hmm shit is tight. pretty good there. i usually shop 4 shit off of ebay, so ill try 2 get myself sumthin good. the best thing about my pc is my vid card.

btw you think its a good idea to ditch IE ? cause everytime i click on a corrupted link, i get spyware and browser/search hijacks and they stay on my drive, even when i reformat it.

Yes ditch IE, you'll be better off with an alternative, such as FireFox.

If you uncheck "allow third party browser extentions" in the advanced tab in internet options...you won't get so many hijacks....but I found that there isn't that big of a difference in security between SP2-IE and FireFox since Firefox feeds from your settings in Internet Options anyways. Still a big fan of FireFox though.

Ekk, why in the world would you format an 80gig drive with fat32, you should convert that to NTFS.

The 3000+ in my processors name is supposed to mean it performs equal to a 3.0Ghz Intel processor, and I would recommend getting at least another 256MB's or RAM if not a couple 512MB.

I see your getting TV-Nihon's subs of PGSM, if you haven't watched any of it yet, I believe your going to like it.   But let me just recommend ditching the BitLord, Azureus has been very good for me and I think you'd like it too, although I prefer the older version 2.2.0.2, which you can get from their download archives.

edit:
Just seen in your screenshot there, BitLord offers a pay version to download with out uploading, that is a scam.  BitTorrent is free, and it is built upon sharing, getting and giving.  You should always upload about the same as you have downloaded, I know some trackers that enforce this.  Take my advice Yuna and get rid of it, you can continue your downloads where you left off with a new client, you don't have to start over.  If you want a list of clients to choose from I'll gladly PM one to you.

Personally I use Azureus, which uses Java, but you may like others better such as BitTornado or ABC.
