what email client do u use?

i prefer eudora because it allows me to cut and paste a whole "chunk" of email addresses into my address book and create a new group from that. unless someone can correct me, OE doesn't allow you to add them like that but instead you have to add them one by one.

Which MP3 search engines works with XP?

i personally like direct connect more than kazaa (although i haven't tried the others). but i like DC more because there's whole mess of good hubs with all types of music, warez, and multimedia. give it a shot, and check out the evil dc hubs as well. btw, very nice setup.
