So.. yeah. I've got a laptop and I'm running out of fun stuff to do (not necessarily games, but simulation programs, drawing programs like ASCII art studio too) while there's no internet access available (believe it or not, my town isn't saturated in wifi :P), so if anyone has a few solutions it'd be greatly appreciated.

Is there a somewhat painless method of automating multiple program installs in Win9x/NT? I've seen bundles like "hitman pro" that allow installing packs of programs with almost no user interaction, clicking Next, etc automaticly and I'm looking to do something similar.

What I'm looking for is a way to pack lots of programs into a single exe and have them install one after another without any intervention. Anyone have a suggestion?

When using some sites, such as Digg.com and Google.com, my Opera browser already knows what the next page will be, and when I press Ctrl-Right or click on the double arrow (">>") toolbar button, the browser goes to the next page.

My question is, how does Opera figure out what the URL for the next page is?

(This is different than hitting the back button and then having the "next" page be known from history ... Opera knows this even without having visited the "next" page yet.).
