pauly_1, As other members here have already indicated, your original post ("Why should microsoft didnot do the proper update for Internet explorer.There is lot of problem of explorer") is very vague and does not give us any information that we can use to help you. If you are still having …

Since you said that you've been "given" this router by someone else, have you tried to entirely reset the router back to its default factory settings before assuming that the device itself is defective? A "Factory Reset" is the first thing that I do whenever I "inherit" a network device …

I don't see anything bad in the log either. Given that, I'd suggest going through the following general virus/spyware removal proceedures to see if malicious infections really are part of the problem: You will need to disconnect from the Internet for some of the following, so you'll need to print …

> Get JRT and hopefully it will sort it out. > Post the notepad notes :) > PS: this shoud be on the viruses section Hi Mya:), What blackmiau said above is true- Given the symptoms you've described, it does sound like you have a browser-redirect/browser-hijack infection, and you'll definitely …

"So... be patient and be prepared for some (probably) stupid questions. Hey, I'd rather ask than f*** it up." Ana- there are no "stupid questions" on this site. Just ask us for help before you "f*** it up", OK? That's why we're here. ;-)

Hello Pedro 3, For one thing: If you removed the CPU (and/or RAM modules) from the motherboard, then yes- you will definitely get a different "Beep Code" than the one you originally got. BIOS beep codes relate to the installed hardware, so if you change any of that hardware, you …

Hi ChargrO, Hardware could certainly be at the root of the problem, especially given that you've already done a full reformat/reinstall. On the other hand though- if your Dad installed/reinstalled any programs after you did the full OS reinstall, he might well have reintroduced a software-related problem. If you can, …

It's hard for me to tell because the original post was deleted by the moderators, but regardless... you'll probably get more immediate attention if you start your own …

Wow- that's a *very* old drive! If the sound is really coming from the drive itself rather than from the computer's built-in speaker, my guess it that the sound is caused by the drive's head armature mechanism (or possibly the drive's spindle motor) trying to engage but failing to do …

I can't believe it Dani- I joined this site well over ten years ago- and at that time you were still in school, and your site had less than 5,000 members (I think I'm member #4900 or something like that). I see that you've grown to over 1 Million members …

Hello ARIGAR, Determining the *specific* identity of an Internet user is actually pretty difficult, and in many cases totally impossible. As CimmerianX and heXenDoKtor have already explained, users can hide their true location/identity by using proxies, forged email headers, and other mechanisms. Beyond that- there's also the simple fact that …

"... Can you copy the Program Files folder to another drive and run it from there?" Unfortunately, the answer to that question is usually "no". When you install a program in Windows, the installation process will not only create files under the "Program Files" or "Program File (x86)" folders, but …

Some descripitions of what proxy servers are and do (and yes- they're perfectly legal): [url]http://www.publicproxyservers.com/index.html[/url] [url]http://www.webopedia.com/TERM/p/proxy_server.html[/url] [url]http://whatis.techtarget.com/definition/0,,sid9_gci212840,00.html[/url] However, if you're just looking to protect one or a few computers on a home or small office network, a proxy server is probably overkill. Additionally- if you aren't very familiar with computer/network …
