Talking Cheap rattle fix

There was a rattle on the plastic covers by the seatbelt that was driving me nuts. Everytime I hit a pothole or bump it would go off.




My solution was to go to advance autoparts, buy the rubber strip (the one that goes on the door edges), cut a small piece and put it in there. Did it for the driver and passenger side....now no more rattle. Problem fixed for like $2.99

What actually was rattling? Was this the door clunk which some fixed by adjusting their door striker, or replacing the latch mechanism?

Hey!! I clicked on one of Henri's pictures, and something called "girlie my space" started downloading some crap. It caused things to freeze up and I had to hit the power button to get it to stop. WTF is up with those pictures????

They worked for me. It pops up a new window, try clicking on a different picture from somewhere else and see when the window pops up if it happens somewhere else. You might have something on your computer doing it...

Firstly, I have never been to any kind of a My Space site. So, it isn't related to anything I have done with my computer.
Secondly, what was down loading when I clicked on Henri's picture was in a popup behind the window which was down loading the picture. It had everything to do with being connected to that GD picture. Probably an advertising scheme! I don't believe clicking on a picture in some one's post on this site should have an adverse effect on my computer.
