I have a friend online, we've never met in person. I'd like to send them something while respecting their anonymity and retaining my own. Any suggestions?

I have DVDfab. i want to rip the main movie only. and the finished result to be about 700mb in avi. format. i want it only on my hardrive.

For example.. i used DVDfab and ripped a movie into my computer, but the result was about 4 vob. files and the size was about 4gigs.

so how can i get these 4 vob. files into ONE big file. and how can i get it to 700mb. i do not want to burn anything on a disc, i just want it on my hardrive

thank you.

I mean, I understand that it means they want me to go over their story and check for mistakes or ways to make it better, but what do I do? Do I send the document back to them with my "corrections" on it (like in Word) or do I just send them an email telling them what to do?

I'm kind of new to the whole beta thing .... =P

Please give me as many details as possible especially from personal experience. I really like Counter Strike and would want to be able to play games like that but realize that brand new games may be a stretch.

I am between Dell and toshiba any recommendations on that would be helpfull as well, looking to spend 500-600.

Thanks

Recently, I when I was logged on, my mouse stopped working. Thinking nothing of it (I have a wireless keyboard/mouse), I unplugged the receiver, and tried to re-connect the keyboard/mouse. However, I still couldn't move the mouse/keyboard. So I tried a corded keyboard/mouse (using PS2) and it still wouldn't work. I've tried rebooting, and it still wont work (I'm using a different computer right now). However, I know that the keyboard/mouse/hardware isn't defective because I was able to boot onto Ubuntu (Linux) via a live CD, and everything worked just fine (keyboard/mouse). Regardless, I still can't get into Vista...I get stuck at the log-on screen (I've got a password, and safe mode doesn't work). My only method of input is a media center remote (plugs into USB ... but that only 'types' numbers (which do, however, appear). I've got absolutely no idea what to do.

I can't afford any programs I'd have to purchase to get rid of the five viruses it now has. Are there any programs I can try with a free trial or anything else to get rid of them? All I know is that what I have is a trojan. If you know of anything I can do please provide a few details on how to do it, I'm computer impaired!

Thank you so much.

My anti-virus has found 2 infected files that have been quarenteed. What do I do now? I only have 2 options:
Delete File Permantly
Restore file

I don't think I want to restore file because I can not fix it. If I delete it, will that take care of the infection?
