    So I bit. How do I lock one partition from being viewed from the other? Right now I'm on my regular partition with all my personal stuff, but I can still browse the files of the WFP partition. Is there any way I can stop that? At least stop this partition from being browsed from the other partition?

    One way to get this easier is put it on a separte hdd, boot it up 2 times a week and check nbr, then turn it off, hahahaa!!! boot to primary hdd, and back to normal.

    Now THAT is an idea! I have a spare backup HDD that I might use.

    I've noticed something VERY peculiar. Since signing up for the program and downloading their program and installing, today, I have a strange tiny blacked out rectangle in the upper left portion of my screen, with 2 tiny greenish rectangles inside it. But only when I'm on my desktop, not in any other full screen app, AND, when I tried to capture a screen shot, and copy and paste a tiny portion of my screen to put in paint to show it here in a screenshot, it disappeared. Strange indeed. Never had this before ever.

    I installed the program as well, and I don't have any of the symptoms you have.

    It's free. I'm doing the feedback program on my lappy. It sends you surveys once every two weeks to do.

    I signed up for the program since I can just keep it on my laptop and power that up. This way, I don't have to worry about MS keeping track of what I'm really doing. I'll just set my laptop to burn some files, MSN, and some other boring stuff. I'm sure by the end of the 3 months, MS will think I'm a boring guy.

    The only problem is where can I choose the gift that I want? What if I reformat the laptop during the 3 month period?

    They have ended the free gift promotion without mention apparently, but they still allow you to run the tool and take survey of course.

    So not gift? What's the point then?
