Fireflop Freezing On Weather.com & Ebay
DumbTerminal replied to Bubba Bob's topic in Windows 10, 8, 7, Vista, and XP
Hey bubba I've had alot of problems myself. I've found that since about ver 1.0, FF LOVES to crash, especially if you have alot of extensions. I just recently uninstalled and reinstalled, and took it easy on the extensions, only using Mozilla approved ones, and it works ok. Still crashes if I leave it open over night, depending on the site that I am on. Keep in mind, when you uninstall, you should wipe out ALL traces. Save your bookmarks I deleted the profile, and EVERY reg entry that had to do with FF Those who have no problems with FF are not power users Argue amongst yourselves.. -
I may have to finally switch to Opera. I always wanted to control my cookies better (maybe FF has an extension for that) Besides, I have been getting more and more disapointed with FireFox over the past year or so In reference to the original subject, I remember using a program called "Spider" or "Spider Bite" several years ago that deleted the contents of the index.dat files

Go to Start > Run Type %temp% That will open the folder Ctrl+ a selects all files Hit the delete key Hit Enter at the prompt If and when you get a prompt that it cannot delete a file in use, it will be the first file listed in the folder Hold down Ctrl and click on the file to un-highlight it Hit delete key Hit enter at the prompt Lather, rinse repeat The time it took to type all of the above out, this process could've been performed on 10 computers Don't forget to empty your Temporary Internet Files also. This can use up alot of space, and all of the porn you have been surfing shows up in

Upgrage Or Full Version Of Xp Pro

I see you mentioned XP Pro in the subject, and XP "Home" in your last post. Urge this person to stick with Pro -
Strange, but that page of "plug-ins" are the actual programs themselves, not plugins It helps me. I need to know MIME types for my firewall. Now I know where to start unblocking things that arent listed in my error logs. [rant] It seems everything worked fine for me, until I updated to FF 1.5 this morning. Now even after updating my extensions, things are still broke...oh well, just venting...[/rant]

Sweet, thanks very much I thought I had a bookmark on how to do that, but I couldn't find it. I forgot about using cat to write out contents... I learn so much (sometimes TOO much) about CLI everyday. I have several conf files I want to experiment with, and this will probably save me literally hours! Thanks again.

No, I wanted to copy all of the information in the 3 seperate configuration files into one single configuration file. I just copied the info from the 3 files individually and pasted it into one file. I was just thinking it would be cool if there were a quicker, easier way to do that. Thanks for responding

Hi guys I was wondering if it is possible to copy the contents of several files into a new file? I have 3 files conf1.txt, conf2.txt, conf3.txt I want to put the contents of all 3 files into one file; masterconf.txt Is this possible? If so, can someone give me the syntax? I tried a few different cp commands, but without the desired results.I haven't seen this covered in Google, only copying multiple files into one directory, etc.. Thanks! Edit: I've found batch files from Googling, but that's not exactly what I am looking for, and my feeble mind doesn't understand them.

Print Job Stuck In Queue

Go to Start > Run and type in services.msc hit enter Scroll to the print spooler service, and stop/ restart it That should do the trick -
Adaware and Spybot basically do the "same thing" as you put it, but it is good to have both. The reasoning is that not all spyware definitions are exactly the same, therefore Adaware may find some things that Spybot does not, and vice versa. SpywareBlaster is not a scanner. It sets killbits that help prevent spyware from being installed in the first place.When you run this program, you need to Update, then Enable All Protection. You should do this every couple of days or so. Heres a tutorial on how to use SpywareBlaster and what it does. http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/ind...showtutoria

Hi guys and gals I am working on a remote computer that has Symantec Corporate edition installed (not sure which version, I think it's 10) There is a server group in there that we could no longer unlock. It said that the password is incorrect, but I know it isn't So we just installed a new server group. This was several months ago. I was in there today trying to figure out how to delete the old group without the password to no avail. There is a tool called iforgot.exe that shows the encrypted password, and you are supposed to contact support and have them decrypt it for you. For a huge fee Upo

Hi DueceHearts You should just take the advice given here, and abandon your thread at G4 As far as I know, all of the qualified log readers have left G4's tech forum. You also shouldn't cross post HJT logs, because the log readers have no way of knowing what you may have already done, therefore your computer can get screwed up. I'll post at G4 also

Windows Security Center Is Incorrect
DumbTerminal replied to daygo140's topic in Windows 10, 8, 7, Vista, and XP
I remember there being an issue with that after SP2 You may have to get an update from either Symantecs website or windows Update. Dont know if these will help or not http://support.microsoft.com/kb/883792 http://forum.us.dell.com/supportforums/boa...essage.id=42142 http://reviews.cnet.com/4520-10168_7-5543538-1.html -
Networking Help..........
DumbTerminal replied to The Dragon Slayer's topic in Windows 10, 8, 7, Vista, and XP
All the info you need should be provided in the links and posts above. I believe you can run the wizard on your XP machine, then save it to disk and run it on the 98 machine. That would be the quick way (if it works) but you won't learn anything that way. The router doesn't need to know anything (workgroup name) about your network. It should work fine out of the box -
Looking For Driver For Hp Deskjet 710c For Xp
DumbTerminal replied to velda's topic in Windows 10, 8, 7, Vista, and XP
If I am understanding, you are clicking no after the digitally signed warning. Just ignore that and click YES. Digital signing is just a way fo MS to make money, and it basically means nothing -

In otherwords, she is willing to pay $450 and you are going to put together a $250 system, install a copy of win98, an older OS (and is it already installed on a computer? Remember, one copy one computer you cannot legally install it on another unless you wipe the first). Then you will pocket the other $200. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> If that is the case, BAD GRADSON!!!! Get her the Dell, a kiss on the cheek, and promise to help her with future issues... Shame, shame, son!!

Theoretically,you can get anything to run if you have experience and you tweak the hell out of it. I didnt read the article, but I'm sure it refers to "out of the box" Then my opinion is a min of 512 if you multitask

At the request of TT, I am reposting my problem from G$ to here: Here is a link for reference, but I'll give more info in this thread http://forums.g4tv.com/messageview.cfm?cat...threadid=470462 I cannot use another client, and I'd rather not reinstall outlook, as I have other domain users on that computer that are configured and working. I also wouldn't be able to get there til tomorrow, as my car is in the shop. Heres the setup. Keep in mind there is still alot about networking(especially with samba) that I dont understand. The computer logs into a samba domain. I added 3 users to the SuSe s
