I oops-ed again.

The Spanish dictionary names [long Spanish names] files names were tool 
long for my Roxio burner to handle this time.  Why it worked last, I do 
not know.

Second, my 4.1 gig disc size had some extra stuff in the main folder, so 
the Web Site folder [the one that I have all my web pages as sub-folders 
off from] gives me only 3.6 GB used.

The anti-virus free list is large for Windows.  I use[d] AVG, Comodo, 
and Avast!.  Windows Firewall is ZoneAlarm and Comodo.  Right now I am 
using Comodo's complete Internet package [free version] on my Vista Laptop.

I wonder if putting my list site would be "proper".  It is not a truly 
"professional" site, and not maintained often, but it has a lot of 
software listed on its page.

Then there are the Malware, Registry, and other cleaners.  Defrag and 
other Utility packages.  doPDF for Windows PDF printer.  The list goes 
on.  I decided 4 or 5 years ago to make a list off my lungstrom.com 
domain to keep it straight in my head and have a place to point people 
to.  You are linked to the individual sites, not mine, for the actual 
download files.  I did that so I would not have to keep it up-to-date 
with the most current versions of the install files.

My USB box that I bought to help move files from the old drive to the 
new one or new computer, broke a few years ago.  I have not forked out 
the $25 or $30 to get the modern ones used for temp. drive setup with a 
"box" to put the drive into.  I had a laptop that I could not fix, since 
it was so infected with virus and malware, I took the drive out of that 
laptop and plugged it into my Vista Laptop's USB port and cleaned all 
the mess up while that drive tried in vain to infect my laptop's drive.  
There were over 1000 malware, virus, and alike found on that Insurance 
man's drive.  It seemed that he never heard of using an anti-virus 
package.  I wonder how many people at his work place got infected from 
his laptop over the years.
