Mousetrap: If I can remember it right, I went to My Pictures on the main page right before I click on start. I selected a pic & chopped it to a smaller size. I then saved it. I sent an e-mail to myself w/ the pic attached. I either would get the whole pic in the e-mail or get an attachment right under the subject line. Just can't get it into a jpeg or something else that would go into the e-mail where you just click on the bottom to get the pic. That is 1 way I tried doing this but I forgot the other ways I tried sorry

Mystery Man: I have a Dell Demension E520. When I had to reboot my comp, I had to re-sign up for MSN & lost everything that I already had saved an such. I didn't have a problem when I was rebooting using System Restore but did lose info that I did save prior to the rebooting to an earlier date tho..sorry if I didn't answer your question

Subiectul: System Restore effects MSN Sign-in Page
Can anyone assist me with this problem?
I have eMachine PC w/Windows XP & MSN-9.5 premium. I lost some folder emails from 11/15/06 to 3/15/07 and missing 2 or 3 folders I created in January. I pick a good date to do the restore, all went well, but after reboot and tried to bring up my MSN sign-in page, it was a bluish/green "blank" page. So I un-do and repeated restore with a different date and still, a blank sign-in page for MSN. I do not know if restore helped to retrieve the missing items for I could not sign in after the restore.
My question is; How do I bring back my MSN sign-in page once I restore the system..?

Subiectul: Firefox 3 - Alpha2 - Review
15 Feb, 2007 Lockergnome General, Blogroll, Technology

Being curious by nature, I thought I would take a look at Firefox 3, the next release of Firefox which is in Alpha stage 2, and not ready for public testing. But since I have a test box to throw the latest Firefox on, I thought why not.

Note: Alpha release are development software and are not meant for the general public to play with. So wait until the software is released to beta.

Well as the website states, the interface is Firefox 2. And nothing more, nothing less so far. But there is one thing I noticed right away. Whether it is planned or not, this browser is fast. Very,very fast. And during use, the memory problem that has effected other versions seems to have been tamed. I opened multiple versions of Firefox 3 and and multiple tabs and there was not that HUGE memory burst and cpu thrashing that I have seen before.

It seems that the developers are making some efforts to improving the overall performance of Firefox 3, and not just some cosmetic changes. Good job Mozilla team.

I’m looking forward to the beta of Firefox 3.
Estimated release date of final version - end of 2007. Bring it on

For those that keep up to date about things, just a very little article about Firefox.
Also, the site lockergnome is a great one to join (for free), you get a newsletter most days full of computer/internet stuff

Subiectul: scrolling in Firefox
I keep hearing how great Firefox is, but I'm finding it to be very frustrating because it doesn't want to scroll! When I try to scroll down a page, it lags and sticks. The scroll bar on the touchpad on my laptop won't even work so I have to actually move my cursor to the right of the screen and click to scroll, which takes a lot of time when you're not using a mouse. Anyone know if this is fixable?

Subiectul: Re: FireFox And a question
Rose: I installed FasterFox and am not experiencing those problems.

Personally, I don't find FasterFox any faster, though. LOL.. Oh well..

Anyone: This may not be the board for this question, but maybe it is.. All of a sudden, in rich text editor, my scissors, copy and paste icons are dimmed out, as though they are not available to use. It's been like this for a few days now. Also, I have a special formatted good luck message that I have saved in notepad. It just has a couple smileys and colored letters. I used to just go to notepad, click edit on the entry, copy it, and paste it right into my game message. Ever since these icons have been "dimmed", when I copy the message, and then paste it (using ctrl+c, and ctrl+v since the appropriate icons aren't working), When it pastes, the smileys are there, but not moving, and when I submit the move, it shows up in the game as "<img> Good Luck <img>" (The letters are colored the way I wanted, but the smileys show up as <img>") Can anyone tell me why? It worked fine for quite a while, then suddenly changed. Have I changed something on my computer that might have caused this????

Subiectul: Re: FireFox
Rose: You're right, sorry. I was talking about the FF Preferences and where they are located inside FF on different operating systems. If you use FF in Windows, they are located in "tools", if you use it on Linux they're located in "edit".

And in the preferences the privacy settings are located.

But this all doesn't seem to be the issue anyway ;)

Subiectul: Re: FireFox
Rose: I have FasterFox installed on my computer at home, and if no one else answers before then, I will take a look at those settings and see if anything jumps out at me. Probable some kind of "performace" thing FasterFox does is clearing that data out - to help make firefox "faster".

When I loaded it at home, I played with the setting but did not find any difference... which is why I haven't loaded it on the computer that I'm using now.

But if FasterFox is the only change - most likely that is the cause of the problem.

Gordon Shumway& BBW:  I looked at the privacy tab on FF and the clear private data is not check boxed. I never had this problem before this week ( The only change I made this week was I installed Fasterfox so wonder if there is a correlation there?)
 Gordon you must mean in FF and IE, NOT windows to check the tools , privacy I am assuming. There is no tools, privacy with in WIndows XP tools area.

Subiectul: Re: FireFox
Rose: Check your preferences (on Windows they are under the tools menu, I think. On Linux they're under the edit menu) -> Privacy. If there is a checkmark before "Always clear my private data when I exit Firefox", you might uncheck it, or click on Settings and uncheck "saved passwords" and "cookies". The former checked means that the passwords from the password manager are deleted, and the latter means that the information Brainking stores in a cookie, are also deleted. If you have checked "remember user name and password" on the login page, this information is stored in a cookie.

For the style switching: There are three links: "To simple style", "simple" and "castle". The latter two change the style but don't save it, only the first option saves it in the database.

16. Martie 2007, 14:00:31

Subiectul: Re: FireFox
Rose: Do you have some privacy software or something installed that clears the cache or Cookies?

Or for example, in FireFox - Tools, Options - Privacy Tab - there is an option to "Always clear my private data when I close FireFox"..... make sure that is not checked.

Everytime I come back from a boot or even from shutting down FF all my passwords are gone. Anyone had this occur in FF before and know how to make the change so I dont have to put my password in here an every where else online every time I go to the sites that need them? Im at a loss.. Even the settings here arent being kept for the new site look. I switch to simple view from castle but every time it goes back to castle mode

Discussion Board Tip: Another thing I changed was on the discussion boards, I changed the "Messages per page" down to a lower number.

I had it at 100 for the longest time, but recently put it down to 50 which should speed things up also. (might even go down lower since I normally catch all boards before too many post are put on it.)
