just got reminded of the recent incident with a fresher not being able to install AutoGK

was fairly amusing me thinks... he was told several times to use AutoGK and yet he continued to ask wat software to use for ripping DVDs.. it was finally discoverd that it was because he couldnt figure out how to use it... poor ickle fresher :P
