We only had one computer but several different programs and each one needed a different password that we could only keep for 1-3 months depending on the program.

The guy said that Vista only makes up 3% of all Microsoft users and Micro 7 over 49%. <br /><br />I made a huge mistake by not buying a disk from the computer guy, Antonio, in Mazamitla. He said it had thousands of random passwords and with the disc you could open just about any wifi spot. 150 pesos, oh well. C U guys soon. I am hunting for a good scotch to bring with us.
