Fantastic! Which part of my advice was it that helped?

If that was true, then it would be a bad router.
I doubt he needed broadband, but i do think he did a wizzard which asked him for details about his broadband connection.. to which he assumed he needed an internet connection.

I know this is a bit late, but a mention on spam... most filters will kill email sent from home, or non business servers, simply because they are the largest senders of spam. (Thats not to say that there arnt a few servers on 100mbit connections pumping it too).
It is a good strategy to have it provided by somebody professionaly, great *cough*kind of*cough* panels exist for making it easier to setup servers, like cpanel, but cost a fortune but can lend to bad administrating habbits.
A hardware firewall, well its just a box than runs a program and is dedicated to firewall-ing like iccaros said, okay some filter better than others but if your being hit with a 1gbit ddos on a 10 mbit home connection you just wasted your money.
Honkey, id assume iccaros is just a customer, and wants his hand back, go to http://www.doteasy.com/ and talk to them.

IF you really need Microsoft Works, just pm me, i have a copy that came with my laptop and never installed it. Ill be happy to post it to you for absoultly nothing just to get rid of it.
Its a good point that she might need specialist software, but i would think thats only for the publishing modual and will probably spend her time using ms word, or works for writing essays and 99% of the content for her course.

comments are good on that product, will it cool down the vga, it should as thats what its made for, question is can you sacrifice 1 slot for it?

That is a very nice, and very neat piece of kit,
From what i can tell, is that the 80mm fan sits on the case, the radiator mounts on that 80mm fan, and then the heatskink of course sits on the cpu, so you still have an 80mm fan for cooling. A bit like how a car's radiator works.
If you were parinoid about noise, you could invest in an ultra quiet 80mm fan too, to replace the one that comes in that kit.

so i do think it should fit, but doesnt newegg have a 30 day return policy if it doesnt fit?

Being an IT student and working for a big IT company, id have to disagree with you. $1200cnd wont buy you a decent high end server, nor will it buy you a cisco switch for $120,000usd. Yes you can make a gaming machine for 1200cnd, but a $1200 cnd wont even buy you a high end LCD/TFT monitor so no you cant make a high end gaming machine, a midrange gaming machine yes.
Pierce
1200cnd isnt much, i spent $4200 usd on a laptop.. that plays games, i get about 80fps in counter-stike source, so 1200 is a start

you also forgot
Speakers

Keyboards
Mouse http://www.atruereview.com/diamondback/index.php --top of the range mouse $60
Forget unbuffered memory, thats a load of crap you need registered buffered memory to go with that graphics card.
and you need a case with a powersupply....
You can make a gaming machine for 1200, but your not going to get a lot of quality for that.
Pierce
Thanks.
I'd love to spend that much on just a PC, but I wouldnt. I'd have to disagree, you can get a good quality machine with 1200. I know about 7 guys with nice machines, and they only spent around 1200. All IT guys too.

Seen that one ages ago, living in a fishing community you dont get away from thoes kind of jokes.
Its a good one to know where you are and where you intend to arrive, if the destination is the same as the departure why fly arround the world to get back to where you started.
Always one that makes me laugh.
Pierce

That could be the reason, maybe its because of it being a new edition than the "ripped" one you had, and your pc doesnt like it, anyways play it on your sisters computer with her, im sure shed love your brotherly bonding.

Yes if they too are using the internet at the same time as you.
If they are not, then run your computer for virus and trjoan checks, quite a lot of program hacks are actually sneaky ways of getting into your pc, but im sure youd know that.
If that doesnt show up anything, disconnect your pc, use the laptop, if that too is slow,
Then make sure your wireless is secured.
If it is, try different sites, most sites usualy cant upload that fast anyways, and 1.7mpbs isnt like being nailed to the cross in terms of the pain you suffer from not having the full 3mbps is it...

Okay i know this seems odd, using the online manual, but its the only way i can reference it,
http://www.linksys.com/servlet/Satellite?c...FVisitorWrapper
click "User Guide"
go to pages 22, 24 (pdf page, not page number written on manual)
22 has windows me
24 has windows xp
make sure both are setup as such,
If they are setup exactly like the manual, then go to page 35.
The only other thing, if thats not working that i can think of is that mac filtering is enabled, considering that this is a non-wireless device i dont think you need to have mac filtering enabled, but just check, this could be ar reason as to why its not working.
On page 28, theres a reference to something called DHCP, this distributes ip addresses to the computers. Make sure this is enabled.
The last two items can be found by opening your browser and pointing it to
user:admin
pass:admin
(default settings)
Hope something here works.

If you plug out your daughters computer, and then plug it in and watch the computer icons flash (if they dont, go to Start -> Settings -> network connections -> (probably local area network), right click, properties, a little tick box show in system task bar.
Click the network icon in the system task bar, im not sure where the ip is stuck on windows me, but it might be under a tab called support. Look at the ip address, it should be 192.168.1.XXX, or similar, you can check this by going to one of the windows xp computers and checking.
If its saying an ip thats different you will have to set it to automatically find an ip address, by clicking the properties tab, then clicking on TCP/IP, click "Properties" again, then click "automaticaly find address".
If it is already at that setting, then ill need to know what the model number of the router is.

If its a microsoft keyboard, the software that comes with it should be configurable, if you dont have it, download it from microsoft, its a free download but its probably 20MB or so.
Yeah its a feature but if its a "hard-wired" feature then it should be shot, anybody whois a gamer would instantly notice this as a fault, espically in battle games where theres a lot of running from x->z.
If theres no feature with the software on the cd, then try downloading the latest version of the software from the site.

I knew years of pulling shielded wire around the place breakin my back would pay off. Heh, yeah $1200 on cables, must be a nightmare of a setup to move muhahahahahahahaha

did you try patching the game with the latest patches from EA?

using x-windows.
FreeBSD isnt exactly the easiest in the world, and beyond using x-windows, i dont know how, i only use the command line myself and dont need the gui interface.

If all else fails try microsoft, have you looked at their already built in firewall?
Pierce

i only have the pro, but the free version is so old i wouldnt touch it.
BTW, did you try using bitcommet?

Anything made of metal will pick it up, even a coat hanger, just because its not plugged into an amplifyer and speakers, doesnt mean it isnt happening, even my mobile phone is audiable in my laptop speakers, and this is a 3 month old $4200 alienware!

i like agnitum outpost, and yes DMZ isnt as secure, thus the mention of the firewall.
They say though that the windows firewall is fine, and anything else is just extra memory but thats other people.
Ive never needed to use DMZ in bittorent, p2p etc etc, because most of this stuff is state-ed, not state-less as your not acting a server.
Sorry for the lecture but heres how NAT works. Lets take e-amil. You check your pop mail on port 110, to mail.server.com, your NAT device, usualy an all in one device, says "computer with ip accessed mail.server.com on port 110", mail.server.com comes back on 110 and the nat device knows what computer the orginal signal came from, thus its "stated".
However, if your running a server, the nat device doesnt know this, thus you have to set port forwarding, use DMZ or whatever other strategy to get around this, this is because theres no inital state behind the nat, so its state-less.
The usage of nat is wonderfull it does violate the RFC of the internet standards, such as that each computer should have its own ip, but it also stops problems such as port scanning, reduces viruses and so on.
Thats why people who are directly connected to the internet using their cable modem find they are as vunrable as dialup users, and dsl people feel they are not as vunrable because they usualy have an all in one, with NAT.

If it was, youd have a letter not some colour changing on your font.
I think theres some action that makes text blue, but only happens then, id say your windows is falling apart more than anything.
