Andersp: I created a site at Geocities back before Yahoo owned them (1996). After a crash one time I lost my password to my geocities account. I can't get back in. i emailed them 4 times and never got a reply. SO my very first site I made in 1996 still sits, unedited and I cant access it. How frusterating. They are full of FAQ's but they will not reply to your email queries.

Rose: My oldest (free) account is from that time too (1997 i think). I wonder how long it will take to be "free", they say "just go to change my account if you want to finish it"...will be another struggle for sure :(

Andersp: That doesnt work either lol I did that.. I created a new username etc.. I still cannot access the original website. Buggers! hahaha

Andersp:

Great hosting at a great price. I have all my web pages here and have never had a problem.

http://tncproweb.com

If we are talking about hosting, I have used http://www.powweb.com for a few years, and LOVE it. They keep adding more space, more bandwidth, more of all kinds of stuff all at the same price. (current promotion is 6/14 months free if you buy a year/2 years)

Get 12 gig of space (WHICH IS TONS), and 300 GB bandwidth a month (10 gigs a day) (Which again is TONS) Cost $7.77 a month - but discounted if you buy a year or 2 years.

.... in case anyone was wondering. :-)

I use http://www.seanic.net

$46.99 per year and your domain name is free.

Ive been with them for 5 yrs? and the price has always been the same.

I also use geocities for my personal site, the other one is my graphics site:)

Now that lost passwords were mentioned, I have been unable to reach ICQ for the last few YEARS regarding the password to my ICQ account. I had probably registered it from an academic address that stopped working and they are now unable to help me. I didn't want to get a new number, as the number I had was pretty nice and short, not like 9494859495 after its popularity shot up!

Any ideas? I mean, I have disowned them ages ago, but if there's a way to get back my account...?

lately i see this hoax (fake virus alert) appear on a lot of boards and even got it in one of my mailboxes.

its a hoax so please dont send it on

Hrqls: I'll drink to that.

AOL has a new "TV Station" which you can watch on-line for free (High speed internet connection needed) - Looks like they have 14 "channels" which different shows on. Only quickly glanced at it, but felt I would share it with others.

http://television.aol.com/in2tv/lol_tv

The In2TV channel on AOL.com was announced in November and began yesterday with 30 series, including "Growing Pains" and "Eight is Enough." The network will also offer games, polls and other interactive features.

The shows are free to anyone with high-speed Internet access. The network is supported through advertising.

Eventually the company plans to offer more than 100 series and at least 300 episodes per month to lure broadband users to the AOL Web site.

The company says the shows will be available exclusively online and not in reruns on TV.

BerniceC: "Britain 13mbps"... there's something very wrong there! You can't get more than 2megaBITS per second downstream normally and 256kBITS upstream. (Normally = phone line as Britain has a telephonic monopoly)

Can someone help me find an IP addy for an email? keep getting "no information found" and I dont know why?

Czuch Chuckers:set up 2 emails and mail yourself a message both ways and it will come up through hotmail.

Mike:o)

BIG BAD WOLF:You can get alot as you mentioned,even HD movies new releases,previews and also burnable to disk i pods too through (quick time),it's amazing the first months free then there a charge of 24.99 a month but well worth it.I'm on ultra speed not sure if that makes a difference with compatibility though.

There's a new computer coming out shortly from microsoft which there calling MPC's hand held with a 7 inch screen and even a newer advanced verson of windows with a touch screen keyboard and everything a PC is capable of and more in most ways,should be on the market in a few months ranging from $600 to $1000 that would be in Canadian funds which would make it around $480 to $800 in US Dollars.

Czuch Chuckers: Are you trying to find an addy thats on an email or the addy the email came from?

bitwisexor: i have no idea if it is right ora wrong....just copied it from our local paper...speak to the computer editor LOLOL

Czuch Chuckers: is the info required on an email you have received????
if so highlight the message in your inbox and right click and select properties, and then select "details"....all info is there...well it is on "OE"

Is there anyway to copy all of my email addys from my webtv mail to a new account on a computer?

Thanks Bernice I will try that!

Does anyone here have a brother MFC-580, MFC-590, MFC 890, MFC-5100J or MFC5200J?

