i agree with cat i usually used to go in and disable lots of things because i thought i was freeing up resources but i found when you disable one thing others depend on it . at first i didnt know weather i was comming or going . becase i didnt know any better . and i used black viper . but after reading this forum i dont think ide be to keen to disable any more. lots of times any problem i had . i didnt know. it was because i i disabled the appli. in services . my, learning .learning. marty

donkey fable One day a farmer's donkey fell down into a well. The animal cried piteously for hours as the farmer tried to figure out what to do. Finally, he decided the animal was old, and the well needed to be covered up anyway; it just wasn't worth it to retrieve the donkey. He invited all his neighbors to come over and help him. They all grabbed a shovel and began to shovel dirt into the well. At first, the donkey realized what was happening and cried horribly. Then, to everyone's amazement he quieted down. A few shovel loads later, the farmer finally looked down the well. He was astonished

i have to admit ive been there to delibritly swear to test the waters and it seems to go over their heads . so like all the posters say open slather . back to pete when we shifted from techtv . to g4 pete protected us from power hungry mods . a couple of them pushed us around and pete jumped in and. and helped us to adjust . it made me so nervous i used to make all sorts of mistakes . so he will be missed by many. marty

over and above what we already pledged. i see we are running a telethon. to raise additional pledges . the respnse in my country is, phenominal, and im so proud to be part of it. i contributed early. but what little i have goes to help those blacks and the poor . i watched CNN where a discussion . was taken by the interviewer.several people involved and all said the gov moved to late now when they were critisized they are trying to make up lost ground. bush nursed a little black baby that was covered in mud . i bet he will wash himself for a week condeliza was processing food parcels

thanks when i got it. i was very green. and didnt sort of think about the end result. if i had of known, i didnt need to buy it from the mirror . but i was into linux very early. i had mandrake 9.1 as soon as it came out but my hdd was onfy 3.5. and it was very tight . so i had to get a bigger hdd and when installed mandrake i couldnt configure the modem and it is like that today. i have 3 linux oses and being on dial up that modem takes some configuring so i gave it up and had to put up with winxp marty
