BTW, you can run most computer tasks automatically on a daily basis. For instance, here is part of my nightly maintenance file that defrags the drives (Note that I use XP):

:: Start Defrag of Drive C
cd\
defrag c: -f
:: End
exit

To use this:

1) copy the above into notepad and save it as defrag.bat

2) open Control Panel and click on Scheduled tasks and schedule the above file to run at a given time.

My entire maintenance script performs a number of taks including deleting files, error checking, file backup, scanning, etc.

No sense in doing things manually grin
