If this is about rescuing the data off said drive you could just clone it. http://xxclone.com/

No just the issue made me think there maybe more efficient ways to backup than doing what I already make do. Most my data is backed up already and I just getting the rest of it now (new files I made this week -- mostly gameplay videos).
That's just because the IDE drives were older, there's nothing in the connector interface related to the internals of the drive.

I was trying to burn a disc. It failed. I took it out and nearly burned myself. Then I did a test with an old backup CD with data and ran it for a few minutes and it didn't heat when I took it out. Is it possible that the laser is malfunctioning? Or would the entire thing break at once?
It does burn properly at lower speed but I forgot to set the lower speed. At high speeds it makes awful noises (my mother once compared it to a vacuum cleaner.)
Actually I wonder if the CD drive noise has anything to do with the hard drive noise. Maybe the way they are mounted amplifies the noise.

Question: In Thunderbird I was copying emails to a local folder so I could do things. A lot of the emails copied into it twice and there were many duplicates. Is there a setting somewhere that I probably set wrong or should I try to report it to the bugs? Deleting them isn't a problem as I got an extension to deal with it, but it seems odd.
Nope.

How do I disable image loading for one website in Firefox, without constantly switching it on and off? (Long story made short: Forum long abandoned by administrator, all the images recently broke and are replaced with these stupid huge Photobucket placeholders... we're looking into moving). Tried AdBlock Plus, but it also disabled the alt text. I suppose I could throw together a Greasemonkey script, but I'm lazy.

Oh, there is is. Thank you.
Now to figure out how to explain this in very noobish terms for the others
hope none of them are using a different browser.

Question: How do I merge HTML files together without manually copying and pasting them? I had a program for it but I forgot the name of it and Google isn't cooperative today, unfortunately.
If you mean literally get the text of all the files into one big file, I would use cat (built into *nix OS's, available on windows with cygwin, "GNU Utilities For Win32" or GnuWin). If you want something a bit more html aware I do not know, and would be interested to hear others answers.

I will take a look. Hope its not command-line -- I always fail with those types.

If you just want to concatenate, cat is a great choice.
If the result is supposed to be (semi) valid html and understandable for browsers, it would be fairly easy to write a script that strips the header and body tag of the second file, and inserts the remaining content into the first.
If you want a graphical tool which allows you to drag and drop between the files, then i dunno.

What is concat.... I'm not going to attempt to spell it?
The files are mostly plain-text emails so I think it should be fine if the HTML gone away. (Long story made short: My friend wrote something, sent it to me over the span of something like 20 emails, and is asking if I can put it together and send it back to her.)

In windows you can use the command line command "type" along with the ">>" operator. So for example, if all your HTML files are stored in the same directory, open the command prompt, navigate to the directory, and type the following:
then the "fullfile.html" will contain all the html files in the directory. You might then want to open the file in notepad and remove "</html>" from the file, then go to the end of the file and put the "</html>" back in.
HTH. If you need more help let me know, I have l33t dos prompt skillz.
Code:
type *.html >> fullfile.txt
ren fullfile.txt fullfile.htmlthen the "fullfile.html" will contain all the html files in the directory. You might then want to open the file in notepad and remove "</html>" from the file, then go to the end of the file and put the "</html>" back in.

I looked around and found this, I hope it's exactly what you want. Sorry Narnia, I couldn't find an analogous add-on for Chrome.
