[quote who="Timmaigh" reply="36" id="3166689"]to me, TV is dead. I just upgraded my net connection to optic-fiber one, 40/20 Mbit no FUP for 12 EUROs per month and i am going totally rely on that - even for watching TV stuff. Sopcast FTW![/quote] Sigh. Fiber is a pain to work with but worth all the results.

There was one suggestion that I would have said already, and is the easiest. That is to copy (or move) the file outside of Windows directories. There is a feature that prevents programs from being run "externally" to keep from running a malicious one. Using this format might work C:\Windows\Sysnative\MarineAquarium3.scr It worked for a shortcut I wanted that would not run from the System32 directory. Mine was an exe file, but perhaps it would work with scr. I am nearly
I love my speed dial - Firefox type. My whole internet world is in it. Nothing the same for any other browser. I hate that Firefox is such a hog memory wise, but I've tried the others and they just don't "fit" my style. Can anyone tell me how to turn off the thing where Google registers every search link you click on? Watch the address bar, first it does some flip through Googleland and then goes to wherever the link is for. I'd rather Google didn't know where I
I used to use the forced air on the keyboards at the paper mill. I designed a database that the shipping department used. The one department would key in the loads and the boys on the dock take them off. Every few weeks they complained it wasn't working and I went down to blast the keyboards, find the missing keys, put them back on, and reinstall the keyboards. They had those old clunker keyboards that nothing would hurt - I could have hosed them out and they would have been fine. I have
Salutes. I never served overseas, but I have friends who are still there.
Good Good. I have a heck of a time with fair rides, you have some good ones. The perspectives work (another thing I forget to do) I can see why you are wanting an upgrade, but most of those are just as good as SLR.
When I worked in the medical field we SWORE on our mother's grave that the lunies come out with the full moon. Here we've had the WTF guy, the UNINSTALLED guy, and one that insults the Memorial Day holiday (which I still object to the USA putting on a Monday). I know it is supposed to be a time of remembrance and contemplation, but gee wiz. Eat a BBQ hotdog and watch the ATVs on the sand. I'd say "drink a beer" but beer ain't allowed on the dunes here.

I am looking for a lighter footprint browser as Firefox runs about 1g when I use it. I downloaded Arora but was disappointed that it has been 2 years since anyone touched it and there appear to be no plugins. This one looks good to try, thanks for pointing it out.
Just a question, if you love your current camera why are you replacing it? My housemate has a fixed lens, variable distance, 12 (or is it 16) MP camera. It cost about $400 and she has won tons of awards and done some commercial work with it. Sometimes it isn't the gear, it's the eye. I have to stare at something to shoot it, she just pops out of the car and fills up her memory card and at least a dozen of the shots someone would pay for.
I would choose ISO over MP if I had to make a choice, that is because of the shooting I do. Many, many times I have wished I had a faster one. My current camera (which was considered "high" MP under the pro bodies when I got it) I need to upgrade as it is way too low MP. I'm going for something around 16 but would settle on 12 if the price was good. Last I investigated the working MP without high-end software was something like 16. Hard to work with higher MP if your monitor and gra

I tried looking at the theme file, but it is in binary. I'm thinking that maybe I have the wrong version of IconPackager or something. I have 32 bit 5.10.032 What I'm looking at and what I want to do is change some overlays. The list of what is installed shows Shortcut and Shield overlays. Without having the choice in the program, nearly every icon set I use has the Shared overlay - but I can't find it in the list (why wouldn't it be next to
In the US of A they have all reasons to raise tax, so far at $40K per person per year spending. The problem there is no money to pay them (coming from someone who shares a house with missing shingles with its owner because can pay rent) Maybe Gina would pay? FB going to mess up the economy if we don't get help from somewhere. I would really like to avoid taxes entirely - maybe move to Australia? Does Gina like dogs?
I'm one who doesn't like to dig for things. So recently I was looking for ways to reorganize my files a little. I have my entire book on the root of C:\ to make it easier to back it up. This includes some old stuff, licensed stuff, and the main graphics and documents directories. Before, the documents were in the My Documents folder and the Graphics were in the My Pictures folder. I also had a shortcut in the Library that went to all three locations of Stardock files - User, Pub

I've been a Stardock client longer than they had Impulse. I know with Impulse I was always confused by it. I hated the interface, hated the game advertisements (to this day I do not know which games Stardock created) and hated the frustration to try to get it to recognize what I had purchased from Stardock. Time after time it told me I didn't have a license when I think I had one for nearly 10 years, and no matter what I did I could not convince it otherwise. The thing I miss from Imp
