Steve TK, you have one nasty called Vundo on your system. It'll require a special fix to take care of beyond using Hijackthis. The suggestion to post at Tom Coyote is a good idea, and in fact, that is another forum I frequent. I am one of the people there who can answer Hijackthis logs, my...
I actually have driven on US 6 when I was driving from the East Coast to California. Like you, I looked on the map and saw 6 looks like a short cut, but wondered if it would be better to stay on I 70 to I 15 north to Provo. Well, when I got near the exit for for US 6, there was a sign that said...
That's just about guaranteed to be a false positive. I have that file too. It's located in C:WINDOWSsystem32QuickTime folder and is 401KB It deals with the various file extensions that Quicktime works with, .mov, .avi, etc. You can upload the file to Jotti scan to get a second opinion. I've...
Mike Lin's Startup Control panel is another good, free program that may be easier to use for less experienced Windows users. http://www.mlin.net/StartupCPL.shtml
If Comcast in the Bay Area is anything like here in Sacramento or up in Seattle, about 90% or more of the installs are done by contractors. So the Comcast person might well not have been able to directly contact the installer, but only the contractor' dispatch. That could explain the long wait...
Nelson, alot happens in the last 30 minutes, so you are still in the dark about several things. While you may have spoiled some thigs by watching the last three eps, the big suprises are in the part you didn't see. I would avoid anything related to BSG until you can watch the rest of the 1st...
The FCC just ruled a few days ago that VOIP must provide local 911 for your area and gave the providers 4 months to comply. I wonder though if it will be as good as a land line 911. I hate how everything has a contract now.Especially for services that you don't even know if they will work...
I know exactly what you mean. I test out map sites on places I know and they always seem to start you out and end you in the least desirable place that is the last place anyone who doesn't live there should be. Still, Google Maps is looking pretty good.
Here's teo free programs that will help prevent spyware from being installed on your new PC. Much better to stop it before it can install :) SpywareBlaster # Prevent the installation of ActiveX-based spyware, adware, browser hijackers, dialers, and other potentially unwanted pests. # Block...
It is important to note that MS Antispyware is a BETA program that is still undergoing testing. There are some false positives that it has come up with so far, including one that will break your internet connection. If you have webhancer adware and the MS Atispyremoves it, it won't do it the...
You can't do much about the USB you have now, because it is like you say about the motherboard. However, you can buy a USB 2 PCI card and install that to get USB 2. They also have cards for firewire and ones that hav both USB @ and firewire.
If it is still under warranty look into that, otherwise just buy a new one. The cost of a new magnetron will be the same or more than buying a entire new microwave.
Well, there is the right of way for utilities, but even they have to look for underground objects when digging, at least here they do. If they didn't even give you notice and dug and broke your spinkler system, then you have groundsto complain and if necessary, sue them. It may not be what you...
You would think so, but the whole area of spyware is still new and they're aren't any real legal precedents to go by. For example, there is no legal definition of "spyware" that I'm aware of. Another thing is that most users "agree" to the installation of it by clicking yes on the EULA (End...
Just a warning about using Hijack This!. It lists alot of settings in your computer where browser hijacks and malware can be, but not everything listed is bad or should be deleted. It's a tool that provides information to someone experienced to recommend what needs to be done to remove...
You're not the only one. I couldn't believe that it was the same person at first, and never would have realized it until someone else told me. I was like "no way".
Could be, but all you have to do is get a new splitter and plug everything into to that. If it's done right, there should be a filter at the tap to block out the TV channels.
If it looked like the picture in the previous post, you could just screw it off by hand, but he said he couldn't. That means it's a security teminator which you need a special tool to remove. I supose that whoever put the splitter there did so because your cable signal was too strong for the...
This is good news. I was hoping that they would continue it. Hopefully, even if it doesn't go to far, they can wrap up the story and not have it end in a cliffhanger ending like the mini series did.
Well, unless the cable box has more than one tuner, then the best you can get is the analog channels with PiP. As far as I know, no cable box has duel tuners that is used by any cable company. You can use 2 cable boxes, but they both will respond when you use the remote which changes channels on...
I talked with my parents who live in midtown Newport News and they had no power or phone, so they called my on their cell. No major damage around where they were so they got through pretty well. I looked around the Daily Press and Va Pilot websites at some of the pictures of the damage, lots of...
