I wasn't able to find a converter on that site. Just news articles.

*sigh* Sometimes I hate the internet.

A couple of ways- first, Windows Media Player 10 and 11 will convert from CDA (the common CD format on most commercial CDs) and "rip" those files to mp3 for playing on an mp3 player or PC system. WMP will also convert from WMA format to mp3- and back again, but going back you obviously will loose some "depth" to the sound- just part of the limits with the mp3 compression method.

I know, I know... Windows is not "cool," but neither is a nasty DNS hijack.

Secondly- and the method that I prefer: Nero Burning ROM. It will automatically convert and set things up for burning if that's the end product; or simply transfer the converted files to whatever destination.

Also, for playing it safe: the commercial or "Pro" versions of RealPlayer, Quicktime and some iTunes implementations. You will need a credit card - but that's better than being on the pointy end LadyRev's bow.

Oh, you don't EVEN want to know the conversation that took place between her and I when I called to tell her that her computer wouldn't boot up when I did the restart!!!

And I've love to follow your advice above, but it's all Greek to me. I'm more of a 'show me' kind of person, and any directions I follow have to be typed out as if a 5 yr old was asking.

You know, if your ever in the Portage/Poynette area, I COULD take a look at it (it is part of my profession after all).

Then you could start a thread how you finally met "RandyWayne" and talk about the pure evil you felt oozing from every pore.

You too?! I am terrible with having to try and figure this stuff out.

A friend was trying to tell me to 'rip' a song, and I silently wondered how one 'whips' a song...

THIS IS A BRAND NEW LAPTOP AND I AM NOT HAPPY!

DID YOU CHECK THOSE SOURCES AS BEING REPUTABLE BEFORE POSTING THOSE LINKS???

THIS IS A WARNING TO ALL! DO NOT DOWNLOAD FROM THESE SITES!
How long did you let it run before you gave up? Sometimes after an install Windows takes a while

Thats what I was gonna suggest..

You may already have a program on the PC that will do this. Lots of Laptops come with music programs and CD burning software like Nero or Roxio

Download.com is a respectable site

The maker is Koyote and I could not find any complaints on the net

However if you got a virus or spyware, odds are system restore did not fix it. So the problem might have been either bad programming or impatience to wait for the system to fully finish after an install.
