    lol, I can imagine u playing the game while looking at the translations. Takes you 5 mins to figure out which spell you want and stuff.

    i just use Tomato's patch for Bahamut Lagoon. Everything's in English, no "taking five minutes to pick a spell", great stuff.

    Very much appreciated. You should also get an anti-virus program. A good free one is AVG

    I never get attachments in my e-mail, but thanks for the warning anyways. AVG is a good free virus scanner, as Super Bagel said.

    I have dowloaded a number of virus' since i started downloading
    But i have about 5 virus programs scanners, shields the whole thing

    LOL. You can leave for dinner, and when you come back, the virus scanners will still be scanning.
