I would love to get rid of the pop up asking me if I really want to do what 
I want to do but other than that and the fact that some messages I delete in 
Windows mail actually disappear rather than stay in the Delete file so I can 
find them if I need to, I like Vista.  I have one computer with XP and one 
with Vista.  I just got the old XP hooked up to the internet and only half 
the updates will install.  So I guess one is as big a pain in the a$$ as 
another.
