I only have one thing to add, if you are really worried about particular emails, encrypt them or use a second service (where you are also poked, plotted and sold...). Either way, I am using gmail for my basic stuff and another service for my work/business items.

I have been finding that lately with WB I was noticing a system slowdown, especially as I lik
A multitasking system that really works, the ability to reinstall/repair without losing app info.
Running WB 4.5 and trying out the free version of Skin Studio. The skin I am doing is going well but I have an issue I cannot find a fix for. The progress bar at the bottom of the explorer window shows as a black and will not display. Running Xp SP2. Tried changing out to a new graphic but no help. Any ideas on what I am missing?
