  1. I would use something like ccleaner and use the imbedded add/remove programs list. Run it in safe mode to be sure. Then run a registry scan to clean it all up.
  2. Excerpt from Article I feel like all the black market recycling should be watched much more closely. There is a lot of things wrong with these corporate companies polluting, but just look at some of these pictures from this National Geographic Article. Do you think anyone can ever regulate or reverse what has been done to 3rd world countries and the environment? I don't think there is a way to reverse what humans have screwed up..
  3. rvalkass is right on. Your best bet would be a hardware firewall via a router. (standalone hardwire firewalls can be expensive). You also need to run scans of ad aware, spybot s&d and have an active setup like spyware blaster. You then need a solid antivirus. After those steps are taken, and you are fairly smart on the web, you will have good protection.
  4. the wc3 validator. I check out on css, but am having problems with xhtml.
  5. I dont really like avg. I have used avast,but i like avira's gui better, although it has a nag screen after an update. It doesn't really give any false positives like avg and hasn't let anything slip past either. I would have to say 1. avira2. avast3. avg...as far as free antivirus software goes.
  6. Hi im a newb and I got a new domain for my site via godaddy. I have linked the A name to what is listed as the shared IP in cpanel. I have also used the custom nameservers to correspond with my Xisto account :Xisto - Web Hosting.mars.orderbox-dns.comXisto - Web Hosting.earth.orderbox-dns.comXisto - Web Hosting.venus.orderbox-dns.comXisto - Web Hosting.mercury.orderbox-dns.comBut it does not redirect to my xxxxxx.trap17.com site. If i try to park the domain it says it isnt linked to dns servers related to this server.How would I get this setup?
  7. I have been trying to validate my site with xhtml 1.1 and I am supposed to serve it as an application vs. text/html...1. It recommends changing to .xml or .xhtml extension but when I do this in my home folder it doesn't recognize the extension and calls is text/generic.2. Yes, i have added the mime type in apache, but I don't know why it doesn't recognize it?? It recognized a pearl script I made. 3. I also tried adding a perl script to the top of my pages to declare mime type but it doesn't seem to be working.How can I get cpanel to recognize these files and serve them properly. Im a newb, thanks!
  8. are you using 192.168.1.1 to get access? Sometimes the router can get a little weird. You might need to reset your router and reset your password to get in. I have the same router. If you can ping the router and you have dhcp running, internet, etc. it is working fine and probably just a little buggy and could use a reset.
  9. If you gained weight with your walking, you may have gained muscle. Remember muscle weighs more than fat. I would suggest walking but take some light dumbells and walk with those. That should burn some fat and lean your body some.
  10. If you have bad handwriting a tablet pc probably wont pick it up. The recognition software is mediocore at best. I did a lot of research for a inexpensive portable laptop and found one that I got for myself and one for my mother she liked mine so much. It is the Fujitsu B3101D series. Touchscreen, Ultra Low Voltage 1.0ghz Pentium M, 512DDR, 40gb hdd. It weighs about 3lbs and does everything I need it to do. It cost me about $300 off ebay business lease.
  11. good stuff..i use many of those...how about vlan, the gimp, bcwipe, etcand for video conversion...convertxtodvd or winavi converter.
  12. I have had Vista Ultimate since it first came out and ive used atitool just fine and do till this day
  13. glad you got that figured out...if you ever want to test overclocking that card try atitool. It also will give you some temps. I have an MSI 8600GT and put a zalman heatsink on it...makes a whole lotta difference....good luck
  14. I would suggest what has been mentioned above as well. Cleaning the chip and reapplying thermal compound can't hurt and upgrading to an aftermarket cpu fan can make all the difference. Sometimes the retail stock heatsinks are just horrible. It isn't uncommon to see a 10 deg cel. drop with a new cpu heatsink/fan. Don't forget to check your case fans...make sure they flow correctly (front to back and bottom to top) and are working. Good Luck

  16. +1 for prime 95....or you could just run lots of apps and play a game or two and stress it out yourself; but that doesn't do constant prolonged stress like prime 95....
  17. rvalkass is correct, check to see if you have an OEM version. If you do not, you can install it onto another machine. If you get trouble when activating, just call the 1-800 # and do it over the phone. Just say that your hdd crashed and you had to reinstall. I had to do this on mine after my os messed up. You will probably talk to someone in India, and they will not ask many questions. Good luck!
  18. I had a dlink and it died after a year or so. Now i use a netgear and it has been good. I also use a linksys at my other house and flashed it with dd-wrt firmware which gives it abilities of a $300 router pretty much. I have not had any problems with the wrt54g linksys.
  19. thanks for that link. I am new to this stuff and modified some previous code, so this will help me make things straighten out. And sorry about the multiple posts. I posted topic and refreshed main page for a min or two and it didn't show so I thought it didn't go through.
  20. Could you guys please review my website. I feel like it is suitable for what it is. I have a side computer repair business, but am not investing a lot of money in it. I think the useability is good. I am new to the web design world. I am just happy to have made this site and I am just happy to get the php email form working. Any suggestions are welcome. http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/
  21. Windows File sharing has always worked for me. Are you able to setup windows file sharing? (if you have them networked I assume you have sharing set up) What operating systems are you running?
  22. I was hoping some linux tech heads here could give me some pointers about installing linux onto a laptop I have which has no cd drive. To make things worse it does not even boot from usb. I had installed XP on it with an unattended install using the /makelocalsource switch which copies files to the local hdd then finishes setup from there after reboot. Is there an easy switch function to install any linux distro once you have the files on your hdd? (I have a mapped network drive to my laptop and sharing from my desktop so i can access my files. I just don't know if it will work)
  23. ive used kubuntu, ubuntu, phlax, backtrack, and sabayon linux. I really like sabayon, but haven't seen it mentioned here at all....currently i do not have a distro installed on my laptop or desktop, but will most likely get to it this summer.
  24. I wanted to go there for college a few years ago to do video game design. It just cost too much for me, but I went to tour it anyways. They had state of the art equipment back in 2003 and it was a very "alternative" school. Lots of music, theatre geeky types. I had no doubt that people that went there gained valuable knowledge. It is also very close to Univ. of Central Florida in Orlando. I ended up going to Florida State, but like I said, in my opinion, I think it is a good college, just make sure you can't get the same education at a state university and get financial aid. Research what state schools offer and if it is something that only fullsail really offers then it might be worth what you pay.
