3 AnswersRenting & Real Estate8 years agoWhat can do? My EX wife is pursuing me for her legal expenses?
She has the House, Furnished, as part of the settlement. An income from me for the kids, a good job, a very low mortgage repayment, a documented "loan of30K to clear debts" from her dad.
I have a single income, living in Rented accommodation. The absolute came through with a court order that I have to pay her legal fees (in excess of 2K!), where as mine were modest at 500£. We had agreed for a "clean break".
I can't afford any more legal battles, and don't qualify for legal aid :-(
anyone have any idea (or experience) that may help ????

1 AnswerComputer Networking1 decade agoIs there any software/Program available to Scan/Check for redundant/obsolete programs?
I'm sure my hard drive(s) has either obsolete, redundant, or duplicated files that are no longer used/required. Does anyone know of any application/program that scans/and lists these ?
I know I have some duplicates because I recently replaced my old HDD for a bigger, newer SATA drive, and although I deleted lots from old, (which I now use for storage) my OS is on the new drive, and was just removed/deleted from the old one (i hope) It only gives one boot option on start up, (on new drive XP) so assume it's not got a complete os on it.
