This is a simple way to help block undesirables from promoting anything on your "dollar."

Just thought I'd pass it along.
I'm doing the same thing I just wish I knew how to transfer all my files, shortcuts, outlook express, etc, etc ( i use a lot. lol) and everything to another account. I know how to set up the account...just don't know how to make it the same as the one I use.
