ACDSee 3.1 problem

Pandaemonium
I use ACDSee 3. 1 because I prefer it to the newer versions. When I create a folder and try to drag images in to it, it doesn't move the files, its just creates shortcut files to the images in the destination directory.

Geek4u
Want to upgrade two XP Home desktops and two Windows ME systems - one desktop - one laptop to XP Professional. Should I buy Retail Boxed (Upgrade or Full) or OEM versions of XP Pro? I find great savings on line for OEM versions but am not sure.

Media Player not finding media info

ninjapirate
When I download songs and play them in Windows Media Player 9 Series, it doesn't automatically find the media info, and when I click View Album Info it says that the feature is not available. I have Norton Internet Security, so I was wondering if that could be what is stopping it from working.
