I'm an idiot...

Blah
Just out of curiosity, how come it say that I last used aol on 11/13/01 in the add/remove programs thing when I use it constantly? It says that I use it frequently, but the date's wrong. I'm probably just not understanding something.

CDROM and CDRW Drives not working

lsavidge
I have read through this forum several times to find a solution to my problem, sadly without success. I have recently put a fresh install of Win2k on my machine in place of a stable Win98SE. Previously both CD drives worked as expected.

MSN Explorer???

Jedi Master
O. K. Silly question, but. . . When I set up WinXP, and added the additional programs, I unselected MSN Explorer. As far as I can tell, it's just a cutesy front end for Hotmail and MSN's web site. Is there any advantage to installing it?.

My custom fonts are not seen by others :(

Ron_Jeremy
If I add custom fonts to a simple web page I create using FronPage 2000 (or even Word 2000), how do I get other people to see the fonts when I post it on the 'Net? If I view the page from one of my other machines, none of my custom fonts appear.

Anyone familiar w/ NOD32 AV software?

SnapperOne
Have had it with Norton AV2000. Tired of partial scans, then a crash. Not too interested in 2002 based upon bad reviews and reports of the program being a system hog. Found some fairly glowing, hell, outstanding reviews on NOD32 out of Australia.
