so i’m trying to rar my sound library that is about 6 gigs, this way i can burn it onto some disks. obviously 6 gigs wont fit on a disk, so i tell winrar to split up the archive into bits of 700mb. apparently, you need to type the “mb” and not just 700, because the program thinks its just 700 b i guess. all i know is 30 seconds into it i had 20,957 litte rar files on my desktop. thank god i aborted mission. here is a picture so you can all laugh at my blunder… ![](http://www.redgolgi.com/temp/uhoh.jpg) ---

hahah that is funny 🙂 I use my desktop for everything I download - if I Dont, chances are I would forget I even got it! I have to keep my desktop very clean so if there is a new icon on there, I notice - it’s kind of like reminding myself. Very good Red… that’s a great pic 🙂 ---

For some reason i delete my cookies manualy. Once there was about a thousand or so. I opened the cookies folder, went edit select all and instead of hitting the delete key i hit enter and then spent the next 1/2 hour closing 1000 .txt files. I hate when that happens. Dave ---

Hehehe, thats funny 🙂 When I was younger, with our old b/w Dos PC I deleted the autoexec.bat file and config.sys file because I didn’t know what they were, and they were making a mess of the prompt… Needless to say my dad was a bit annoyed with me! After that he backed each of them up in 3 seperate places so he wouldn’t have to write them out again!
