How Do You Combine Removable Drives In To One Big Drive?
(7) Now this is very interesting and confusing at the same time. I have been told that it is something
that is good useful and can be done. To combine all the removable drives you might have and put them
all in to your main Hard Drive so then you have a bigger memory. The reason I am asking how to do
this is because I always seem to have problems wioth my PC as it seems to run brilliant for a couple
of weeks and then it goes slow like a snail but I've never been able to find out why? Would
combinign all of my removable drives with my main Hard Drive make my PC run a lot....

Adware, Malware, Spyware, Oh My!
Do these guys actually have a life? (10) Okay, I just got through getting rid of some "MovieLand" thing that installed itself onto my

pay a $90 fee to make the popups go away! I was just about ready to sue! I finally
downloaded the Yahoo toolbar to get rid of it, though... But my main point here is, why do these
adware people do this? Are they just genuinely slime? I mean, their entire job would be making other
people's life miserable, so that they can advertise for some company! Now the last ....

Why Do Women Go Insane Over The Toilet Seat?
(34) My wife got on my case this morning about my leaving the toilet seat lid up during the night when I

took a seat. My response to her was that she never lifts the lid for me after she's done, so
why do I need to put the lid down when I'm finished. Why can't everyone just look out for
themselves when it comes to peeing? Is this too much too ask? Do women not want equal rights in the
toilet area?....
