hmmm I wonder what a australian trying to sound austrian would sound like.

I see...Spell-check man kills big robots. Interesting.

Whoops, that was off topic.

What an odd thread. The Author creates "HELP ME" posts in General and Help, and doesn't reply to any of them.

yea help shall be giveth if thou hast the will to returneth

/me finds a hiding place before Jafo sees his really bad impression

21 by #¼Crazy Travis ™ - 1/1/2004 4:28:49 PM I can't use wep with my wireless router and card. It doesn't work for some reason. So I set my router to only detect my computer. Unless somebody has stolen my computers identity I am set from people stealing my bandwith.

Without some form of encryption, anyone within "earshot" of your wireless network can capture your traffic and see what your MAC address is, and then spoof it. So the fact that you have it "locked down" to your MAC doesn't really protect you all that much.

I am not as concerned about someone stealing my bandwidth as I am someone getting into my network and posing as me. I sure don't want the authorities coming after me, thinking I did something illegal, just to find out that a hacker got into my system and did something illegal, because I didn't plug ALL of the holes that I could.

where i live its protection enough.

hi to all i am sorry for the use with the captial letters,things just went wrong all day,but i will try all of the above suggestions and let you know how i got on,

Good luck, Elizabeth121....

BTW, guys....Aussies sound just like anyone else whacking big robots.....lots of knee-trembling and big guns going 'bang'....

1001 is a firewall error.  It means that you are blocking SDC from
connecting to the network.  ZoneAlarm is particularly evil....... I really
hate ZoneAlarm.  We get more tech support from ZoneAlarm users than all
other firewalls combined.

still no luck trying to download SDC coul anyone help ?tried all of the above and i do not to my knowledge anything about a fire wall

This is a direct link to the SDcentral download: http://storage.stardock.com/files/stardockcentral111a.exe

Try it. It may work, you never know.

Can you use the Stardock chats, Elizebeth121?

Elizabeth121 - try that direct link Xendre64 gave you, but if you still can't download it I can e-mail it to you. This sounds like a Firewall (which you say you don't have) problem or an error caused by a Pop-up and Cookie killer proggie.
