  1. but already it's out that Firefox 1.0.4 has a couple major security holes, as well as internet explorer. there isn't a patch available for it, there are workarounds available, but Mozilla said they won't release a patch until v.1.0.5 comes out.
  2. i don't believe there's any filesize limit. there IS a limit on the total webspace, which seems that if you get near to your limit it thinks you've gone over your allotted amount, but other than that, the only limitation is in the type of files uploaded
  3. my 3 would be Photoshop, Dreamweaver, and Winamp. ---in that order.

    Iraq

    keeping in mind that the US effectively crippled the UN program by instigating a WAR right after the UN declared sanctions on Iraq, i don't think that u can blame the UN. How logical is that? You impose sanctions, and a week later declare they're not working. This is so elementary. Where's the positive fruit you speak of? Why are Americans hated by almost everyone in the Middle East? Why is most of the Iraqi civilian population still without water & electricity? Why is there this increased hostility towards innocent Americans abroad? Because of Bush, and his pride. What kind of resolutions is the US going to enforce? remember that the original UN resolution was NOT to attack militarily in Iraq, but to use economic sanctions. The US blatantly disregarded this resolution. there are countless examples of America's violations of international laws, the geneva convention, etc. THERE IS NO JUSTIFICATION FOR THE U.S. TO DO AS IT HAS DONE.
  5. i tried reinstalling the drivers. but since i bought the computer a year ago they're sorta outdated. but i can't find new ones. i'll check the support forum.
  6. umm....i use NOD32, haven't found anything that can beat it. but there are soooo many threads already on this topic.
  7. yeah that's what frustrates me. because my sticker doesn't say HT, but when i run the Tweak-Xp Processor Check, it says it is. could it just be a glitch?
  8. i have a Compaq Presario 2568CL, and my info says HT supported, not enabled. how do i enable it, and are there any possible pitfalls in doing so?
  9. dude, you seriously need to upgrade the ram. even 512 hardly cuts it if you're doing anything other than tiny stuff. my photoshop ram usage regularly runs into the 350 MBs. but if u don't like it using so much, in the preferences page you can customise the amount of ram photoshop can use from your system.

    Iraq

    let's leave it then. first of all, it's pretty obvious he didn't have WMD. why? because the US would not have attacked him if he did. why don't they attack north korea? because they actually have nuclear capability. and they said saddam had that, plus WMD. if he really did have them they would have negotiated a settlement with him. America's economy is going down, and the US only started pressuring Iraq after Saddam insisted on Euro payments instead of Dollars, which would have had the effect of weakening the already shaky dollar, and obviously America couldn't countenance that. But how do you justify taking innocent lives so that you can keep living your selfish lifestyle? America has put the country into a far deeper hole than it ever was. research some more, about how Iraq was before the Gulf war. as i said before, it was one of the most advanced countries in the middle east. And as far as Saddam's hiding proving his guilt, what would you do if attackers were searching for you? You'd hide too, but that wouldn't mean you were guilty. i'm not saying that Saddam wasn't guilty, but he was no more guilty, and i dare say even less so, than the States. that's my 2c.
  11. i get a BSOD when i run NFS, after a few minutes. this is the info:STOP: 0x0000008E (0xC0000005, 0XFFA4D3E9, 0xAAE005F8, 0x00000000)ati3d1ag.dll -- Address BFA4D3E9 base at BFA09000, DATESTAMP 3d5c7519does anyone have a solution? i've tried looking for an updated driver, but no success.I'm running a Radeon 9200 IGP 345M with 64 MB shared ram.my other sys spex are:XP PRO1 GB ram60 GB HD2.66 Ghz Pentium 4
  12. i have a creative 20GB, bought it on a whim at a duty free, and so far i've been happy with it. the battery doesn't last as long as advertised, but it gets through at least 12 hours. --- i haven't tried it for longer periods. i don't know about the ipod as i'm not any srt of mac fan, but the zen touch uses a hard drive instead of flash memory, so if the ipod used flash, that would be a point in favor.

