DrvClonerXP 1.1 ~ free
http://home.carolina.rr.com/lexunfreeware/DrvClonerXP/DrvClonerXP.htm
(similar in some respects to Ghost and Drive Image, but free!)
Copies a drive partition's structure sector-by-sector, byte-for-byte
directly to another drive partition, giving you an exact reproduction
(clone) of your original partition!  
No intermediate file is created (like DrvImagerXP below), just direct
partition to partition low level structure copying.
(For Win2000/XP operating systems using FAT32 or NTFS file systems)

Tina's FrontPage Tips, by Tina Clarke

HYPERLINK TARGET NEW WINDOW:

In FrontPage - you can add the target in the
insert hyperlink dialog box:

FP2000:
Under the address box is the "optional" section
of the dialog box click the pencil icon to bring up
the target frame dialog box and choose "New
Window" from the menu. Click the OK button.

FP2002:
Click the Target Frame button on the right of the
insert hyperlink dialog box and choose "New
Window" from the menu.  Click the OK button.

This will insert target="_blank" into your tag,
which will open the link in a new browser
window:

NOTE: One should do this for each link and not
tick the 'set as page default' box in the 'Target
Frame' dialog box as this will also make your
own site links pop up. This is not a good idea for
your own links (your pages in your site). It
should only be used for outside links to other
sites.

No More Cd's!

http://nomoreaolcds.com/

Why we are doing this:  "We represent all who are sick of
receiving unwanted AOL cds. By sending us your unwanted AOL,
Netscape, or  CompuServe cds, you can help us make a statement.
Once we have 1,000,000 collected, we will make our quest across
America to give them all back to their rightful owner, AOL and
say "stop doing this". Don't throw them away or get mad, send'em
to us and we'll all end this wasteful practice
while sharing a laugh or two."

Ctrl to Select Multiple Items

Want to perform an action -- for example, Delete -- on some, but
not all, items in a given window? Hold down the Ctrl key as you
select items individually. Once the whole group you need is
selected, right-click one item and choose the desired command (or
use the menus to select a command).

Antivirus software is a good choice to scan your system for possible viruses, 
however no virus scanner is 100% effective as manufactures cannot keep up with 
the rapid change of viruses that happens daily.
Be sure to update yours regularly.

I also welcome any submissions about new products, web pages, or articles of

"MikesWhatsNews" believes in giving credit where credit is due but at imes 
deadlines and information that is very important to readers we accidentally 
misspost an item.

If you believe something to be miscredited, or you know the author of one of 
the articles which we have posted as 'unknown', please do let us know so we can 
correct the information where applicable.

Many times in a article you may see a click here for more information, or to go 
to a link, these often will not work, as the original information, was taken 
from a page with HTML links. This is when you will want to go to the webpage 
indicated in the article, ++ ,for 'the rest of the story'
***MfM*** indicates that I am adding my own information to a particular    
article.
