DVD Maker sound & picture out of snyc
I don't know if anyone else had had this problem, but I somewhat successfully burned movies to DVD using the Windows DVD Maker. Only problem is the sound and picture are out of sync.

Vista was prelo...

Ghost Icon!
My downloads folder icon, on the desktop has become transparent, with a large "down arrow" at its right-hand edge. I don't see anything unusual in the folder, and I can find no explanation for this appearance! I thought it might mean that a file in the folder was ready to be written out to a CD or DVD, but there is no indication of that. Is this an indication that Vista Home Premium doesn't ...

Is SyncToy 1.4 100% OK in Vista?
I ask because in Vista this aspect of SyncToy is driving me crazy: Even though I've excluded the Recycle Bin in SyncToy's "Select Subfolders" section (the entire Recycle Bin branch is deselected), if I do a "Preview" on this task, SyncToy shows me that everything in Recycle Bin will be backed up. In other words, it flatly ignores the exclusion. I later tried deselecting some "normal" dir...
