  1. Hey I wanted to share this little gem with you. If you visit dialup people which hasn't updated their winodws install, you might wanna bring this with you. http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details...;displaylang=en It's the novermber xp/2003 updates in serveral languages, covering KB923980 KB922760 KB920213 KB923789 KB924270 KB927977 and KB927978.

  4. Hello 3 tings: I have a light grey (almost white) room. I need colours. No, repainting is not an option. So, the solution is to get a painting.

  9. Hello I have a Western Digital SATA-150 200 Gig harddrive which has read errors. I would like to blank the drive before I send it to replacement, because I have some sensitive documents there.

The WD diagnostics tools refuse to run based on the S.M.A.R.T. readings (read error, replaceable sectors is above the limits). DBAN refuses to run because the S.M.A.R.T. says the drive's failing.
