I'd like to retrieve my bank statements automatically from my bank
web site.
( I used iBank and I manually import in Quicken-formatted file )
How can I do this ?

Some time ago I bought a 1 GB memory stick for backup of important data.
It was formatted for Windows PCs, and I backed up an .sit archive to
avoid the usual compatibility problems.
If my Mac (10.3.9, G4) went to sleep when it was plugged in to the USB

Tiger, one Panther). At the moment, all the calendars on the two Macs
are sync-ed - is there a way of preventing some from being err sync'd?
Many thanks

Not seen this before. Quicktime Player crash trying to play a DiVX
file. It's done that on and off throughout the file, whether it's due

The Core 2 Duo "Merom" processor that is.
Rumour has it that Apple may announce Merom-based MacBooks and MB Pros
as early as next week.  So, as a vaguely interested bystander[1], I'd
like to know how much better the new MBs will be?  Is the "big thing"

With the osx server spam catcher (which as I mentioned doens't work well
yet), you can redirect mail back to a junkmail account. However, there
