    Exactly .. Really should get a new CPU user. Getting sick of the guy a this stage.

    Anyway back on topic. Suppose we could add Limewire into this, or is that still used ?

    Come to think of it, I havn't seen my screensaver in donkeys

    I'd say glittery, sparkeling mouse cursors and colourful screensavers are aimed at the lowest form of intelligence, teenage girls. The kind of people who have ringtone battles on busses

    Wavs were really popular before mp3's were around, I remember dialing up on my 14.4k modem and downloading endless wavs, screensavers, wallpapers and the odd porn pic because yes; porn was once quite hard to come by in the early days!

    No pun intended.

    Hahaaaa.... those guys still downloading those pointless apps.

    I've been fortunate enough and earned such a good online reputation as to have a Nigerian billionaire pass on many millions of dollars to me because of unusual legal circumstances in his country, all I had to do was give my bank details for the processing fee and will soon receive my 300 million dollars payout. :)
