Everyone has heard the rumors of how 'evil' myspace is, and the dangers of it. Is it dangerous? Or is it the choices of the users who put their entire life on their profiles?

I have a monitor, a 21" CRT monster, that I just LOVE. Recently it has begun to develop a shadow across the bottom quarter of the screen after its been on a bit, sometimes the top as well. I specifiy 'shadow' instead of 'black' because those sections of the monitor don't become impossible to see, its just like they are literally in a dark shadow, you can read through it.

Ive noticed that giving it a good shake or an emotionally satisfying whack on the side makes it temporarily go away, but it always comes back.

What is this shadow caused by? I have a practically non-existant budget so if repair is an option I would like to pursue that, but I know monitor repair is a tricky thing. I am aware certain parts going bad (ie the cathode) make it cheaper to buy a new monitor, but the symptoms make me think this is not that, I just don't know what it is.

Any monitor-wise folks familiar with this shadow effect that can advise? Tossing it is a last resort for me, if even an option

Thanks!

So, I formatted my external hard drive and I need the data back. Any suggestions on how to recover ALL or most of my data? I haven't written anything on top of the data yet. Are there any tools or programs out there that might help me (ideally freeware)?

My desktop computer has two handy "USB 1.1 ports" on the front (it also has 2 or 3 in the back).

I'd like to upgrade my front USB ports from 1.1 to 2.0 using a "USB 2.0 PCI card" if at all possible.

So, my question is this: If I buy a USB 2.0 card that has 2 "external" and 2 "internal" ports, can I use that card's 2 internal ports to "change" my two exixting USB 1.1 ports so that they become version 2.0? If so, how is this done?

I'd like to have the USB 2.0 capability on the front of my computer where my 2 USB 1.1 ports are now.

If this can't be done, how are the "internal" USB 2.0 ports on a PCI card supposed to be used?

I'm using Windows XP Home Edition.

There are like 10 or 15 of those in my add or remove programs in my control panel. Is it bad to remove them? Will it mess up my computer because it says if you remove this,some of your programs might not run correctly.
