Ok, quick question, I leave my PC on pretty much constantly (with occational restarts when it slows down a bit), but sometimes it can be on download for about a week solid. When I was growing up leaving the computer on overnight was a big no-no, but with newer PCs (this was top of the range about 7-8 months back from Dell) is it OK to leave them on for such long periods of time, or am I still buggering up my computer somehow?

Quick answer no with a but, Long answer Yes with a but.Keeping your computer on constantly will do it no immediate harm. However, make sure the cooling system is adaquate. Most PC's have a failsafe system built-in. The only real damage will be the fact that your components will wear out much faster, so backup your HDD.
Awesome, thanks dude, I back up everything I download anyway, so I should be ok, and I'll probably upgrade in a few years anyway.Ok, another lowering the tone question:Is it me, or does porn star Belladonna have the same tattoo as Hayabusa?

Ive got an eye toy, do you mean it'll work as a PC webcam? Do you just plug it into the usb socket? and if so. do you need any software?

I know this will have been asked before, but when I use the search feature, it tosses up all sorts of random finds in no apparent order.Can someone pimp me a free program to record webcam streams from MSN please?

No - but I suppose they're a little similar. Hayabusa's is a stylised bird-inspired thing - looks like either a wing or a head to me. 'Hayabusa' is Japanese for 'peregrine falcon'. Bella's is this annoying thing on her tits a Chinese dragon, apparently.

Is the internet being gay for anyone else? I can't access half the sites I try... Might just by my connection though?

Try not searching for "dirty well hung bummers". That'll do the trick.

I'm on BT and I was having mad connection problems all day yesterday. Seems to have righted itself now though.
That was/is my exact situation. Thanks a lot. :thumbsup:

Is the guy from the elephant.co.uk adverts really been dead since 2004?Not the one in the elephant suit.Somebody wrote into one of those "Ask.." column things and the answerer said that the guy has been dead since 2004 and elephant.co.uk got permission to keep on using the footage as a tribute to him.I think he worked as a production assistant who they just stuck in front of the cameras.Is this true?In the Sunday Mail up here for any Scottish readers.
