And you, JV, are living proof that there are more equine hindquarters
than forequarters.

You might actually try addressing the issues stated by the original
poster, instead of trolling.


Keith, I can't address the transfer program since I never had need to
use it, but when I uses windows Mail, it behaved properly. with regard
to the sidebar, did you add any gadgets to it? If so, restart it.
simply typing "sidebar" in the seach box will lead you to it, remove the
gadgets you added, then shut the sidebar down, you should see a window
with an option to start sidebar when you start the computer. Be sure
that box is checked.

I've been running Vista on both my desktop and laptop. and much prefer
it to XP.

JV, stop talking through your boxers, which by the way, should be
changed more often.
