Antje:  Glad that you have a smart son  

diogenysos:thank you I may borrow a pair and try that As long as the thunder isn't a warning that my computer is about to explode I'm not too worried.

Antje: Pretty much any USB wireless adapter should work. My preference is Linksys devices, but there are several that are good.

does anybody know about the above........trying to update this anti virus protection and get the following message.

"A.Bin" File missing.......what is it and how can I fix it.

It wont let me un-install the AVG prog. at all either.

Have done system restore back about a week ago, again nothing.

Have tried to reload AVG over the top of the other one and it won't let me do that either.


any help please.

Bernice: Though i have never had the problem and i use AVG, it looks like many have

MadMonkey: ta very much :(

Antje, glad it worked for you.

hi,

i need a cable from any pda to rs232

we used to use a hp/compaq ipaq pda with the following cable: http://www.pdashop.nl/product-gallery/11573/0

these pda's arent available anymore though .. so we need to switch ...

the software we use on the pda's (written by me so i could change it a bit) uses com1 (rs232 port)

the current pda's seem to use mini usb ... so i am now looking for a mini usb to rs232 converter .. which i cant find :(

i can find a lot of usb to rs232 converters (which i use in another project without any problems) ... but i couldnt find a pda with plain usb on it yet .. and i am not sure wether the driver for these usb-rs232 converter will work on windows mobile

does anyone have any ideas ?

Is anyone familiar with this site: http://registrycleanerhelp.org/7fjw/

Is it safe to download a registry cleaner from there?
Thanks for your input!

Binabik: I have not tried that one BUT i can tell you that CCleaner (used to be Crap Cleaner lol) is probably the best Free Disk (and Registry) Cleaner on the web

Another i have is Wise Registry Cleaner, but that is Shareware

MadMonkey: Thank you MM!

not sure ift his is the right place to post this...but I was wondering if anyone knew of anysites,aside from youtube that you can post your own video clips...the thing I was looking for was something more along the lines of me having to invite you to look at it...on you tube anyone can look at it.Not that it is anything bad,lol

wetware: oh! brilliant! thank you!! now I have to read HOW to uplaod the videos,hehehe

anastasia: my space also allows you to set up as private or open

Google has launched a Shock New Web Browser

Anyone come into contact with it yet ?

wetware: Yeah, looked at that earlier

Still waiting for the release, i have 6 different pages on Firefox Update Scanner, so hopefully i will get it as soon as it comes out, which is today sometime

go...

http://www.google.com/chrome

OK, I've been using it for about 5 minutes now - time for a review.

It installs very quickly.

All the sites seems to load very quickly.

I tried to go to http://www.dialygammon.com/ - which is of course misspelled - and it gave me a very nice error with the suggestion to the correct place!

I'm only had 5 minutes with it so far.... but so far, I'm impressed.

At BrainKing, I'm finding it quicker than IE7 (no surprise), but slower than Firefox.

Other notes: 404 error from Chrome's primary "Help" page...not good.

Imported IE7 bookmarks were resorted alphabetically by Chrome--not good; and I haven't found out how to arrange them as I'd like.

OK, now I've been using it for about 20 minutes, time for a second review.

(some of these might be answered by different settings which I have not seen yet)

When opening new tabs - sometimes it will open at the far right (like Firefox), sometimes it will open just to the right of the open tab (like IE). One or the other would be OK - but not both. (prefer to always open to the far right like Firefox)

Already found one site where the pluggin is not available - http://fallingsandgame.com/sand/sand1.html (of course this will probable work in time)

UGH - wow, a lot of sites have ads that I never use to see.... since I used AdBlocker Plus for Firefox.... again something that will probable come in time to fix.

As for wetware issues - I haven't seen it any slower. I have a couple of my own websites which takes a bit of time to load - and seemed to load about as quickly as firefox does it. I use bookmarks rarely, so that is not an issue for me. (but sure there will be a bookmark plug-in that will appear soon.)

AND GUESS WHAT - I can easily drag and make this input box bigger and smaller with no extra plug-in's installed. COOL!!!!!

Well i have to say, i am impressed by its general speed.

For me its faster than I.E. , Safari, and even Firefox, but then i do have over 40 Extensions on my Firefox lol

Brainking is not much different, though other pages i have tried with not as much information on (BugCafe etc...) are much faster.

Facebook, is fast for me on Chrome, so that must be a bonus as Facebook is getting quite popular now.

As wetware it does not appear as versatile as any of the other Main browsers, but i guess that will improve in time.

AND love the Resize Textarea lol

coan.net: Well, major problem here lol.

On Facebook, when you try to pick up a points disk, it will not

It registers the addy (on the taskbar) so it is seeing it, but when you try to collect it, it does nothing

MadMonkey: yea... I'm already back to using FireFox for now (since I don't like to see all the Ads)

Google Chrome will take a little time to get all the bugs worked out... well it is still in "Beta" so that should be expected I guess. (I normally don't try Bata software for that reason.... but I wanted to try this one.)

