you can get windows media player to support .mkv files by downloading the windows codec packs, there are packs for XP, Vista and 7. go here to download www. shark007 .net/ . you can then associate every single codec with windows media player. Hope this helps :)

i can verify the bug on win 7 64bit, cursorFX works fine but sometime you have to apply the cursor twice or even 3 times. Hopefully this is fixed soon

major geeks is a good one, but i find that filehippo in my opinion is better, they also have their own update checker that checks the sfotware on your computer and lets you know if they have updated versions available. Great place for free, shareware and commercial trials. www.filehippo.com

i had this problem with windowsblinds pnce and an update seemed to fix it, but if you still get the problem then this workaround that i used may work for you. rename the themes extension to .zip (.wba files are just renamed .zips after all) then extract the files contained within. Then place that folder into c:/documents/stardock/windowblinds ( this is on windows 7 alter for whereever vista stores the windowblinds files). then load the windowblinds confiuration window and click skin options..

This theme exudes your usual dedication to detail and outright talent. Even though i don't think this is something that would be my style that doesn't detract from the quality workmanship and attention that you always put into your work. Good stuff :)

to test whether the windows firewall is doing it's job, go here https://www.grc.com/x/ne.dll?bh0bkyd2 this is a site designed to test your firewall called shields up. disable your outpost one and then enable the windows firewall and run the tests, then turn windows firewall off and re enable outpost and run it again to compare the two. I use the windows firewall on this laptop and ran shields up and got a perfect score so i don't u

good news that this rodent has been arrested, But also people who post so much information about themselves on ANY internet site are just asking for trouble. More fool them for allowing themselves to be placed in a vulnerable situation because there are assholes like this bloke out there just waiting to exploit them. People need to show some sense when they are on the net and they must be held at least partially responsible if anything goes wrong.

[quote who="SirBedwyr" reply="8" id="2870587"]Sorry but it's just not nice to speak ill of the dead or dying. There's always time to critique or criticize later. I think soliciting well wishes for a well known luminary of the computing world is a decent thing to do.[/quote] so if hitler or idi amin or pol pot were still alive but very ill and dying it would be bad form to comment on the evil things they did just because it's 'bad form"?. i think not.

these floods are awful, not affecting me this time around as i am in bendigo, victoria, but in 1998 during the katherine floods in the Northern Territory my house had only the top 12 inches of the roof showing. My thoughts are with all those affected by the queensland floods and i can offer this, The water does go down and life does go on even though right now it doesn't seem that way. Good luck to you all. :)

[quote]Normally we don't do price matching on past orders, but you caught me and Zoomba in a good mood. The sale price is a one day only sale for today. I've refunded the difference for you.[/quote] I think stardock did a very nice thing in refunding the difference. But i do have to ask why?. it's his problem that he bought the game when he did.

[quote who="Phoon" reply="4" id="2852663"]Good info Doc. Stardock's powerful application, "Right Click". Why bother. It's works like crap on Win7 I thought ,and is no longer being developed. [/quote] Rightclick works perfectly on Win 7 32bit but i am not surprised it doesn't work on 64bit. It does need to be supported by stardock again. How they could abandon such a useful program is beyond me.

Can i suggest that you download and run this progran from Soluto. It's a boot analyser and will analyse your computer while it is booting then present you with a graphical window of everything that loads at startup (including windows files) and also give you the time that each process is taking. With this information you may be able to locate and disable the offending processes that are being time hogs. Once you have finished analysing, either disable soluto from running at startup or uninsta
