As the happy owner of a new laptop I thought I'd star this question and work out a schedule for myself, download some more anti spyware and look after my new toy.

I started to cut and paste some of the better "thumbed" answers then realised that with 1578 answers I would be at it for days and at the end might still have dozens of conflicting opinions.

So should I just wait until the question closes for a best answer?

Should I just pick up on the more frequently mentioned actions/programs? (spybot & c cleaner etc.)

Should I stick with what came pre-installed and just cross my fingers?

Whilst I (usualy)love sarcasm and a flippant answer, I'm hoping one of the big brains will come across this and take pity on me by giving me a clear, succinct answer (with links attached)
for which I will be very, very grateful!

Thank you sooooo much for reading this far.

My mouse is wireless and optical and it's been working fine. I switched to another mouse for a week or so and it sucked so I wanted to go back to my wireless optical one, and it won't work. It has a little monitor thing that plugs into the "mouse" outlet in the computer, and I plug it in, but I can't remember how to get it to recognize my mouse. I have lost the user's manual also.

I always used to be able to open all sorts of image files (JPEG, JPG, BITMAP....etc) which are saved on my desktop using Windows Picture and Fax Viewer. However a week ago I dicovered that i cannot do this anymore and i can only open them using MS-Paint which doesnt have slideshow capability.
The strange thing is all other image files saved anywhere else other than the desktop open easily with Windows Picture and Fax viewer!! does anyone have an explanation? solution?
