Is a script like a 32 bit batch file? like a dos batch file is a 16 bit way of running multiple commands from one instruction or event, or command? <<All they care about is using your bandwidth/information (and then someone else's) without paying for it. >> duh? how can someone use your bandwidth? Do you have to be offline for them to do that? Geez, those are 2 unrelated questions....sorry.
