Reply to Vista and DRM in Personal Computing WinCustomize Forums

This whole issue really sucks the big one. DRM this DRM that. I'm tired of these people (Microsoft) sticking it to the consumer. The major problem is the usability of other systems. A system based around the DRM mentality might be a pain in the butt, but think of the alternatives. Apple comps may look pretty, but gaming? I don't think so. Linux systems may sometimes seem like they are stable as a rock. The only downside to Linux-based systems i

Reply to Offline Activation Required in WindowBlinds WinCustomize Forums

All of this because someone does a monthly reformat... Sounds a bit obsessive-compulsive to me. I don't see what the problem is with connecting to the internet to activate. Go to your local library and hook up wirelessly. If it's a desktop, then just get over it and find some way to connect.

I'm thinking this might be a spyware/virus problem. Let's get the simple stuff out of the way. I don't want to insult your intelligence, but first update Firefox and Windowblinds. Personally I've never had this kind of problem before and I have Firefox extensioned out the wazoo. Are you using Stardock central to get the stuff or Firefox? I don't use SD Central so I'm not really familiar with it.

Reply to When the time is right, should Linux become mainstream? in Personal Computing WinCustomize Forums

I tried both Redhat and Mepis Linux and was not very impressed. I gave it a sincere effort for an entire semester in college. Even though I didn't have the time to dedicate to learning Linux and how everything works, I made the time. My experience with it, however, was lackluster. I did enjoy the Synaptic feature of Mepis. It allowed me to find a good number of software that I could use without any compiling. Some of these programs didn't quite c

Well, I've never thought about that. However, my icons look normal to me.

I guess this is what you get when you actually PURCHASE software...

Yeah, I've given up on this problem. I ended up reformatting my computer and doing a fresh install and updating my graphics drivers, but to no avail. Maybe this is an ATI graphics card issue? I say this because I noticed that (this sounds off subject) when I was looking for updates for Half-Life, I noticed they had an ATI specific fix. The graphics card would not correctly render underwater areas and the fix, well, fixed it.

Weird...it's working after a couple reboots. Nevermind. It's back to being screwed up.

All of those are at their defaults.

Thunder Storm. I have that same problem with a few other skins too.

Hey guys. I've searched around for an answer but I couldn't find one. What's the deal with this? Why are those white lines near the top? Whats the deal with the hide/unhide button area not being all the same color? I can't seem to fix this problem. I'm running Windows XP with updated ATI drivers for my laptop. I just purchased Windowblinds and have
