my right-click button doesn't respond and i'd like to download stuff - how can you right-click without it, i'm sure there's a way, with ctrl/alt/shift keys or something.
oh, and buying a new mouse is definitely the solution but, not at this time of the night.
thanks!

well, since they gave us the prolog thread, i didn't feel like posting a technical thread in the tech forum, maybe a thread about how PJ rocks my socks or about constipated penguins...

newer keyboards have the properties button on the right side of the space bar

Space Bar | Alt | Windows Button | properties button

when you see a link you want to use the right click button, hold the left click on that link and press that button.

i am having serious hard drive space issues. so far, i have deleted any old word or excel doc., as well as old pictures and whatever junk i could spare. now i have begun to delete programs that i do not use. My problem is there are two versions of "iPod for Windows" listed as "currently installed." One is from 2005, using 99.81 MB. The other is from 2006, using 136.00 MB. Also, iTunes is listed and uses 73.43 MB. My question is can one of these "iPod for Windows" be deleted without affecting the songs my computer contains?
