Where to buy thermal tape for Heatspreaders?

Yep, looking for thermal tape. Thanks for any help.

Also, how the hell do I pop a heatspreader off, the thermal tape is sticking like mad.

BUMP

I really need help with this as I need to RMA my RAM and don't want to send it with stuff that I payed extra for so they can steal it.

Don't do this unless you're sure you won't damage anything, but how about a razor blade? Just gotta be careful.

Ill try that then, I guess. Ill be on a stick of 256 MB PC2700 for a week or two on this PC lol, unless of course I can get a Harddrive for my old Socket 423 P4 1.7 GHZ w/ 640 PC800 RDRAM. Bleh, I hate RMAs.

I'll try the razor method ASAP.
