After I turned it off, it was about 100mb. End of world rescheduled for day after tomorrow. Something should probably be done. Please advise.

I have, though, turned off System Restore, as per your instructions. I think the PC boots a little faster, but I'm not sure I can tell. Nothing else has changed, but then, it has never been crashy, anyway. Wade. "Ah. One of the difficult questions."
