When the prompt comes up again, check not to show this update again. There's no such option. You either have to option to turn notifications off for everything or nothing. The only time you get that option is for SDC itself. <img src="http://images.sta

Good God,this is a fine desk MountainDragon, excellent space usage and appealing workpanel. I agree. I'm extremely impressed with that theme, and I think that's something Stardock should use! <img src="http://images.stardock.com/wc/icons/wc.gif" border=

I don't believe that's true of IE anymore. I believe it now defaults to a reasonably safe configuration, though arguably still not safe enough. I still say the vast majority of problems are user error, however.

I'm a beer guy, usually Micholob Ultra. Though if I'm kind of tired, Red Bull & vodka makes for a nice drink that keeps you up.

As an American, I am not offended at all that he makes a fool of himself. Yes, I'd be more offended if I was French. Not really offended, but embarrassed. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/wc/icons/wc.gif" border=0 alt="Posted via WinCustomize Brows

I don't want to speak for Brad, but I would think the idea would be to not only show what OD can do, but do so in an environment that the user would want to use on their own system. I know personally, the themes that have always appealed to me not only look great, but are very organized and functional. I think showing all the different things it can do would be better served on multiple screen shots, rather than trying to fit everything on one screen

I have yet to get a virus while using IE while employing a good virus scanner. I've yet to get one and I don't use a real-time virus scanner. But I do practice safe hex. If you use the security features built into IE, keep up with any patches, and aren't careless on the web, it's quite safe. <

Reply to Oh, but is there a way to post something that won't be deleted before 5 mn? in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Since 99.9% of us have no problem posting without being deleted within five minutes, obviously, the answer is YES! Here's a few tips: 1. Don't be rude. You can get your point across without being an asshole. 2. Don't start numerous threads that all say the same thing. 3. LISTEN. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/wc/icons/wc.gif" border=0 alt="Posted via WinCust

Reply to Yahoo Music Service Challenges iTunes in Internet WinCustomize Forums

Can Google be far behind? Just curious, if you transfer these files to a portable device, how does it know your subscription is expired, and to stop playing those files? I have a 1GB portable MP3/WMA player, but I don't believe it supports Microsoft's Janus DRM.

Apple is falling victim to its own sort of success here. It can't just release pedestrian upgrades anymore, we expect each and every product released by them to blow our socks off. Especially when they charge $129 for it. <img src="http://images.stardock
