well I have only seen it twice in the past week , but they were strange ..
I saw it once when the pc came back from screensaver mode, and my wife showed me once when she was playing at POGO .
I ran Adaware , and Spybot1.4 , both showed my system clean , and my AVG is up to date , and no viruses ...

RAAF453_Shep

well the smitfraud fix was the ticket.
he reported to me that resolved it , and I had him add the MVPS Host file , along with the other recommended work .
he's running the new IE7 beta .... I dont like the look of it. But I resisted XP , for my trusty ol 98 , what now seems forever ago , so who ...

Well that cascade was never ending !!
I coulnt seem to find the root of it.... so ,
I restored back to Sunday , before I had issues, and now
alls smurfy again. Windows explorer isnt sluggish ,
had to repair AVG, and it seems for the moment ...
OK.
I know what this usually means that I fubar'd ...

RAAF453_Shep

Well seems I have had a cascade of issues since
doing the new updates.
This morning , had the Windows Security Shield warning up in the tray ,
saying that my AV was reporting OFF ?
it wasnt ! so I uninstalled and re-installed, took the shield warning off.
But strange the number of issues that I ...

I am not in the doghouse at the moment , but the latest version of MVPS Hosts , has us in a little quandry.
Seems theres alot of ad's missing .. Noooo Problemo there !
but to use the backpage in our Juno email , it comes up with a 3 attempt( clicks ) to get back to the main list, from viewing an ...

RAAF453_Shep

Well ,
I had set my autoupdate to manual , ( trying to reduce the number of services , running in the background , for my gaming ) and then after the updates last night, I had to use Restore to roll back a day.
Seems the one for the windows shell had left me without a desktop right click menu !
I ...

RAAF453_Shep

Well once again unto the breech...
I loaded the MVPS Hosts file again.
Amazing how many ad's it disables, but my concern is the last time I did it, was the repercusions from my wifes games @ Pogo.com.
She played fine there last time for a day or 2, then because the ad's werent loading, it stopped ...

I try to not be a worry wart, but the article said that "critical" word, and that got my attention.
just trying to keep ahead of the curve.

and howz about Kristanna Loken from Terminator3

RAAF453_Shep

Ok, i read the article in EWeek , and did the workaround.... but still find myself puzzled ( not hard for a dumb doggy , rehehe ) but I dont use thumbnails.
I hate when Windows reverts to them in the folder view, and always go back to my list view.
So now that I unregistered that .dll does that ...

RAAF453_Shep

sent you a private message, but havent heard from you.

RAAF453_Shep

I get those from time to time, and even if you deny the return, they get verification that you opened it... the main reason for that tool.
as to it sitting in your outbox, not certain, why.. have you gone thru the options to see if it is set to not ?

RAAF453_Shep

hmm, I helped a squadmate with his infection, a week ago, will report back as to his Java install's when I catch him online tonite. I saw the same , in my add and remove, so I uninstalled the older version.
Thanks again for the heads-up...

RAAF453_Shep

I guy in my flight squadron, has moved out ( waaay out ) of town , and he now uses Starband for his ISP.
It's a satillite connection, and according to them isnt good for gaming. His lats are in the 1700 range.. horrible to say the least... mine average 50-70 to most I game with ( but I use all the ...

RAAF453_Shep

well appointed site... added it to my ever growing list , for those future references.

RAAF453_Shep

Thanks M8, worked smooth. what I reaaaaly liked about it is the shell extension it added to the right click menu !

It's added to my archive in Utilities.

RAAF453_Shep

well I dl'd a movie last evening... scanned it with my up to date AVG ( it said no virus ) , and then tried to open it in DIVX.
No such luck. It's now 4 hours later, and if I even open the folder its in , the pc doesnt respond . I even tried to go in SAFE mode to try and got the same error ... "can ...

RAAF453_Shep

Thanks , this is all a test for me.

all drives are WD ATA100 7200
but all on IDE . will XPpro do this , or do I have to use a controller card ?

