What are you yelling about? That statement makes no sense at all! I though you were a native English speaker.

Sorry buddy,im not yelling...

I meant to say "I figured all spammers come from the USA"

We are always reading about things we should do,without really questioning whether we need to be doing them in the first place.

Well several of those things listed DO IN FACT help things!

Cleaning Prefetch files IS ALWAYS A BIG HELP IF YOUR ON XP,ETC that uses Prefetch!!

And cleaning your registry is a big help also.. (The cleaner your reg is OF UN-NEEDED things,the faster response you will notice (Its like keeping your dresser drawers neat and in order))

I do agree with this on the page

"Disabling Shadow Copy/System Restore Improves Performance"

IT IS STUPID TO DISABLE THIS...YOU SHOULD ALWAYS HAVE @ LEAST 1 BACKUP IN CASE YOU NEED IT!

I don't know anything about this developer, but it's funny how their own homepage looks like a mishmash of crap all slapped together at the last minute, in one big long run-on stream with hardly a concern ot organization or presentation....

Well I dont wanna make anyone on the staff mad at me but WEB DESIGN HAS GONE TO CRAP LIKE EVERYTHING ELSE TODAY IN THE WORLD :(

I dont understand why people are satisfied with garbage!!

For example look @ this and tell me which one you think looks nicer

1) www.globaltuners.com < (THIS IS THE DESIGN THEY JUST CHANGED TO)

2) http://new.globaltuners.com < (THIS IS THE ORIGINAL DESIGN)


I THINK #1 IS COMPLETE CRAP AND I DONT UNDERSTAND HOW THEY CAN BE SATISFIED WITH THAT!! (I even posted a thread there about it)

MOUNT WASHINGTON, Pa. -- Authorities are investigating an unusual break-in at a home on Mount Washington that happened early Wednesday morning.

Michael Karanja Kamau, 33, of Cranberry Township, is accused of breaking down two doors and then crawling into bed with Frank Fontana, who lives inside the Sycamore Street home.

Fontana told police he was sleeping and felt someone get into bed with him. Fontana said he thought it was his girlfriend coming to bed, so he called out her name.

That’s when he heard a deep, male voice respond, "No, it’s not.” [more]

:icon_eek:

Ya gotta feel bad for this guy,he had nowhere to go which is really sad....

It all depends on your REP POWER,the higher it is THE MORE YOU WILL AFFECT THE USER...

On one site my rep power is SKY HIGH (249713) and if i give rep,they either get ALL GREEN or ALL RED!! (10 dots) -- So i gotta be very carefull on that site giving neg rep cause i cant do it w/o really hurting someone..

Lotteries are based on RANDOM NUMBERS and it amazes me what it comes up with!

People say the the lottery IS RIGGED so you cant win,but im telling you,IT ISNT :icon_cheesygrin:

I created a program on my commodore64 years ago,a LOTTO program.. It randomizes and picks up to 10 numbers from 1 to 80 and you have you enter which #'s you want....... It amazes me how many times i see consecutive numbers come up!! (61,62,63,64,65,66 came up one time)

I DIDNT RIG ANYTHING!!!!! :icon_cheesygrin: :icon_cheesygrin:

You wouldnt ever choose a string like that (And if you did,they probably wouldnt come up :D)


The mystery of randomization!

Nothing wrong with dates!!

This is a GOOD LINK,i dont care if it was posted in 1999 -- I am glad i came across this interesting thread :)

You people that get all bent out of shape over a date need to worry about things that really matter. (People all over the internet)

Dates mean NOTHING!!! (The link is still good regardless (If it is still valid which in case im glad it was))
