    So here I am transferring my essay from laptop to usb key to go to computers to print it (cos have neglected to get new laptop set up with iprint and all) and the usb wont unconnect, it keeps saying 'the usb cannot be stopped!' which is a) frightening and b) a bit of a hindrance cos I need to hand in my essay. How do I made it stop?!

    well at worst you will lose the file from the usb key, u wont destroy the key, if you lose it just stick it on again.
