Cindy.1981
Hope somebody can help me. It's an old topic. Have a 3 year old WD Passport and it worked fine so far. It's formatted to NTFS. I gave it to a friend to copy some of my stuff from the drive. She has Vista on her laptop, I have XP.

Mail not faster

Anonymous
Hallo, since some weeks my Mozilla Thunderbird 2. 0. 0. 21 has become very slow visualizing some html mail (like paypal payment's one). Before it wasn't so slow but now it takes even one minute when I select one of them but only the first time: if i select it again is much faster.
