It's a bad word becuase it is considered offensive by the vast majority. And whilst it can be used as another for faeces, I dont think trappedinpoop is much better. That just sounds disgusting. the f word is vulgar, regardless of context. And no, I don't see my life as trapped in my own faeces. I suggest that those who do, consult a doctor or shrink as soon as possible.

Yeah, but Firefox stole tabbed browsing as well!

Overhauling like communism to me. The reason footballers get paid so much, is becuase their employers (football clubs) are willing to pay that much for them, and can afford to pay that much, whereas the employers of firefighters simply cannot. Professional footballers don't deserve the vast amounts of money they get for the 'job' that they do, but if their clubs want to pay them that much, so be it.

My idea is simply to have a button on the side of a TV which makes your remote control beep when pressed. It's a simple way to find it and I can't believe it hasn't been done!

It wouldn't work. Firstly as the people above have said, the chips would go all soggy and also, it would be really expensive to have to make two seperate batches of chips. (you can tell i'm british here!)

Sophos is not free and not cheap. It's for business use really. You can expect to find it in a lot of schools and offices.

Fortunately, the next version of Office will not include Clippit! I gotta admit, that dog was cute! Especially when he did that dance whenever I saved. Then I got bored after a couple of days and turned the feature off...

I was wondering that as well. It's hardly a good idea to put expletives in the forum of a website that hosts professional free web hosting.

I wouldn't think you'd be banned, and if you report to the mods, they might not take away any hosting credits. I once had a thread moved to the the spammers section, which was deleted without me losing credits. I was quite worried and did some manic posting, to make sure my account didn't get suspended!

Had I not read this earlier post from you in another thread, I would have agreed with what the people who replied earlier said. It seems that this is not an isolated incident. With the school already suspicious of your activites on their network, it wouldn't surprise me at them deciding to expel you. If you get accepted back, I suggest you use the pc like most others do and stop being so curious about the network - you know what it did to the cat!

When you got the error about the table already existing, you could simply back that table up, and then delete it out of your database, by going into phpMyadmin in the cpanel. If you never got round to sucessfully installing the forum, then the front page wont work.

The two problems I think Microsoft will have, in terms of Vista's sales when it is first released is that the previous gaps of Windows had a very short gap between hte next release. There's been a huge gap between the release of XP and Vista, so during that period, most people have gone up to XP and are quite happy with it. They'll be thinking, "why should I upgrade when the OS I have now does everything I need?" The other problem, is that there are few programs which are really memory/cpu intensive. Not many pieces of software (im specifically excluding pc games here btw) fully take advantage of your "brand new Dell XPS" I reckon that with a 1.5ghz 512mb ram pc, you could run just about every program the standard home user needs to run, without any problems, so the home user might be thinking "Why upgrade to Vista or buy a new pc when my current one does everything I need?" Vista will have a slow takeup but most computers will be probably running it by 2009. Fortunately, Vienna isn't scheduled for release untill 2011, giving Vista plenty of time to gain popularity.

In your admin panel, there should be a bit which says "Virtual Server" - this is bit where the port forwarding is. I wouldn't use the De Militerized Zone, as that can be a bit of a security risk.

Yeah, my phone's got similar protection. In fact most electronics nowadays are protected against spills and drops. I saw on QVC a consumer HP camera that was totally weatherproof - they dipped it in a pool of water when it was on, and it still worked fine. I've dropped my digi camera and Pen drive numerous times, and fortunately, they haven't broken yet.

I've got a copy of Suse lying around, but I've never used it.

Highest speed available to home users in the UK, is 24mbps, which is available on select telephone exchanges in London and other parts. At the moment, British Telecom is in the process of upgrading all telelphone exchanges to support 8mb, with a lot of home users possibly receiving broadband speed increases, some for free depending on your ISP. To give an example, you can now get 8Mbps broadband for Ł15! ($26 US) If there was 30gb broadband commercially available, you'd find yourself limited by two things. The speed of the server, and the speed of your harddrive!

Too funny, too funny! Try not to worry about tomorrow, just laugh at yourself - those who can, don't get laughed at as much by others!

I quite like that website, but if you want to merge your website with your forum, than doing the above might not be suitable. phpBB is one of the best known free ones, but seems to have a lot of security holes in. I remember back sometime last year when you could make yourself an administrator simply by editing a cookie. I've no experince of other free boards, but if you're willing to pay then go for Invison Power Board. You'll notice that the link in the quoted message above will install an invision power board, difference is that the purchased version is yours and it's a higher version and has more features. I'm just looking at SMF now, and I'm pretty impressed with it! I might use it on my website, when it is back up and running Notice from BuffaloHELP: Two posts merged due to two topics merging on OpaQue reply.

I'm sure that somewhere there are a lot of muslims who aren't at all prejudice against any race or religion however just like semeticsister, we often find ourselves basing our opinions on our experiences. Most muslim peope I know don't like Jewish people. Of course, it could be that the majority of them do not think like that, however as I've not come across anyone thinking otherwise, I am led to believe that in general muslims do not like Jewish people.Of course, making assumptions like that is sometimes dangerous. I once knew a woman who was mugged by a black person, and promptly turned prejudice against all black people and didn't like to be anywhere near them. Even though this was an isolated incident, she based her prejudices on 1 event, but going back to the topic, I feel that semeticsister has experienced discrimination before and therefore maybe cannot be blamed for their opinions.

They can't get rid of him! No-one can do that scared look as well as him. His performance in the Chamber of Secrets where they enter the forest and meet Aragog had me in hysterics! The child actors are definitely growing fast though. I wonder if they'll manage to get to make all seven movies before they're all grown up?

I liked that story. Never fallen down a set of stairs meself - Managed to fall up a set of stairs once after running though. Next time, if you're going to fall down a set stairs, make sure you've got more than a towel on!

Yep, they mean 15 days.

I dont think you can move Invisionfree at all, as AFAIK, they dont give you access to the Invision install files. You would need to either get the Invision files (which can't be gotten legally anymore) or see if it is possible to convert it to phpBB.

I'm raising an eyebrow, because now that all of the options have changed to "unlimited," I cannot add parked domains. Also, I haven't seen any message from the administrators about it, and the ticket I raised 1 day and 14 hours ago has not been replied to yet. I'm not moaning for the sake of it, nor to boost my hosting credits. I'm moaning becuase maybe the admin might take notice, and fix these problems, or at least keep us updated as to what is going on. My site can no longer be easily accesed as the feature I need most is not available.

I don't understand it personally, but as said in another thread - it seems muslims and jews just don't seem to get along. Personally, I don't understand why people discriminate against others based on religion or anything else. I'm sorry that happened to you.
