I have bought a usb hdd. Now I want to direct my MYDOCS folder to there (relocate it to the hdd) so that when I go to save anything the location is my docs on usb hdd. Is this easy to do? and if so how can I do it? Thanks.

Out of order.

So Bluey, how's your new USB HDD? If you right-click "My Documents" on the desktop then select properties you can see the target which is probably C:\windows\my documents (as you are using Windows ME, which, incidentally, is immune to this new nasty virus!). Just change this to E:\my documents or to whever your new HDD is. I think this will copy all the data across as well.
