That was one of the first things I learned about in VBScript.

That would stink if I was burning a DVD since they are about $2-4/DVD I know. Lately, I've had to throw away some CD's because EZ CD Creator performed an illegal operation close to the end of burning the CD. I think the computer was low on resources, 'cause it always happens when I'm trying to use the computer while burning a CD.

      And you probably have Windows NT, 2000, or XP, right? ;P It's not that I can't use it at all - I just have to be careful what I do.

                      I never thought of that analogy :) Along those lines it is pretty funny. However, if it was in the middle of a burn I would be downright :mad:

                            Look at the script above it seems to enumerate over all the CD drives on your computer and open them. I wonder if it would open the drives if you were in the middle of burning something to CD/DVD. That would stink if I was burning a DVD since they are about $2-4/DVD :(
