(TLDR summary: Moscow police act on many, many complaints by the Russian equivalent of the RIAA, which says the site does not have the authority to distribute its members' music even inside Russia [let alone outside], and go after AllOfMp3)

I got my hands on a 32mb flash stick. These seem cool because you can stick small, registry avoiding apps on them, and have them run on any machine. What applications can I put on here?
So far I have aedit, a cool little rich word editor in 300k.

I think I also have a backlight bleedthrough problem. PICS:

Should it look like this? The first picture is a little brighter than I see with my eye, but the others are fairly decent representations of what the backlight bleedthrough is. The upper left and right corners, and the lower left as well. Is this like your guys' monitors too? I'm guessing mine is pretty bad, but I really wanted to see what other people thought before RMAing it. Thanks.

XP Automatic updates shows a dialog that an update is available, ok I think, but I thought it was strange as they have changed to only update once a month or whatever, anyway, I open up the dialog to look what it is and this is shown:

Voit korjata ongelman asentamalla tämän Microsoftin julkaiseman HTTP.sys-päivityksen. Kun olet asentanut päivityksen, sinun on ehkä käynnistettävä tietokone uudelleen.
