yeah, i looked in the program directory (C:\Program Files\Spyware Terminator) and found nothing that could make it that big! I also looked in the application data folder and couldn't find anything at all!Doesn't matter anymore though, I changed to PC Tools Spyware Doctor. It seems like a good program so far, works well and doesn't slow my computer down!Thanks for the help-jimmy

Does anyone actually know what is causing all the problems? Cause I was thinking of getting a XBOX 360, but if there is all these 'Red Ring' problems, maybe i should wait till they have worked out what the problem is!Though, I do have some friends who will be greatly relieved by this news! They have been getting rather worried that If their console crashes, they are out because its out of warranty.Imagine how angry Microsoft is that they are going to have to fork out over $1 billion to fix the consoles!

I have been using IPB for ages now, I actually have the 1.3 version while it was still free. Which means, technically, I'm allowed to use it on my site totally for free. Only problem is security as they stopped security patches for it ages ago.If I didn't have IPB, i would go with phpBB, its nice and simple to install, as well as use. Lots of themes and extensions out there for it, and of cause its free!And hosting, I much prefer to host it myself - I like to have total control of my forums and be able to change whatever I want. Most of the 'free' forum hosting sites wont give you total control and only allow you to access the control panel - but thats it!

the dead links are because he hasn't finished any other pages - hes getting the template right on the index page before using it on all the other pages!

the only CPanels I have ever used have had rvblue as the theme, so I am used to it now! But seeing the new CPanel 11 base theme, i would much prefer to use it then the rvblue them we have at the moment!

Hey Dayne, welcome to Xisto. Its good to see another Australian join the Xisto community!Hopefully I'll see you around the forums soon!-jimmy

wutske, I had the same problem too. I have a Realtek Ac'97 built-in sound card on my motherboard and i can use the stereo/mono mix in audacity to record audio, anything that I can hear, it records. But when i tested out Vista, I had the same problems - no stereo or mono mix at all - which meant I couldn't record sound from videos etc etc.Though, my new sound card, I have an external Creative Sound Blaster, has a built in 'What U Hear' feature which records the sound playing through the speakers at near perfect quality. This works in both Creative's recording studio, as well as audacity. I have yet to try the new sound card in Vista (I don't feel like installing Vista just for that purpose).

Well, In some ways you were right! It was originally from an assignment! And whoever said that curiosity killed the cat, i say the cat should have been more careful!

We are still using the GSM network in Australia. Telstra has phased out CDMA in rural areas (cause thats where it was mainly used) and has replaced it with 3G, so the rural, country folk have to upgrade, but the GSM users in town don't HAVE TO just yet.Telstra has almost finished implementing 3G coverage across Australia. Because the 3G handsets can roam on the 3G and GSM networks, this means that people with 3G compatible handsets have more then, i think they said 99% coverage over Australia.I don't yet have a 3G handset, only because I don't need it. Yes, the extra speed that the EDGE network has is great, but I just dont need it yet. And as you said, its quite expensive! To purchase a 3G phone is very expensive, though Telstra has just released 3G Pre-Paid, which will be good for some people. You can even watch Pay-TV channels on your 3G mobile now!

so can we expect the new theme of CPanel 11 or are we going to keep the rvblue theme we have now?

Here in Australia, the big telco has just starting phasing out the CDMA network to make way for the third generation network it has recently deployed around Australia. This means, by January next year, there will be no more CDMA in Australia!

well i was just able to connect to CPanel. After I entered my username and password, it asked me to update my email address. Im not sure if this was in light of this 'update' we just saw, or if this happens normally (ive never had it happen before)!According to CPanel, the server is running fine, and has been for the last 9 days, so maybe it went offline for a while when they updated it. And, we have a new version, according to CPanel, its version 11.4.2-RELEASE-13517. Doesn't look much different!Anyway, we have a new version, which must have been the cause of the downtime!

In office 2003 i think, you can set the word count as a toolbar and click on the recount button whenever you want to find out how many words you have, in office 2007, the word count is displayed all the time in the bottom status bar, along with page count, spelling etc.

well, last year as part of our programming course, we made a simple program (this was way back at the start) that calculated numbers in a textbox. We then, in class, adapted it to a kind of Point-of-sale program, which had its flaws. Recently, i was going over the old archives of work looking for something and found the project. So this was just trying to update it a bit!-jimmy

i just checked my email address in google, and got the hosting request page for when i signed up for hosting! Not that im getting any spam, but how is this possible if the requests are not cached by google?

Thanks heaps! Works perfectly!-jimmy

with the new code, when the value gets to say $1.94, it rounds it back to $1.91 and when it gets to $1.99, it rounds to $1.96. Both of those don't work, but everything else rounds perfectly

Hi, I am making a program that calculates prices from somewhere like a supermarket and need to be able to calculate prices. I would like it to be able to round to 5 cents (as that is our currency in Australia). I have so far got it to round to the 5c, but it is always rounding down. so if the total came to $1.99, the rounded total would come out as $1.95. This is the code I have so far Dim total, amount As Decimal amount = Me.amount.Text total = Me.total.Text.Trim("$") total = total + amount Me.total.Text = "$" + total.ToString Dim offset, value, temp, result As Decimal offset = 0.05 value = Me.total.Text.Trim("$") temp = value / offset temp = System.Math.Truncate(temp) result = temp * offset Label1.Text = "$" + result.ToStringAll I need is for it to round up or down depending on what the price is. Thanks -jimmy

looks much better! keep up the good work and I cant wait to see it when its done!-jimmy

I like it! Its nice and simple and works well on my screen resolution (1280 x 1024). One suggestion, the labels for the chat box on the right, maybe change the text colour to a darker colours so they are easier to read. Otherwise, its looking good! Keep up the good work!-jimmy

What type of game server do you have and what game are you playing. Without this, we cannot help you-jimmy

If you do end up using excel, i have a excel document that I made while I was in Year 10 at school. It was a basic budget calculator and used the VLOOKUP function. I'll attach it so you can have a look at how it works. Have a look on the wages tab, where it calculates tax, there is a VLOOKUP function for how much tax to be payed - something similar to what you are doing!Good Luck-jimmy

Hopefully you will be able to sort it out with themGood Luck-jimmy

well you can use graphics (like clipart) in excel. But i dont think you can actually use functions like VLOOKUP in word. Thw only way taht I know of is making a excel document and importing it into word (as a object). From what you have posted, my initial thoughts were of excel for a project of this nature. Where you quoted before a template would be where they can re-enter students names each term. This template, to my understanding would be best made in excel. The mathematical functions that you can use in excel aren't available in word, which makes me think that you would use excel.

This task would be completed in Excel. The VLOOKUP function finds values from another area of the sheet, or on another different sheet. You would use that for finding the percentage for discounts so if the number of days prior to course start is < 7 then 0% discount. So your 'discount table' would have the days in one column (days before course starts) and the percentages in another. So you type the amount of days left when the fees were payed under the students name, and the VLOOKUP function will find the percentage that needs to be discounted. Have a look at some websites that explain the use of VLOOKUP and understand that before you start making this assignment. Some good sites are: https://www.techonthenet.com/excel/formulas/vlookup.php http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ (example 2 is about marking up values, which is the opposite of what you are doing, but is easily swapped) Good Luck -jimmy