  15. i hate the dvd functions in WMP. i much rather use some other like WinDVD. i use winamp for most things, because of the multiple skins available. it also runs smoother and with less system resources than WMP. though one good thing that they added to WMP 10 was Mp3 encoding capability. that was a stupidly simple thing that should have been included a long time ago.oh yes, the vizualizations available for winamp are far beyond the WMP ones.
  16. hahaha, can u imagine what it would be like if there was a crowded walking street and two cars had an accident up above? ok, not two normal cars, u say because there will be traffic laws. but not everyone obeys the law, and so what? everyone is going to put crash pads on the outside of their walls, reinforced roofs over their gardens, i mean, you couldn't even relax anymore at the beach!
  17. I have a Nikon Coolpix 3100. It's never given me any problems, stated as 3.2 MP, but you can choose double quality, effectively 6.4 MP. very clear photos, good colors, quick focusing even at night, lots of manual options and lots of automatic presets, 3x optic zoom, 4x digital zoom. Very small size, uses 2 AA batteries. those are the pros.the cons are no sound recording on video, and high drain on batteries.but if i were to buy another one, it would definitely be this brand.
  18. yes, i always use google too. but it doesn't index EVERYTHING, and so i sometimes use others like altavista.com

    Iraq

    oh please! The iraqi people are no more liberated than they were before. Before all of this happened, including the first gulf war, Iraq had one of the highest standards of living in the Mideast. That means ALL the people, not just the rich. Health care was free, schools and universities were free, food was subsidised. America and only america is to blame for the state the country is in right now. Saddam may have been a tyrant and a dictator, but we see now how the country runs without someone keeping all the different factions under control. Saddam had NO WMD. that was admitted by the state department afterwards. Sure the average Iraqi is happy to see Saddam gone, but he'd be even more happy to see the Americans gone. I bet you didn't know that Iraq had a huge christian population, and that Saddam protected the christians and the church. In fact, the highest ranking bishop in Iraq said after the "liberation" that he no longer felt safe, that Saddam had protected them. that's a lot more than you can say for several other countries in the gulf, such as Kuwait & Saudi Arabia. talk about human rights violations, prisoner abuse, and discrimination? why doesn't America step in there? all this talk about freedom is just a smokescreen.
  20. to flash the bios, download the appropriate bios from the internet, then generally unzip to a floppy, and stick it in your computer. plus the instructions should be on the site where you'll download the bios from.

    Iraq

    America used the WMD scare to attack Iraq, just to get the oil. Now it comes out WMD reports were falsified, nobody cares. It would be nice if all other participating countries pulled their soldiers out of Iraq, and left it to the USA and the USA alone to figure out how they'll either run the country or run from it. they're the ones who started it, they can stay there and get killed if they want, but why drag other countries into fighting your wars? and what about the Iraqi people? they're even worse off. I hope they're able to make it so hard for the army that america has to back out and lose face before the world, in addition to any vestigal form of respect they had before, which they've already lost.
  22. well why would u lose all your files if you simply restarted the computer? what u need to do is get a registry cleaner. or you can do it yourself. through regedit. delete all registry keys related to photoshop, then restart and reinstall it, and it should install fine with no problem.
  23. this is a long shot, but you wouldn't happen to have a friend visiting the states?because for that price you can get a brand new one there. i just bought one for someone, for $750. ---i knew someone who was visiting for a couple weeks, and they picked it up. these were the specs: * Pentium 4, 2,6Ghz * 512MB DDR-SDRAM * 60GB HDD * DVD/CD-RW Device * 3,5" Floppy * 15.1" TFT Display * Graphic Card Intel 64MB * S-Video * 10/100 Mb LAN * 2 x PCMCIA * 1 x Firewire * 4 x USB 2.0 * Wireless 802.11b/g
  24. um, yeah, the password thing i guess is kind of redundant. more applicable would be to have one main computer that can control the other's access. thanks for your help, and i look forward to more of your posts.
