From: Unknown on 3 May 2010 13:02 You need to go to the Microsoft.Public.Windowsxp.General news group and ask 'LD5SZRA' where you can get them. He has all the profane answers. Also ask 'Twayne' he'll fix you up with some good registry cleaners. <hayloft(a)newsgroup.com> wrote in message news:g37qt5hk095g17sh03bffeta84282e3qks(a)4ax.com... > I want to put one of my old computers in the barn for my cows and > horses to use.
