| | Not sure if it works the same in Windows as in Linux, but the .php file must have executable permissions. |
| | As you can see, the main forum and topic pages on this site display Google Ads. These text-based ads spider the site they're on and display relevant links targeted to the content of the current page.

| | Not quite sure what that is related to. I would post a HijackThis log in the Viruses and Spyware forum just to make sure you don't have anything nasty going on. Also, could you click the Start menu for me and click on Run. Then, type in "msconfig" and click …  |
| | I went to the compaq website and found that the compaq 700 series are notebooks, is this correct? I take it it's an onboard soundcard then, correct? Often, 2000/XP drivers are the same for sound cards, etc. |
| | I have the same problem with a mouse whenever I connect it to the keyboard's USB port. It doesn't happen quite often for me though - usually only after a period of inactivity. |

| | Certain graphical elements in this forum (such as user's avatars and file attachments) are actually stored in the database instead of in the file system. Is there a way to back these up along with the database? For example, when I make an sql dump file, it obviously doesn't export … |

| | I think that if you plan on possibly implementing this policy in the future, it is best to never allow advertising to begin with. There is nothing that frustrates frequent forum members more than change of policies. |
 | Re: Purple + Blue Hi there. This is exactly the kind of feedback I like to hear :) The reason why this was purposely done was for ease of navigation, to associate the site's navigation with the color purple.

| | Agreed. (And is my vote the only one that matters? just kidding!) I think the Geek's Lounge is meant for off-topic chat such as this. :) |
 | Re: New badges Thanks mikeandike! You're right, OurNation, they've gone through a few incarnations over the past day. :) I actually don't want to post them on the public profile because the idea is for only the badge owner to get their certificate. :) In addition, everything displayed on the certificate is shown … |
