Personally, I hate this website. The majority of questions are either horribly worded, incredibly easy to answer on one's own with the use of widely available resources (including, but not limited to, www.google.com), alterations of a very common question, or a combination of the three. I confuse myself sometimes as to why I continue to read random questions, only to be to be driven insane by the utter disregard for the reader of the question. Maybe I just use this website as an outlet for my rage towards the section of teenagers who upset me the most, or possibly it is just ingrained in my psyche to read over poorly spelled questions to fuel my masochistic personality. I might even be staying here to prevent the overtake of this hapless corner of the internet by ignorant and lazy teenage girls that don't know how to say "yes" to someone who asked her out by the use of common sense and correct grammar.
I have, however, found that reading topic specific questions eliminates most of my frustration. Of course, that still doesn't stop me from running into unbelievably ignorant questions such as "does doing squats really make your theighs smaller?" in the INTERNET AND WEB DESIGN topic list.

So, I just got a Creative Zen Nano Plus for Christmas. It has a 1 GB harddrive, and it's pretty flippin' sweet, but I'm having some difficulties disconnecting it from my computer.
I've read the instructions that came with it for disconnecting the player. Of course, I know I could just yank the USB cable out, but it's not supposed to work like that, and it doesn't. I tried, sadly. I was supposed to have about 90 folders, and only 50 showed up.
The instruction booklet says that if you are a Windows 98 SE user, open Windows Explorer and right-click Removable Drive, then eject. I've done this a million gazillion times with no gain. It still does the same thing--only 50 or so folders show up.
"If I'm doing everything right and it's still not working," I thought, "maybe there's a corrupt file or virus that's causing it to do this." So I tried to run a sweep on the harddrive. Alas, my Spy Sweeper trial has expired.
So, my question is, what the hell am I doing wrong? Is it a corrupt file? A bad USB cable? Stupidity on my part?
And if it IS possibly a corrupt file, do you know of any programs other than Webroot's Spy Sweeper that I could download to use?
Anyone computer/mp3 player savvy is absolutely welcome to help me out. Good answers appreciated.
Thank you much in advance! (link)

I would account the missing songs to bad ID3 tags. Some players require a name or artist or album in order to sort them, so if one of those fields is missing, the song may or may not show up in the player when you try to play the songs. Not sure if this is the case with the Zen Nano specifically, but I know it has been an issue for the Dell DJ.
If you want a new spyware searching program, I would recommend Adaware. And while you're at it, pick up AVG Free for a free, updating virus scanner.
