Nevermind. I fixed my problem another way.
Take jobs as they come -- and we'll never be under the heel of nobody ever again. No matter how long the arm of the Alliance might get, we'll just get ourselves a little further.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Maybe it should be pointed out that this malware prompts you to ask if you want to install it (pretending to be a video codec). Unlike much Windows malware, which can infect just by going to a website (if your computer is not up to date with patches).

Just installed Leopard on the Mini. Yay!
Quick (and hopefully easy) question. I have an external USB drive I want to use for Time Machine that has 100GB of stuff I don't want to lose. I figure I'll use the Disk Utility to partition the drive into two volumes. If I do that, will all the existing data be erased? Or will it be saved onto one of the two partitions?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
In Leopard, you can resize disk partitions without losing data. Or so I hear. I haven't tried it yet personally.

Not wanting to take any chances, I plugged in another external HD I have that's formatted with Windows NTFS. It is recognized as read only. Any way to make it writable without reformatting it?

Yeah. I figured. I found another old drive laying around, stuck it in an enclosure, and am using it for a temporary backup.
