I have often wondered, however, how you know what lenses it actually corrects, and if it is likely to ever get confused by a third-party lens and alter the image? Is there a list of supported lenses for this feature?
I believe only the DA, DFA and the FA limited lenses so out of my head.

The only machine I would feel happy not having AV on is Linux, and I still have the program there to make sure I'm not unwittingly passing viruses on (it doesn't run all the time, I have to tell it to scan particular files/folders).
The pwo2own hackers haven't be able to crack it.

LV was spot on but when shooting through the view finder it was FF. So I make an AF adjustment on the lens of -8 and through the lens now is nearly spot on but then surely that would then kick the LV out? or doesn't the LV apply the AF adjustment? It doesn't appear so as now both are spot on....
Liveview looks at the picture and try to create the sharpest contrast, if you've a sharp contrast it's sharp. As far as i know the af adjustment doesn't make it look for a weaker contrast.
The Phase AF system is very different and you also have the problem of small variation in the calibration and aligment of the AF sensor and the lens AF.
Here you can read more about it and below that is contrast AF.

Ideally don't want to open up the computer, but will look into it...
There is a way of getting Vista to use a USB stick as memory for small files, but it only shows an improvement in speed with 512K of memory.
Ready boost, that's the name.
You can also use fast SD card if you've a SD reader.

This might also be a solution if you shoot RAW, a bit more expensive but it also correct/calibrate your colours.
