LT,
Regarding your comment on reinstalling Windows because the computer slows down. How often do you change the oil in your car, and have it serviced and lubricated? More importantly, why? Yes, I will agree that it's not quite the same as changing the Operating System on your computer, but it is a valid analogy. Things get gunked up, either in your engine, or on the disk and OS of your computer.

I didn't do a reinstall on XP for years, but I did do a reinstall of Windows 98SE on a yearly basis. I have Windows 7 on my computer now, and while programs themselves may crash, the OS is stable. Maybe in three years or so, I'll wipe the drive to get rid of all the crap, and reinstall it...or the next new OS, but I'm happy with this now.

I'm blessed watching God do what He does best. I've had a few rough years, and I'm still not back to where I want to be, but I'm on the way and things are looking far better now than what they were!
