at night with the window open i have the following choices:

1. turn off the lights, i don't get too many insects through teh window but it is a bit hard to play L4D with 4/5 daddy longlegs swarming my monitor.

2. turn the lights in my room on, this results in a new daddy longlegs wallpaper effect on all my walls, although my pc monitor is usually insect free.

3. cook to death (close the windows - with them open i'm around 25/26 degrees ambient @ night).

4. turn off pc (or worse, turn down my OC).

5. train a spider (well first learn to not hate spiders, then train one) to eat up all those bastard insects and not make webs everywhere. Only problem then is i could end up with a giant mega-spider.

of those options what would you guys do?

I have a huge problem with Mosquitos since my room faces the garden, & since I have hot water pipes running right underneath my bed room floor - closing my windows = a hot day in Tunisia (around 30-36'c) which with no airflow in the room to cool my overclocked pc & 2 scorchio 4870's = Slow death.

but what ive done is invested in 2 huge sheets of Mosquito Netting & I use a bit of tape & attach the netting to my windows. that way I can have them wide open, & nothing gets through.

Prices for netting vary. Robert Dyas does a small cut for £5.99 or something. other places might sell for more depending on the quality, Its not cheap. but you will not regret investing in it.

either that or train a small army of ants to fly mini F16's, F18's & Surface to Air technology & have them launch patrols regularly to kill mosquitos....

Why not just get some curtain netting & some tape and tape the netting around one or all of your windows ... and then open them, that way, you have your windows open, lights on or off as you wish, and no insects or anything to bother you while your gaming :)

EDIT: OPPS i should of read all of Freedoms post ... my bad.

Urgh DragonBalls Z...

Lost interest in that show when it was on at 5pm, program started at 5:08pm, adverts at 5:14pm - 5:20pm, show finished at 5:25pm... 11mins. Take off the intro, recap of last episode, 'next week' and the boring expressions pauses... THat s 5mins show...

No thank you.

dragonball original was alright the army thing was TOO LONG and dragonball Z dragged on forever, one fight would span a few episodes, the story while good at the start got to the point where it was stupid

i got bored of it too mate
