ok I have a noobish question and I'm hoping you guys can help me without laughing too much, is it possible to set up more than one wordpress account from the same computer? what happens is that I want to use wordpress for blogging but I have a couple of persons in the household who want to do the same thing, and I heard from someone at school that it is possible to use your IP just once when you are hosting a blog and that you can't have many blogs because the server of the site doesn't allow you to do so? any info would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance

hand't even thought about the screen size, thanks shanenin

unfortunately he did

thanks for the tips, by the way do you think I would need a caddy in order to install the new hard drive? what happens is that, it's my father's old thinkpad which he used for work, and after taking out the hard drive he gave it to me as a gift for school work. I checked the comp using a Gutsy Gibbon live CD and everything seems to be fine I only need to buy a hard drive and install it. I'd just want to know if a caddy is really neccesary or if it's enough with a bare bones hard drive to install.

what brand would you guys recomend? Is Western Digital a good brand? I think I've heard some mixed up comments before, is upgrading a laptop's hard drive as simple as placing it inside, rebooting and ready to go?

thanks for the reply, I thought it would more troublesome like matching the model number in your laptop, and thanks for the cool links

What should I consider in order to pick up the right drive? is it possible to just pick up any brand, on any size? I want to upgrade my Thinkpad-R40 -2681 hard drive, and I was thinking of going for a 120GB hard drive.

I'll try, in the meantime I was running fixwareout and I have the log for this one ready

I have a problem with smitfraudfix.cmd as soon as press 1 it automatically closes (the cmd window disappears) and doesn't provide me any log report or give me a chance to do anything

ok thanks for the reply, I'll proceed to follow your recommendations murphy.... on a side note, the virus messages have suddenly stopped, I think it was after running combofix. However, autoplay for certain things (such as when you insert a CD or a DVD) has stopped as well, but I'm still able to play them

Yes, thank you shane I just finished making the thread where it belongs to, any mod out there, my apologies for posting it in the wrong section and maybe they can close this thread

My computer has recently caught a virus, I'm not quite sure how (although leaving my little brother play and download files without restrictions may have something to do with it) in any case I'm not sure to what extent is the computer infected, but when I started to do some work in it I found it with a "hazard" wallpaper on the screen, all the icns on my desktop selected simultaneously, and whenever I need to browse the web, avast detects viruses, bombarding me with messages that don't stop even now as I'm writing this post, these are the names of the files infected as shown by avast but it ca

thanks for the tip fellows, I'll start by downloading the hijackthis program and later I'll try to post the log here

I found an extra copy I had bought of Win XP in my shelf and I decided to install it in a spare system with 512 MB of ram and a 850 MHZ processor, well installation was going smoothly until I ended up with the message "The file 'asms' on Windows XP Home Edition CD-ROM is needed" "Type the path where the file is located, and then click OK" I have tried selecting D:\I386 since that is the default, but it doesn't work and the other option it gives me is A:\ but I'm not sure what to type in it since I thought this was the letter for the floppy drive. I haven't seen this type of message before and

A few weeks ago I was able to set-up file sharing thanks to the advise from the people at this forums, I turned on the options "share this file on network" and "Allow network users to change my files" and it has remained like that since then, yesterday late at night I wasn't able to access the web so I decided to call my ISP first thing in the morning and they helped me sort out the problem with my modem and I have online access again today. However, I was trying to access a folder of computer "B" from computer "A" and I got a message that says "[myfoldernamehere] is not accesible. You may not

thanks for the tip bubba, it's working now

I'm confused, file sharing seems to have finally been set up properly, I can play files from one computer in the other, and they all show up, but when I try to move any file from computer to the other I can't, and instead I get the error: "cannot create [name of file here]or replace access is denied" "make sure disk is not full or write protectd"

I shut down both firewalls completely, and I still receive the same error, how do I "ping' each computer from the other?
