It was a MS Program that deleted some files without alerting me it would
do it on it's own.
I don't like it when unexpected things occur.
Computering is fun!

The two backup programs I have used on this XP and the Vista computers
has shown the Hidden Partition on the Acer box but never has shown a
Hidden Partition on this XP box.
That's why I don't think HP put one on it.
I don't really know, but I try learning what these things do.

That's good.

I like using it.
Remember to also download the Plug-In Package for the version You will use
in case one or some of them may be needed later on.

TKS, I tried it and I liked it so I keep on using it.

During the Easter Sunday service there was a hard rain shower hitting on
the roof over the Church, but when the service was ended the showers had
ended.
When does the freezing WX end for the Aland Islands?
My guess is You still have that "dirty old white stuff" on the ground
until maybe next month, is that correct?
