I had 120, just did it a couple days ago. It's all gone now.
My computer feels so nice and tidy now. Kazaa and Morpheus
are dickheads.

I suppose no one ever reads those agreements when you
install software. :)

You'd probably never install the thing if you did!

rid of the crap... did that too w/ realplayer -> oops...

Heh, that's true... I've never read a disclaimer or anything
like that in my life. I just click on ''next'' without
thinking. :-)
