Very. I was reading some find law stuff a few weeks ago and
think there are some real problems out there with lawmakers.

In most states it is legal to have sex with a person over 16
but it is illegal to have pictures or video of a sexual
nature of a person under 18.

Yeah the CONSENT law is interesting at best. Funny part is she can CONSENT
then afterwads change her mind. hmmm, very scary indeed.

There was a very badly done sci-fi movie about 10 years ago,
it had a scene with lawyers negotiating one-night-stands in
a bar, to verify ages, benefits and other details. Very
funny at the time. Did you ever think that the reason that
actor spent $50,000 on hookers was because that was cheaper
than a California palimony suit.

LOL, a heck of a lot cheaper.

Problem is so many presidents before him were just as foolish just lucky
enough to not get caught. He was foolish to do it simply because he spent
his entire presidency under the spotlight and magnifying glass.

Whatever the case, it was darn foolish to do while president, especially
under the glare of all that publicity and with so many people looking for
any opening to topple your presidency.

bigshay8695,

Your post leaves much to be desired. We have no idea if you are asking this
because your PII 300MHz with 128MB RAM seems slow or if something has
happened. How about a little more information added to this thread on the
newsgroup?

There may have been a time when your slow PC ran quite nicely, when windows would boot up promptly. Just figure out the date. It might have been 1 week or 1 month ago. Perform a system restore back to the time when it was not so slow, of course after savin
g all your critical data. If this sounds too drastic then run msconfig and disable all the startup items and services and reboot. If your PC still takes over 15 minutes to bootup then ensure all critical updates are installed, run adaware, run antivirus sc
an, perform disk cleanup, defag your system harddrive and then run the network wizard again ensuring that the correct options are entered this time around. Check your device manager is not reporting any hardware that is not installed correctly and ensure t
o update the drivers for each entry which is reporting a problem. Also check to ensure the IDE channels are set to DMA. Finally uninstall your anti-virus/firewall especially if it Nortons and then reinstall DirectX. Finally, if all else fails, reinstalling
your OS from a reformatted drive and reinstalling you applications may be quicker to do than trying to discover what is causing the problem in the first place.

First, be sure your antivirus software is up to date and run a scan of your
system or you can scan your system online at the following site:
http://housecall.trendmicro.com/, Just click"Scan now, it's Free" under
Scan Your PC.

Second, download, install and run Ad Awa
www.lavasoftusa.com

The issue you describe is a common symptom of having a virus or malware on
your system so it's best to rule those out before trying anything else.