MadMonkey: another problem when trying to access my hotmail emal

brings up this
Upgrade your web browser
We recommend that you upgrade your web browser so you can get the most out of Windows Live Hotmail. Upgrading should only take a few minutes. To get started, choose one of the browsers below:
Microsoft Internet Explorer
Mozilla Firefox
Apple Safari
If you don’t want to upgrade right now you can still continue to Windows Live Hotmail, but some parts of it may not work and it may not be displayed properly.

Snoopy: But that shouldn't really be a problem - it's just that Hotmail isn't aware of Chrome and doesn't recognize it, so it expects it to be out of date, while it is brand new.

hotmail works fine in chrome .. it just gives a warning in which you can click to continue

i am using the old fashioned version of hotmail though, so i am not sure about the new version

facebook has quite some troubles with chrome .. much of the actions in the 'applications' in facebook dont work

one weird thing : when i use my scrollwheel it works fine on some pages (for example the search results of google) but backwards on other sites (like brainking and hotmail) .. when i scroll up my page goes down and vice versa :)

Gordon Shumway: i know it isnt a problem
i just thought it funny telling me to upgrade my broowser

Crome doesn't let you use rich text editor (same I find with Safari) the top area is blank, just has 'switch to plain text editor'

Snoopy:

My niece video taped (well,mini dvd) my trail with my dog for me...when we played the mini dvd back,it will freeze up on certain spots of the dvd..is there ANY way at all to fix this!!?? I wouldn't be overly concerned but this is a trial dvd of us!! We have tried it in all our dvd players and I just now tried it in the puter and the same thing happens,almost like dead spots..ANY help would be welcomed!!

we have an fx3 plc (mitsubishi) with a program in it
we want to review the code in the plc with the code on our server
(there is some confusion about the running version) but the fx3 plc is keyword protected

there is a program called keyread which can read the keycode from the plc
http://idownload.ws/Keyread/view.html

but when i try to download the program it only gives me a .zip file with a .doc file telling me that its not available anymore

i am looking for another mirror where the program might still be available, but i cant find any

does anyone know this program and where i can still download it ?
or does anyone maybe have this program ?

Hrqls:just tried several sites and they all give me the same .zip ,-(

and 2 p2p-progs do not have any results either

diogenysos: thanks for trying ... i tried some more sites (less legal ones as well) but no other results :(

we will do an 'all clear' which will remove the passwords and then upload the program from our server (and hope its the same as the one which was running, or at least with not too many differences :))

A question for those smart computer people; my computer shuts down on me after I try to play any game using flash...  any thoughts on why this is happening?  (This is the only reason why it shuts down...  I have narrowed it down to that.)

Thanks,

Phil (rednaz23)

rednaz23: do you use the full prog or just the flash-plugin?  -

how about re-installing the program?

have you tried to install the same file on another computer?

diogenysos:  I think I got it fixed; I un-installed just about everything on my computer and re-installed the few items that I actually wanted...  somehow it has worked for me so far...

What ever happened to Faster Fox? Apparently it's not compatible with the Firefox 3.0 version? It did seem to make a bit of a difference...

Binabik: From what i can gather, most of the tweaks that Fasterfox used to make to about:config are built into FF 3.0, though i do not know if they all are. You can still make changes yourself to config, but its not wise to unless you know what you are changing

I will try to find out more about Fasterfox though, i know that most of the Add-ons that are not yet compatible with FF 3.0 is because the people that wrote them seem to have vanished lol

MadMonkey: They vanished? Hmmm, maybe Fasterfox was a wee bit too fast.....

Binabik: I have looked into it

I do not know if the writers of Fasterfox are working on a update or new version, BUT the reason the old version does not work is very simple.

The .rdf file that is part of the .xpi file that is the actual extension contains the lowest and highest versions of Firefox that the particular extension has been tested on and will run in. In other words the present Fasterfox download will not run in anything past Firefox 2.*.* unless you yourself change the .rdf file.

Let me have a play, and i will see if i can do it

MadMonkey: Thanks MM, but the file explanation is like the Xfiles to me.....

Binabik: Leave it with me, need something to do, and i will just send you the file to install when i have changed it

Binabik: Woooohooo who is a clever monkey

Send me your email, and i will send you the new (monkey_version) of Fasterfox file, with a simple explanation on how to Install it

Needed a router... as we bought a laptop. So I went 'window shopping' on PC World to see what was on offer (seeing as there is a store nearby) and the specs of each item.

To be sure I was getting what I needed I phoned the number in the book (a national call centre) and ask a few questions. It was what I needed so I asked if the local store had one in stock, and they did.

... She reserved it for me, but at the internet price!! A saving of £30

Tried it again today on some DDR ram for the desktop, asked about one item and if the local store had it in stock.. they didn't. So I checked my next choice.. they did and the man would reserve it for me if I liked. I asked if I had to pay the internet or shop price (being a £15 difference) and got told they would only charge me the internet price.

... That's £45 I've saved using this method!!

Give it a try... some feedback on your success or not would be appreciated.
