I forgot to mention a few weeks ago that John Haller from PortableApps.com had updated the Firefox Portable (that is the new name, it's no longer known as Portable Firefox) to version 1.5.0.6. The update fixed the Windows Media Player bug that many people were experiencing troubles with.

WinFuture, yet again, was able to get their hands on Vista 5505 long enough to snap some great screenshots.

Almost every screensaver site I have been to in the past has some sort of spyware/adware attached to the files that you download.
