Windows weirdness

When I booted up my laptop this morning, all my settings for Windows were different.

I have it always set to the Windows Classic settings, but this morning I turned it on and it was all set to XP default settings and appearance. I had to manually put it back to classic and even remove that annoying "navigation sound"... you know that click noise every time you click something.

Anyone else have this happen? It's really a pain. :viking:

Nothing new, Windows determines where you go, how you go and if you go.

I have two words for y'all: Vector Linux!!

I made the switch after a Window's driven virus eradicated my HD.

It took a short while to get used to Linux, now I will never go back to Windows or Mac.

Windows XP has automatic updates whether you have them turned on or not. It's been going on for the last 4-6 months now.

My main OS is Linux. The laptop still has Windows on it, but I seldom use the laptop. For my main computer, it's Linux all the way.
