Reply to Browser issues in Community WinCustomize Forums

Had a similar issue with both. Somehow got hit with 'Sweetpacks' toolbars I believe from either an add-on or it snuck in with a program update like Frostwire or something. I really think it came in with a 'Coupon Printing' program the wife said she had to have...sigh. That is gone now as well, so I can't say for sure. Run Spybot and MalwareBytes Their both really good for finding the kind of crap that will muck with your browser. Spybot found an

What version of IP? WIndows? I've been using IconPackager for close to 10 years. all versions, and have NEVER had the issue you claim happened to you occur on any PC I used it on. Did you contact support? The people here in the forums and in support are some of the MOST helpful people you can find ANY WHERE!

No matter what I do...change settings or resize the fence...it always shows the tops of the icons in the row below as in the image. I DO know about resizing and how to do it and I have tried it with and without the SHIFT key held down and the 1x1. 2x2..settings changed and tested.. My only other option is to not have multiple rows in a Fence, but that shoul

Problem with Fences in OS Customization WinCustomize Forums

I looked around and couldn't find any other posts on this. I can't figure out why my Fences are showing the tops of icons under the first row. No matter how I resize the icons, fonts, etc., I can't hide the icons on the bottom. This started with the Fences 2.01 update.

Never have had them. All of this is kind of mute right now as when we got home from church yesterday we discovered our TV had died. It's an Element

[quote who="RedneckDude" reply="27" id="3396208"]According to a magic jack ad I recently saw on TV, they now have a version that doesn't require a computer. [/quote] My understanding was that the new version/option plugs directly into your phone line. I'll have to research it further.

[quote who="RedneckDude" reply="18" id="3396109"]Sorry, Po, not meant to be a hijack.[/quote] No prob. The MBp is an issue for me. Timewarner, down here, goes through xfinity as well. I am supposed to have as high as 15 mbp but tests almost never go over 12. How you are getting MORE than subscribed for is amazing.

As hard or difficult as the adjustment might be, I really want to try it but it's something the wife is pretty steadfast against. I think all of these companies are full of it and the idea of saving 1000 a year works for me, you know? I dangled that idea and what we could do with a 1000 bucks, but it

[quote who="RedneckDude" reply="9" id="3396089"]Our package would actually cost more without the phone.[/quote] We currently DON'T have the phone. If we added it, it would be a 7 to 11 difference in our total monthly bill with any of them, so it's minor. I'm considering sattelite tv with one, internet with time warner, and phone through MagicJack. I'd still save $30 a month. But...the wife isn't wild about having to deal with three different billers, etc.</

She's not willing to give up being able to watch her shows as they air instead having to wait up to a week for hulu or other services to air new episodes. I'm cool with that.
