If you are asking if people on this forum are interested in such discussion I'd have to suggest that the answer is no. Previous mentions of the activity have attracted no interest whatsoever here.

None do. The bunch of crap was the contention that Islam teaches people to do that. I'd suggest you actually take the time to read Islamic texts before making stupid, unsubstantiable claims like...

Make polite, interesting, intelligent, helpful and well-typed posts. Wait in hope that someone will notice and award you rep points :D

Format and fresh install is by far the preferred method. Ensure you back up dat to external media beforehand, if you don't wish to lose it.

I'd have to agree. The problem you describe is not a 'feature' of Service Pack 2 by any means. You almost certainly have some form of virus or malware on your system, and the installation of the...

The only change I'd suggest, I reckon, would be to ditch the floppy drive and include a 3.5" Fan controller unit instead.
