oh, that is a really bad one, Gaieus! I am not sure if I should burst with laughter
, feel terribly sorry for you 
or just blush with embarassment, because that could just as well have happened to me

another one. after importing a messy 3Ds model and cleaning it up with Thomthoms cleanup-script (thanks again, thom), I started entering every single one of the over 1500 groups/components, to smooth their surfaces.
then I just discovered, that you can apply the smoothing to groups/components, without entering them. so you can select all the groups at once and only have to do the proces once! (doesn't work with nested groups though)

I recently discovered that as well!
In regards to CleanUp - it does have a function to smooth the geometry it cleans up. If you useCleanUp Entire Modelyou have a field "Smooth Edges by Angle". -

Had to buy a new HD and reinstall everything again.

I just discovered that you can use more than one modifier key when setting up shortcut keys. example
ctrl + shift + alt + Q
or snything along those lines. I never reazlied that...
-
just out of interest: what function did you assign to
Ctrl + Shift + Alt + Q??? -
When I press that, it triggers an automatic poking of you on Facebook.
(I dare not try if there is anything assigned to it by default because I am rendering an animation)

It is my auto-assinate button in SU
I don't really have it assigned to anything. It was just an example of how complex a "shortcut" could be. I thought I was stuck to simple single modifiers. Double modifiers could greatly expand my shortcut range though!
