 | This is probably a very stupid question, but is it possible to build your own Apple? I've been a Windows guy all my life, and of course many Windows users build their own PCs. However, I've never heard anything about one building an Apple... I ask because this concept might …  |
| | I don't have any experience, but is it possible that ya [i]can't[/i] send pics/music? And what total have ya tried sending? |
 | First off, I want to say that I will not partake in this discussion, as it will only breed a flame war. However, I will point out some fallacies brought out on both sides. (going in chronological order) [quote=christina>you]Evolution - humans evolved from lower life forms and turned into what …  |
 | Good find Jado! I've been watching this thread, not understanding the problem till now. :) |
| | The only thing I can think of is have you tried using another USB port? |
| | Well it could be a vareity of things, but it strongly appears to by a spyware. However, we're unsure which one it is yet, especially since a few spywares dodge HJT. Therefore, to fix this, we're gonna have ya download Ewido (link above), to have it scan for other things. …  |
| | [quote]Why do you need the AOL software anyway?[/quote] Most people use AOL as a browser. And although ya can check email at AOL.com, most use AOL software to check it. (this is assuming you're using broadband ;)) |
| | Several things to check out. 1) Any chance your mouse is faulty? 2) You might want to check out your mouse's settings and be sure double-clicking is possible. Oftentimes, variables such as speed and such make it nearly impossilbe to do. Thanks. |
| | Dude, I hate to say it, but I wouldnt doubt one bit that ya have a virus/extreme malware. I'd reccomend that ya download HijackThis (a diagnostic software), rewrite the problem in a thread in the 'Virus, Spywares, and other nasties' category, and post a HijackThis log into your thread. Help … |
| | [quote]I have tried to unistall both XP and aol[/quote] Waiit, lemme clarify real fast. You tried to uninstall both AOL and XP? By uninstalling XP did you mean you tried to reformatt? Have you tried accessing the internet on that computer with another browser besides AOL (IE, Firefox, etc)? If …  |

| | -Right, agreed with PCtech. Also, make sure you're inside the correct user. Finally, ya might want to try adding your hard drive as a slave partition on another computer.  |
| | Ummm....we don't do homework for ya guys :-| |
 | Welcome to Daniweb :) Try posting it inside the Windows XP forum. [url]http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/forum10.html[/url] Thanks. |
| | Alrite, mabe I'm wrong, but this seems like spyware. I'd recommend that ya post a new thread in the 'Virus, Spyware, and Other Nasties' thread, along with a HijackThis log. (directions for doing this can be found in the very first thread listed, [url]http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/thread28196.html[/url] ) |
| | Let's try this. Download [url=http://files3.majorgeeks.com/files/387634a1c9e6dad2026967f0a0f844f6/admin/hoster.zip]Hoster[/url] and run the program, allowing it to reset the Hosts file. What this does is replace the Hosts file, which can oftentimes become corrupted, therefore limiting the access to certain sites. Thanks. |
| | [quote]Would it be worth using a restore point from a month or so before this problem surfaced to get back to what we had?[/quote] That's what I would try first, because if this fixes it, then ya don't need to worry about it too much. If this doesn't work, I … |

| | [quote][quote]American firm Jones Soda[/quote][/quote] Not to be defending it or anything, but Jones Sodas are quiiite good. So I have a feeling it's better then it sounds. [quote=sharky_machine]perhaps a Mountain Dew [/quote] Buut, I will stick with Sharky here, Mountain Dew is good. :) |

 | Yes, Mastertech is corrret on this issue. ;) |
| | Re: Nice Smell! Heh, now if that was ME, I'd apply for those handicap signs that allow ya to park closer....  |
| | |
 | If you want, to can just post a nice tutorial in the hardware section, and I can sticky it. |
| | Sniph, if ya can't even log in too much, let's move ya to the dead machines forum (cause, truely, that's what it is ;)) tread moved. |
| | Hmmm ya might. Download HijackThis and post a scan here. Directions for this can be found here: [url]http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/thread28196.html[/url] Thanks. |
 | Simply the fact that Rashakil's icon sorta looks like the baby corpse from the Omen (as in, the newly released movie) heh  |
| | I know what initially drew me was the look of everything. I thought DW looked a whole lot more professional then the other sites I had considered. ...but that's just me. ;) |

| | [quote=jigenz5766]so what is best anti virus?[/quote] Generally, an AntiVirus is a program that scans the computer's hard drive for similar behaviors, per say, of viruses and such.

| | [quote] i don't think it's possible for mp3 players to get viruses[/quote] Actually, I think I've read stuff about iPods having viruses...but thats beside the point. What i think the problem here is a defective part inside the mp3 player. I'd have it sent back... |
| | Are ya able to scan with antivirus? If so, what have ya tried? |
| | [quote=broadcast]Based on what I've seen, I WON'T be buying a new PC. XP (and Windows 2000) are FINE for anything I can think of running or that I need to run...[/quote] Roger that exactly. |
 | Re: ACTs Definititely take the ACT...I personally did FAR better on it compared to the SAT. Tips: 1) BE SURE to bring a snack and water to consume during breaks. 2) Bring a watch, because the proxy place isn't required to provide a clock. 3) Don't freak out during the Science section. …  |

[url]http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/post368478.html#post368478[/url] if there's more to it than that, fair enough and i'm not asking for details; but if this post is the only … |
| | Re: College?! [QUOTE=joshSCH;350096]The average wage in the UK is £133,333 / $267K ??[/QUOTE] Heh with that said though, it's worth mentioning that things over there are [i]much[/i] more expensive. (I don't have data, but can any Brits back me up on this?)  |

| | Chalk up a vote for enabling color. Correct color usage can greatly improve the clarity of a post, especially when one wants the post to appear simple. A good usage of color can often be found in the spyware section. But again, does feedback even matter here anymore? |
| | [quote]theme xp is decent but it has adware.[/quote] Err...are ya sure about that? ;) I didn't think it did. And also, CastleCops rates it as non-spyware. Thanks. |
| | Agreed. However, not filling up on one day will not do any good. All it means is that people will fill up either the day before or day after, causing sales increases on these days. |
| | I would second the MegaUpload site. It works very well.  |
| | |
 | In general, complexity is worth it, until the point where the technology of which the complexity is benefitting does not break the point of ease. (sorry if that doesnt make sense ;))  |

| | [QUOTE=christina>you;359932]He's right. Fascism and communism are two very different things. Many consider Benito Mussolini and Adolf Hilter to be communist. But in fact, they [I]opposed[/I] communism [I]greatly[/I]. They were fascists and they believed in complete dictatorship.[/QUOTE] Exactly correct. Cheers Christina. |
| | Correct. While I agree it's absurd, they're about 99% identical, DNA-wise. :icon_biggrin:  |
The End.