RAAF453_Shep

G'day ,

Im curious... I have 3 WD ata100 7200rpm HD's in my system. I have all set to CS , my 40g is currently used as Master , 30g as slave(F :) , and my 200g(D :) is also loaded with XP pro( same as the 40g ) but is primarily used for storage.
I run a gig or pc2700 ddr , and wonder if it ...

RAAF453_Shep

I couldnt count to 55, so all I got was 34 1/2.

RAAF453_Shep

I use ScreenHunter to take pictures of those things I change , and save them in a zip for passing along , when I see that it works .
some of my friends are not good readers, so the imagery assists in showing how and where to do things.

not alot of help now, but a thought for the future.

RAAF453_Shep

got this one.... but they arent home at the moment to give it a proper test.. but it looks great so far.

http://www.leadmind.com/index.html

and best of all.. like my AVG and Adaware ... FREE !
arent these the best of times captain ?

RAAF453_Shep

G'day , was wondering if theres a program for IM inside my new home network.
got a Netgear wireless ( for my 2 neighbors that use it from their laptops ) and to save a shout down the hall, would very much like to have IM w/o using the usual online apps. is there such a program ? possibly freeware ...

RAAF453_Shep

ahh for my search engine... also w/o those annoying poppers...
Copernic Search
I especially like the results saves it keeps for real fast re-reference.

RAAF453_Shep

Guess that I have no help out there.

I'll format this, and hope for the best. I thought there was a cure....

Now HoooOOld on there Babalooie... seems after a few hours of frustrating digging, renaming, moving everything connected to the "bundleware" to a new folder I made private, a few run thru ...

err, well it did my system.

My loving wife ( of 22 yrs now ), in her quest for truth and wealth , does surveys , and I mean alot of them.
So in the past it's been a good thing. we have sampled some great FREE things... and she's made quite a bit of cash.
But somewhere in the past couple of days ...

RAAF453_Shep

thanks alot , but it finally dawned on me.
I was installing something the other day and it gave me a pop up from Sygate, which I had blocked... changed them to ask... poof , no mo problemo's.

RAAF453_Shep

is anyone else experiencing the errors @ windows update ?

RAAF453_Shep

Many thanks for the input.
I downloaded "copytoDVD" trial version, it worked straight up, ( and better - straight forward ) and was easy to interpret.

then I looked in my Nero , and found the Nero Recode , ( and for my bad eyes saw the "Data" button in that , so now Im in doggy heaven, finally ...

RAAF453_Shep

ello , ok my mission is to try to use a dvdr like a cdr... just to archive data to. it seems such a waste to "only" have movies on a dvd.
is there software ( I currently only have Nero 5.5 ) that will do that ?
? but to save files to a directory , then burn the whole folder to a dvd .
all I see ...

RAAF453_Shep

Thanks YOSC,

I intend to hold where Im at... got my NIC tweak in , and have had great performance , speed isnt everything , the thruput is , then lats... thats where my heads is.

RAAF453_Shep

Humboldt , I was on dial up for 12 years . I lived ub a rural area where even caller ID wasnt available ! , but my dial up , separate line ( extra $30 a month , + the ISP , $22 more ) cost me as much then as my cable does now , in the big city. my 56k modem @ $125 ( then, for a USR pro ) astonished ...

RAAF453_Shep

I have always used ethernet for cable access , but had a friends pc here, the other day, and my spare ethernet card died, so in despiration I dug out the cable modems cd, and hooked his tower up on USB. it installed instantly.

Now I did all his updates ( a format on his new 250 WD HD , he had me ...

RAAF453_Shep

Greasy Whiskerz ! man sorry to hear about that CF , ... But thanks ever so much for the heads up on it.
I use MSN as well but have mine set so only those I allow see me, and they all know how I am about files , and more than what they are , but those of us in our circles , dont send till permission ...

RAAF453_Shep

hmm my asus vid pops up first showing its bios version ect, then the ACPI while it detects my 3 HD's and DVD .. but geez mine reboots in about 45 seconds ,

RAAF453_Shep

is this a fresh install or an upgrade ?

RAAF453_Shep

well I havent , but Im inlove with yer Brunettes !
