I swear on Jesus, Muhhamad, Mosses, Yaweh, God, Allah, Bhuda, Gishma, Thor and Zeus that I've never saved porn to my HDD.

i usually do a couple of times a month ... i need to right now but have been putting it off so i can play dod.
you can get some pretty leet imaging software programs where you can create a disk image of a clean install, then whenever you want a fresh install just install from that image. pretty cool thing to do. get your drivers installed, and service packs, then make that image ... restore from it and youve got a fresh install.
