I place the crack in C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\The Sims 2 Mansion and Garden Stuff\TSBin. I click on the cracked .exe instead of the launcher, and I just deleted groups.cache and now it is complaining about directx9. I am downloading and installing a directX update. Still says DirectX is not working and what not. I just updated my nVidia driver.

The Gspace add-on for FireFox and Gmail will allow you to back things up to your e-mail account.  You get about 7GB per account (and it's constantly rising), and it is cheap as free.  There's no fancy automatic backup, and it's slow as hell (it is still e-mail), but it works most of the time.  You can only do a certain amount at once before they think you are some crazy bot and log you out for the day, but after the original uploading, little bits go quick.  Sometimes the downloading sticks on big files, but you can always just open the "e-mail" the item is stored under and download it directly.  I used four accounts to back up my entire hard drive (at least the stuff I wanted) when my motherboard fried and I had to build a new box.  It took me weeks, and I'm still tediously downloading the back-up, but it is FREE!  Also, I think Google is not going down the tubes any time soon, so your data should be pretty safe from deletion.

You could use your MATYbukkit for all your important Cwieberdinkly Sims-related things.

No really how does that happen that much? Is your place not have room temperature? Do you drop equipment on floor a lot?
I had online service out of London at one time but they decided to shut down business with only a week's notice and everything I had was deleted (luckily nothing important).
It might be better (and cheaper) to just buy your own remote server and have space for a website too. Those sites with auto uploader also are shady sounding think spyware.

This house actually that bad, besides the fact it's most definitely not family friendly, and the way the outside was designed.

a lot of times if your box is getting too hot, you can stick in another fan. 

Oh, OK.
But what did Emma specifically DO to be deserving of such a great "honor"?

This seems a bit of a nonsequitur. First Emma is eating out a trashcan in her pajamas, then suddenly she's sitting in a pool of her own filth in her underwear? Needs more build-up! This is like showing someone looting a store, then showing him lying in a dumpster covered in bruises. It skips over the IMPORTANT part, the TORTURE!

I would pay real money, honest! just for a Mrs. Pes' killing Eaxian attorneys with thumbs on YouTube.

Dear EAxian LAWLyer:

U R DOIN IT WRONG.

STFU & GTFO, Attorney at LOL..

Also, HA ha!

Love & glomps,
MATY, the world's leading website for hax and modz that fix the game-borking retardery created by the world's leading interactive entertainment software company"

P.S. Have you heard of TSR, which SELLS the intellectual property of EA? I thought not.

I think he starts calling for some people's deaths when they get pregnant.  And he hasn't forgiven Emma for ever being pregnant, I suppose.
