Show Favorites Landmarks: Fill out your favorites bar and check this. You will get your favorites as a list of options on the login screen.

Logs: Check these to save your local chat and ims to your computer. This gives you a record of who you talked to, what they told you, and any links or slurls they gave you. Very convenient for remembering names, dates, and other details.

Location of logs: This location is hard to find. On Windows the defaul is:
C:\Users\(Username)\AppData\Roaming\SecondLife

You should be able to copy the entire address from the listing on the screen. Just click on it as you would any other text.
