Another program to think about is "winmx" hasn't been online really for a few years as it was taken offline. However there is a tweak whereby if you edit your hosts file it'll still work. ;-)

but shhhh, theres legit and non legit stuff on these searches, so use at your own peril..

p.s. peerguardian is something to think about as well as a precaution if you go down that avenue.

I've been in the car trade all my working life bar a few months and would not have previously looked or considered a Hyundai. However, these days they build what is one of the best cars in the world for the money. Even against more expensive rivals it stands up well in terms of equipment, safety, performance, ride and handling. The value for money stakes is a no brainer. As far as quality goes, in last years global survey done by one of the larger survey companies, they rated number three for lowest amount of warranty claims per 100 vehicles sold. No1 was Porsche, No2 was Lexus, No3 was HYUNDAI and No4 was Toyota!!! :shock: I consider them as a very serious contender in the current market! 8)

as for Ipods, well......I have loaded all 45 of my fav CD's on and I still have 5gig left!!! :shock: :shock:

I bought an FM cradle/charger/transmitter for the atiquated audio system in the Jeep which doesn't have an ipod jack!! But, as least this charges it as well. I had heard things about these transmitters, being that they don't work very well. But the one I bought works faultlessly! Happy days!

I've already scrolled through all the albums and selected a favourites compilation which includes my favourite songs from all my albums.
Here is the first 5 when I hit shuffle........

Let's get Retarded-Black eyed peas-Elephunk
Dirty Creature-Split Enz-The living enz
Once in a lifetime-Talking heads- Remian in light
One (Blake's got a new face)-Vampire Weekend-Apocolypso
Let Me Be-Xavier Rudd- Triple J Hottest 100
8)

Not sure about that - Limewire files are saved straight onto my Itunes library (which came with the Ipod Shuffle), and they work without any issues ? At least I haven't experienced any problems yet - been on Limewire now for about 2 years...

Marty - good news about Limewire peer-to-peer is that there are heaps more files other than audio files....... ;)

but you cannot guarantee getting *every* song you want from Limewire. Stick with those with the highest bit-rates for best quality. And its also worth previewing each download first before saving, as sometimes our US mates can get both artists names and song titles wrong....

Its the ducks guts mate !