I'v got about 7 compatable ink cartridges that I can't use any more because my machine got a fatal fault

**edited to add: these are freebies, I'm not selling them. They're in my way and I'd sooner send them to someone who can use them.

OK, now I'm completely stuck! I've just tried Virtual PC 2004, installing the ol' MSDOS 6.22 from my original floppies and the necessary CDROM drivers, as well as the mandatory SB16 line in AUTOEXEC.BAT... but the game just installs, happily playing the test guitar riff for sound setup and the intro video for video setup. When I run it, I get the black screen forever...

HEEELP!!! I am seriously considering rearranging my real hard disk partitions so that I have MSDOS bootable just for this game!!!

BIG BAD WOLF: ohhhh,Lefemme Nikita!!!!!! I LOVED that show!!!! I bookmarked the page,thank you for sharing!!

Any suggestion of a program to convert videos from Quick time.mov to .mpeg. The cheaper the better...free = best :)

Andersp: Google it or go to www.snapfiles.com, freeware section. All the freeware you can shake a stick at, reviewed and rated.

OK how about this one... I've also got some cartridges for Epson C42/C44/C46. Anyone have one of those printers?

harley: I have a feeling that not so many are reading this board :)....I (we) have only HP printers

White Tower:..Thanks ive checked that site, a lot of free "candy" there but i couldnt find what i needed :(

Andersp: Yeah I posted at HOME today too. I'm sure someone must have Epson & Brother printers.

harley: Try E-bay :)

Andersp: I'd rather give them to someone from here if they can use them. But I'll keep it in mind, thanks :O)

do Anyone know that how can to enable SSE2 instructions on AMD athlon xp processors?
I want to run adobe encore dvd 2 on my pc , but my cpu is Athlon xp , what is the solution?

I found a home for the epson cartridges :o)

ali: SSE2 emulator, but there WILL be a (proboably significant) performance decrease. Can't find any SSE2 emulator's, sorry.

bitwisexor: Thanks a lot.But how can i find that?what is your suggestion?

HELP!!!! I cannot for the life of me get this thing to work! I even went as far as to let it auto set up for me..I keep getting a message that says "The message could not be sent,you do not have any accounts configured for sending e-mail,please varify your account configuration"
I do have an account,the stupid thing set it up for me!!!

anastasia:When you set it up on auto set up did you add your incoming and outgoing mail server settings?

Rose: by that do you mean the pop.yahoo.whatever in the heck else itsays,lol...yeah,that was done.

anastasia: if its for yahoo mail, you have to pay yahoo to use pop mail.

Eriisa: Really? YOu cant just set it up as html mail in Outlook like you can do with hotmail?

nope. yahoo charges premium prices for that. Greedy so-and-so's.

Eriisa: I HAVE yahoo though...I have to pay them MORE then what I do now???

anastasia: To use pop mail with Yahoo, you have to get their premium services.

I have a yahoo account that I keep cause its 10 years old. But I use Gmail for my pop mail. Its a new account so I don't get any spam and it works great. Gmail also has unlimited storage.

If you like, I can email you an invite to use gmail.

Any one online a lot from 6pm EST 'til all hours of the night?
Ok It isn't a full requirment to be on that long. We are looking for a co-mod to help moderate this board. I am on nearly every day from 8AM to 7 or 8 PM AST (The benefits of working from home and being your own boss is you can have BK open all day)
Anyone who is really in to computers and would like to help Co mod this board give us a shout.

*typo edit

Rose: Rose must think she's royalty. She called herself 'us'


*running away VERY fast*

Rose: I'd like to, but 6pm EST is midnight CET ;)

Eriisa: I have an option to use hotmail or msn mail...would that help or not?

possibly. You would have to check with hotmail and msn mail to see if they offer pop service. I don't use them.

If its an old hotmail account that would work but new hotmail accounts made in the last 18 months (approx) wont support outlook unless its an upgraded account .

I just got a copy of Frontpage. Anyone familiar with it? Powerpoint? ;)

Groucho: never used it but have seen some of the work that has been done come thru as pps. on email...absolutely beautiful and/or clever

BerniceC: I'm the new computer tech teacher at school and need to learn these programs. Should be easy but I have to dig into them. No manual but there's plenty on the net.

Groucho: ??what happened to the art...teaching the young'ns how to paint? or is this an added bonus lOLOL
