>> > Dear Jonathan Powell-
>> > This is a very common problem men complain about but is mostly due
>to a primary misconception. Many people upgrade from Girlfriend 1.0 to
>Wife 1.0 with the idea that Wife 1.0 is merely a "UTILITIES &
>ENTERTAINMENT" program.

>> > Wife 1.0 is an OPERATING SYSTEM and designed by its creator to run
>> > everything. WARNING DO NOT TRY TO: un-install, delete, or purge the
>> > program from the system once installed. Trying to un-install Wife
>1.0 can be disastrous. Doing so may destroy your hard and/or floppy drive.
>> > Trying to un-install or remove Wife 1.0 will destroy valuable system
>> > resources. You can not go back to Girlfriend 1.0 because Wife 1.0
>is not designed to do this. Some have tried to install Girlfriend 2.0 or
>Wife 2.0 but end up with more problems than the original system. Look in
>your manual under Warnings- Alimony/Child Support. Others have tried to
>run Girlfriend 1.0 in the background, while Wife 1.0 is running.
>Eventually Wife 1.0 detects Girlfriend 1.0 and a system conflict occurs,
>this
>can lead to a non-recoverable system crash. Some users have tried to
>> download similar products such as Fling and 1NiteStand. Often their
>systems
>have become infected with a virus. I recommend you keep Wife 1.0 and
>just deal with the situation.

>> > Having Wife 1.0 installed myself, I might also suggest you read the
