This is a video file that's about 748 MB. Is it possible to be burnt onto a CD instead of a DVD and work the same? Is there a way to compress it or something just so it fits?

Thanks for any help!

Or is there any way that I can protect my files on a USB memory stick?
Right clicking and selecting Sharing and Security only offers me the option to share (which is the opposite of what I want to do).

If I open the drive and select Sharing and Security on individual files, there is an option to Make This Folder Private, but it is greyed out and cannot be selected.

Any ideas please. Thanks in advance.

Hi, I am trying a choose a good laptop to buy. But I am having a problem choosing the right processor. I have seen a couple of names like Athlon 64, Athlon XP, Pentium 4M, Pentium M, Turino, Celeron, Sempron etc.

I don't know much about processors, so I have no idea which one of these are good. I am mostly going to use the laptop for internet access, and some gaming. And mobility is not an issue because I am going to have it plugged in most of the time. I just want a processor which is reliable, fast, and cheap.

Thanks for the help in advance.

I have uploaded my self composed musical CD to Windows Media player, and have sent the file as an attachment, about 30 mins of music to myself and cc'd and bcc'd to friends, and a window appears that it is 'not able to open'. It reads,"make sure it's spelled correctly" and so on... I close that small window, then the Media Player opens but cannot play on what is called playlist 1 (new XP software.switched from 2000 pro), but actually there are two playlist 1's and if I click on playlist 1, in the far upper right hand corner, a small decending box appears with the other Playlist 1. It also has favorites, songs I rated...etc.. I click on thatPlaylist 1 and it works fine..except for a 1/2 second break/skip at the end of some tunes. HELP!! I'm getting closer, but still frustrated as hell!! No one else that I cc or bcc to can open the file. I haven't tried just "send to" to anyone else,, could it be THAT simple? cc and bcc will not forward files? I would'nt think so......
THANX

My site, so for, is set up where people can enter their url for an image into a form, then the form sends the url to the database. then I have another php program that access the url and displays the picture. I was wondering if there is a way I can keep people from submitting links to photos that are too big. I've tried the resize command, but it stretchs some of the photos that are smaller. Any advice?

I'm out-of-town for the moment and I wanted to know how I can efficiently utilize a proxy server in my current location. I'm trying to use Yahoo! Messenger (or MSN Messenger, Trillian, etc...) so I can talk to my family back home, except the stupid DNS Server here (it's a free WIFI Hotspot...) is blocking all access to ANY messenger service, saying that "all user-defined access is prohibited."

Damnit, I'm getting pissed off now. I don't necessarily feel like hauling my webcam all the way to the internet cafe and INSTALLING it for crying out loud. Of course, I could take the laptop with me... but it's closed right now. There's a huge gap between time zones from my family to me. The only time we can talk is either LATE at night for them... or LATE at night for me.

The WIFI hotspot is the only place that's pretty much open 24/7... except I can't get through!!

I have the Charon software, which sniffs out proxy servers from internet search sites... and I also have Mozilla firefox
