What do you mean by "transfer" programs?
If you have it on disk you can install it on any machine you wish. if you mean just copy a program thats installed over to another computer, then sometimes it can work and sometimes it cant. most programs install certain files in different directories and just dragging a folder over to another computer you could be missing certain files that are needed to run that program.
make sense? heh

here's what i mean, i should have made myself a little clear, sorry.
if you go to the store and purchase a computer with windows xp you cannot use the program disk to try to run that same os on another computer. I was under the impression that if you bought the os 98,2000,xp,me,etc. you couldn't just go to all of your friends house and give them free operating system software. am i correct on that presumption? if so, how can you take "your" copy of 98se and load it onto "their" computer?
let me know please. i am what they would call a computer dummy
