Okay, wtf? The folders on my external harddrive, which I just had transferred to a new drive because my last one died, all seem to be read only. I can't change names, change anything in the files, or even fucking delete files. I tried going to the properties of the folders and unchecking read only, but it says access is denied.

I am NOT AMUSED.

Is it still giving you problems? Not a whole lot of information on it (surprisingly most of the complaints seem to be coming from Mac and Linux users); I guess it doesn't help that the error messages are rather vague. Yeah I'd probably wipe it clean just in case the file system structure is corrupt or something. Then use the Safely Remove Hardware option in the future, along with Unlocker if it gives you that 'drive in use' error.

I'll probably drop the book into your mailbox sometime tomorrow, I think.

Nah, it's basically okay now, I just need to move all the files into new folders. ^^ May still reformat, though.

Mmkay. I'm home now and will be all evening, so whenever. You're welcome to stay for a bit - parents aren't here, they're on the island. And I have no plans for the evening. Don't really feel up to going out, though - had to leave the parade early as it is because I didn't feel well and was about to keel over. I think fate is trying to prevent me from ever actually seeing the Pride Parade. ^^;;
