I'd agree with that: number of posts means nothing: try more content!I've heard so many mixed reviews about Vista, and the majority of them tend to end up at the same end point: looks good, love the new interface, but you require newer hardware and some major upgrades to any systems that you want to upgrade with: also, as for being more secure and reliable than xp, it loses handsdown.I really do want to know whether I should bother upgrading at all... at the moment I'm considering for when Vista sp1 come out, but the fact that much of my software, and possibly my scanner and printer might suddenly stop being compatible with my os, leaves me wondering if I should EVER bother upgrading to vista.Alright, Vista my "rock", but in my opinion xp currently "rocks the hardest": give me a reason to believe otherwise...

Differences Between Trap17 & Qupis
dastrophy replied to leoncreations's topic in Web Hosting Support
Interestingly enough, the qupis site is currently down, and is instead showing a page saying: etc... So apparently they have been listening to someone, if they have installed cpanel... Still have ads though, so would never use them! -
WOW: has anyone seen all the new iPods, they are amazing, especially the iPod touch! Classic: same as the 5.5gen, except upto 160GB, slightly thinner, and not available in white http://www.apple.com/ipod/ Nano: shorter, and even thinner (6.5mm ~0.25 inches) but with higher res. screen, which allows movies http://www.apple.com/ipod-nano/ And the touch: looks amazing, and is basically an iPhone with wifi, but no calls... http://www.apple.com/ipod-touch/ (and new colors for the shuffle) And the iPod touch video just makes it look amazing: the only pity is the small size of the hard drive: but it is flash memory as opposed to hard drive, so at least it won't jump, and can use it for jogging etc. I think apple though are a little worried that it might cause a lack of popularity for the iPhone considering the price cut they gave it though...

At the moment, only the AW stats work, when you click update: the "Bandwidth" link still says I hav used none, but this may change if it is linked o the AW stats, I'll let you know if anything changesThanks for the feedback though, as you said, I can use AW stats, to check how much I am using, so I am not as worried as before

Yeah, xp is at the moment failry stable, though windows 2000 is still good: the only problem is that 2000 security support will run out soon (or already has, I can't remember) thus meaning it will not be as secure on the internet. As said as well, vista is still a little buggy, so it will be a little while before vista is good, and on top of this, xp is more effiecent at web browsing ( it uses alot less system resources for just running)

Currently my cpanel bandwidth is not counting anything! And while I am quite happy to keep this option... (unlimited bandwidth) I have a feeling that bandwidth IS getting registered somewhere, but I am not getting it recorded in my cpanel.I would be glad for any assistance, cheers

Out of interest, has anyone installed the file you can download from them, if so what is it actually?And I still think the best bit are the system requirements: not far off the rquirememnts for vista is the scariest bit!

I own a Motorola L6, and I was wondering if there is a better way of transfering Java applications onto it...At the moment, the only way is to access the java application using the internet or WAP on your phone (which isn't free for me, in fact it is rather expensive) , and download it for the phone to recognise it: Motorola Phone Tools doesn't allow the transfer of java, only pictures and ringtones. You can't send them via Bluetooth, or access them normally via usbThe only other method (which I haven't tried) is using the Motorola development SDK, which may allow you to send stuff to phones so it can be tested, but whether it does, I'm unsureSo I was wondering, does anyone have a better method, either a freeware app, or hack or similar which allows the free (and easy) transfer of java applications to some Motorola phones? (including the L6 slvr)

Best Movie Of All Time? what is the best movie of all time?
dastrophy replied to lil_chris's topic in General Discussion
Shawshank Redemption has got to be one of the most amazing films, especially when you see it the first time: the twist is brilliant, but also, considering there are no cgi graphics, or anything, so it is a good film just because of the film: not because of how much computer time it spent to make it! -
If you want to make sure you get rid of the virus, you could use: http://www.dban.org/ Oh and btw, EVERYTHING will be unrecoverable....even by the government.... After this you should be able to reformat the disk by inserting any operating system disk.... Perhaps I might say this: ONLY use as a last resort, and it may make your hard-disk unusable.... other than that, its a great program :XD:

Problem With Firefox, Latest Version, Not Loading Pages any ideas?
dastrophy replied to shadowx's topic in The Internet
Extremely interesting....especially as on a friend's computer, their firefox would stop access to all pages EXCEPT youtube...so suddely all the pages would time out, until you visited youtube (or a couple of other sites), at which point the internet connection would magically reappear: I get the feeling that there is more to that site then meets the eye.... -
There are very few good free download managers...the most important thing for me is one which allows auto-restarting, since my interent connection is not extremely reliable....Free Download Manager does this along with a couple of others, so that if your internet cuts out just after the 800th MB, you don't have to restart it all over agian which is useful....and yes, it does work even if you turn off your computer....

My system arrived witht this option DISABLED, so I doubt that setting it to 0 will have any adverses side-affects: I think rather it is better used for the opposite use, so if you are browsing a simple text forum or something and automatic updates is running, boost it up to 50% so that it actually downloads the same day, as opposed to you having to wait several hours after surfing for it to finish downloading...

Personally, I've never really liked the idea of adding extra functions which are not brilliant, into a program designed for something else: if you need an html editor, get an html editor!As for a notepad editor, I personally use the "editor" that is included with xplorer2, since it has lots of useful functions on its toolbar, including "goto line" and so on: all stuff that is useful for everyday notepad use, but I still use notepad occasionally
