Definitions Please
I looked at a post on v2.2 and it mentioned FMV. What is it and what does it stand for?

Full Motion Video.
I'm used to calling them cinematics; Pumpkin called them sequences.
Basically, they're the videos in the single-player campaign that show the plot but most people just skip through. Now, instead of complaining they're not there, you can skip through them!

I normally don't click on a link unless it's one I know is safe. O_O
I'm extremely protective of my computer, it is already crashing and slow. If something serious were to happen to it, I would have a panic attack.
