Leo's Answers Hello! *** Contents
*** This Week's New Articles on Ask Leo! Why can I only back up a maximum of 4 gigabytes?
Actually the clue is right there in the error message: the problem is FAT32. Fortunately the solution is fairly straightforward. Continue reading: "Why
can I only back up a maximum of 4 gigabytes?" * * * How do I click a link on a web page if I have no mouse?
There is a way already built into most browsers, but it is most definitely not pretty. There's also a pretty slick way for some types of links if you use Firefox. There may be other solutions out there that perhaps my readers are aware of, but in the meantime let me tell you what I do know. Continue reading:
"How do I click a link on a web page if I have no mouse?" * * * Are 64-bit PCs more secure than 32-bit machines?
Well, yes, no, and maybe. There's a little bit of apples to oranges comparison going on here, but there are also some grains of truth. Let's look at just what all the differences are and how they do, and do not, impact security. Continue reading: "Are
64-bit PCs more secure than 32-bit machines?" * * * How can I reuse or erase a "dead" hard drive?
It depends on just what the definition of "dead" is. In some cases you can resurrect the "dead" drive, either long enough to recover the data on it, or perhaps to simply begin using it as a functioning drive once again. In other cases it's best to just put a stake through its heart. And I mean that almost literally. Continue reading: "How can I
reuse or erase a "dead" hard drive?" * * * Does MSN Hotmail or Windows Live Hotmail keep a log of when I signed in?
Short answer: we don't know. The longer answer is that there may well be logs, but whether they contain what you need, how long they'll be kept, and what it takes to even get the answer are huge unknowns. Continue reading:

Welcome to the very first issue of the Leo's Answers newsletter, from Ask Leo! Wow. Starting up a newsletter is a lot of work.

November 18, 2005 *** Thoughts and Comments Yep, it's been two full years of "Leo's Answers", the official weekly newsletter of Ask Leo!. As I write this there are just shy of 20,000 of you, and I thank you very much for subscribing, for being here, and for your very insightful comments and questions. As I say repeatedly, I may not be able to respond to every comment or question, but I appreciate each and every one of them. I like to use these milestones as an opportunity to remind myself of just how global the internet really is. For example, here are the top 10 countries subscribing to the newsletter, in order:
Not surprisingly, the United States represents just over one half of all subscribers. The rest? 175 other countries around the planet. Down at the end of what internet marketers like to call "the long tail", here are 21 countries or regions with exactly one subscriber each: Angola, Armenia, Asia/Pacific Region, Benin, British Indian Ocean Territory, Cape Verde, Cayman Islands, Cote D'Ivoire, El Salvador, Guinea-Bissau, Haiti, Kiribati, Lao People's Democratic Republic, Madagascar, Mauritania, Micronesia, Federated States of, Monaco, Mongolia, Rwanda, Swaziland, Virgin Islands, U.S. I don't know, but I just think that's wonderfully cool, and I'm glad you're here. And that goes for everyone in the 140 or so other countries in between as well. I hope you're finding useful and interesting information. (Pssst! Wanna give me a second anniversary present?

Leo! If you have a comment or a question, I'll remind you that newsletter subscribers can visit http://ask-leo.com/askleosubscriber.html to submit your comments and questions.

Oh, and one small not-so-secret: the "normal" Ask Leo a Question page goes to my assistant where she filters out some of the silly and redundant questions I get, and occasionally points people to articles that already answer their question. However the newsletter subscriber form goes directly to my inbox. 'till next time...
