXP? i personally HATE Ie 6.0 so i donīt use it. thats it.. but XP is for sure the best shit MS ever released.. its working GR8 for me.. no fucking bluescreens and shit. and as Wildzero said: get a Virus scanner and you donīt have problems!

The Chosen: i had a problem with my sound card too.. well that one was about 4 years old. i donno how old your card is but i bought a new card for a few bucks which is now working perfectly on XP.

Nope -- that was not a virus man ..
it is a bug in ie6 .. i have Nav updated in realtime and still no viruses found ..
And about that post with ie+win xp .. well since ie is integrated in win .. it sucks
I was on microsoft page and 1 day after they released it --20Mb of updates and pathches :D
I think it's a good os .. but since they boost one windows every 1/2 year i don't think that they check everything ..
My personal oppinion is that win 95 osr2 is the best .. 2 bad it doesn't work with Amd athlon processors .. :(
Take care !

What's wrong with you guys? How can you work on XP ? XP is for playing, I tried XP and was very dissapointed, the whole desktop is so different that my productivity droped to almost zero. Is is stable you say ? Really? Hmm... Win2k Pro is stable too, I hardly ever reboot. So what's the whole deal with XP , can someone explain to me why you like it so much ?

taskbar>right click>properties>classic task bar

or something like that. you can turn off all the fancy start menu and still benefit from whats under the hood. and there is a lot of changes for better.

ir you suffer w9x do it today, if your w2k upgrade(possibly wait for update) your antivirus/ghost/firewall etc.. then do it tomorrow ;)

well worth the effort.
www.grisoft.com (http://www.grisoft.com) for AVG antivirus (free & xp compatible)
get xonealarm pro from here>> http://www.zonelabs.com/zapupdate/zonelabs_zap26357_update_1.htm (pay or find a licence)

that's exactly what I'm talking about - win200 is strictly a 32 bit OS so it doesn't need to set up virtual machines like other backwards compatible operating systems do - and because of that, programs don't crash as much and it manages memory like a champ -since it doesn't need to deal with 16 bit apps

Ah! I discovered why messenger was loading sometimes! It was the damn outlook express that was causing it. Die, messenger, die! :D

XP is the best OS for a personal computer/laptop. Just accept/fear it!
