argh i tried norton on it, bad news...it keeps coming up with a problem in
the alias somethingorother, the thingie that keeps track of where fffiles
are on the disk ( icnt remember right now) and then i tell it to fix, and
it comes up with it again, at the smae place (i think 5,9,11; or 5,11,9)
and keeps on doing it, till i tell it to stop. disk first aid says it cant
fix it. i guess once i can back this sucker uup, its reformat time :(
