Reply to Windows Defender is MSE, and MS changed it for Security Companies and OEM’s. in Personal Computing WinCustomize Forums

I have used MSE and windows firewall on my machine for ages and have NEVER been hit by any nasties. I also do manual scans with malwarebytes and spybot 2 or 3 times a week. No security software is infallible and straight out common sense is the best way to avoid being hammered by viruses and malware. The way i see it, If Microsoft want to include MSE as standard in THEIR operating system then why not?. You are free to not purchase it after all. And it looks like they will include options to n

Reply to So, you like Windows 7... in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

No problems with Windows 7 here, I ran vista and found it to be a sluggish mess and as soon as you pressed the O/S to do anything strenuous it would fall over and cry it's eyes out. No such problem with Win 7. Maybe the problem is with the machine and not the O/S. Time to upgrade perhaps?. It could be a variety of reasons but it easiest to blame the Operating System instead of the hardware running it. Like Lightstar said if you run regular or daily maintenance problems should be few and f

Reply to After changing graphics card (hd5770 to 6870) temperature much higher! in DeskScapes WinCustomize Forums

You can try this software http://www.almico.com/speedfan.php to see if you can increase the fan speed (be aware the faster the fan the noisier the card). Also as the new card is a higher end model it could be that it just runs hotter than your old one. Try looking at the ATi web site http://www.amd.com/us/product

Rebooting will not fix this issue, you need to do a fresh install Uninstall windowblinds completely from your computer, then use a registry tool to remove all traces of the program from your system. reboot and then do a complete fresh install of windowblinds again. Hopefully that will solve your issue. If not send an email to [email protected] outlining you problem and they should be able to offer further help. I hope you get this sorted mate :)

Reply to Theory of the Prometheus Movie in Movies & TV & Books WinCustomize Forums

Just watched Prometheus. Gotta say i am disappointed. Even though Ridley Scott does a halfway decent job of introducing the alien movies. I have to say there are more plot holes than a swiss cheese and if not for the CGI it would be a SyFy weekday movie. My 2 cents

are you using the full or trial version of windowblinds?. it will make a difference. If you have been using the trial then after the 30 days it will no longer work regardless if you uninstall and then reinstall the program. please copy and paste your windowblinds info here so people who are more knowledgable than myself can take a look. to access the windowblinds info, Open windowblinds and then click the about windowblinds button and then click copy to clipboard, then paste from clipboard in

Hasn't Apple been doing this for years?. Closed systems. Why when MS do it they get vilified but when Apple do it they get called forward thinking. I mean who cares?. People will still buy it because that's what people do. Instead of whining and bitching complain with your wallet. MS is allowed to do anything they want with the software *gasp* they develop.
