I wouldn't be screwed, because I don't put any information on the Internet that could be damaging to me if anyone else got it... Yeah, if you're putting personal information out there, then I would definitely stop using the Internet!

I'm not sure if a Firewall could cause a glitch like this or not, I would guess not, but ya' never REALLY know what goes on in "the box!" I did get an automated response that they (Microsoft) got my e-mail message. Just waiting for a response now. I figure I'll give them 2 weeks, and then either limp along on my "bad" copy of Windows until Vista comes out, or I'll use Linux for the time being! Yeah, I would say that most patches from Microsoft are either bogus, or just don't apply to your particular system. I don't think I really knew what it was when Microsoft said I had to have it ~ Live and learn ay? //Captain.Jerry/

I'll keep that in mind ~ Thanks... //Captain.Jerry/

Thanks for the luck. I found a place to write to them. So we'll see what happens. Yeah, I think I remember reading on a Kim Komando Tip of the Day, about changing your Product Key without having to do a reinstall... I'll have to hunt that eMail down somewhere in my Gmail... //Captain.Jerry/

How interresting... Thanks. (I'm not sure I understand it all, but I get the basic idea!)//Captain.Jerry/

Ahh, okay. Well it at least sounds like Microsoft will work with me, and maybe give me a break for being stupid! I'll let ya' know what they say...//Captain.Jerry/

Ugggg, I just found out (from my computer!) that my Operating System (XP Pro) isn't genuine I got a great deal on a used computer from a Swap Meet a few months ago. Will Microsoft accept a letter or something, along with a little toy cash register receipt and give me a license key, or will I have to buy a new copy? Dang, I should have known better, from now on, I'm building my own systems (I've been studying!)

Hmmm, okay, so maybe there are a few details that we'll need to work out!

This forum reminds me of a question/problem I had the last time I tried to go wireless... Everything set up just fine, and I was able to connect just fine, but I couldn't get past the message that said "Windows Not Found" or "Windows could not be located" or something like that. Does anybody have a clue as to what was wrong?

It was just a joke, and I made sure that I put it in a "no posts counts" forum... I don't cheat just to gain credits, I have plenty...

How to install a wireless security system: Go to a second-hand store, buy a pair of men's used work boots ... a really big pair. Put them outside your front door on top of a copy of Guns and Ammo magazine. Put a dog dish beside it ... a really big dish. Leave a note on your front door that says something like this: "Bubba, Big Mike and I have gone to get more ammunition - back in 30 minutes. Don't disturb the pit bulls, they've just been wormed."

Couldn't find another "socially oriented" forum that the subject of child abuse would have gone better, but I tried.

LOL... Meet Brent & Kimberly... Oh, but no, I don't wish MY parents were animals. That's just the title of the video! ROFL...

Me too!

One day? I'm currently a parent of two wonderful children. A boy, 8, and a girl 6!
