Had good quiet weekend with plenty sleep. And I really do have a lovely boyfriend who loves me - I know I don't mention him much here but I do...

Also got a few stuffs done, such as moving to S2, getting computer desk off [livejournal.com profile] autopope, finally shelving all the books in my room, and getting the Pod to play tunes on the sound-surround system, which rocks. I'm still not quite happy with my S2 setup (how do I get it to leave out my user-pic from the top right of the screen?), but I did manage to get my chosen words to replace the comment texts :-)

So the question is, given the London Dates are sold out, should I book my T in The Park tickets now even though I can't really afford them? And does anyone want to come with me?

A few geek queries - Windows XP based.

1. Is it safe to let LiveUpdate update stuff when I don't know what it is? At the moment I'm letting it do anything that says it's a security patch, but what of other stuffs - are MS try to plant spyware on my machine or what?

2. On the subject of Spyware - why does every single programme I open, including Spider Solitaire, ask for Internet access? I've got ZoneAlarm set up to warn me and so far everything seems to work when I say no, but what's going on?

3. (...and this is the tough one) Does anyone know why I might be having problems getting my XP box and my '98 box to see each other over the network. So far I've told them both the name of the workgroup and their own names, and marked some folders for sharing, but nothing shows up...
