    no good shouting foe me i dont drink

    oh c'mon!

    it is scientifically proven that moderate consumption of beer improves the cardiovascular system. :D

    one bottle wouldnt hurt. :D

    just kidding!

    ha ha ha

    it dosent say what it does to your head.

    my mum and dad used to drink.and it sort of put me off the stuff.

    tho remember i when i was 21 i got what they called a bit tipsy.

    and the only improvement i got was my libido.

    so for that score alone.hahaha

    who knows

    i had a similair problem

    and when i posted pete replied and said go in and uncheck all java applis

    in internet options so i did and havent had any trouble since .

    he also said if you need to use java install sun java .

    but i havent done that but my sys is working well.

    hey bearskin i got a blaster.from several posters when i answered one who;s heading read

    can you beat this.

    so i jumped in and said yes over your bloody head.now i appoligise for using the b word here but iwas so p----sed off all these rich kids bloated egos and all posting like that.and the worse of it was he didnt ask for any help.

    so refuse i to go there or ile be on blood presure pills.

    the only help he needed was to fill his head with self importence.

    i hope that dosent happen here.i know for some reason it dosent happen at world start message board.most of the posters are in the older age group

    much like this board.so ive got my fingers crossed.tho i dont think it will happen here this board has a much broader tech based posters

    and g4 is a gamers board witch attracts the kids .

    im glad you brought this subject up its been tearing at my hair roots for some time.and must warn B if some one does that here ile jump in like i did over there.

    hi team i have a Q for the americans. posters on the board .

    i watched a program from the UK.about the legal profession

    up dateing to,the computer age.i must ad this only applies to lap tops.

    it seems the hdd"s are replacable in the new laptops.much like floppys or cds

    there wasnt any connections all that was required was to insert the hdd into a slot and when it was full replace it with another.with out having to.connect it to a ribbon connector.

    this article was researched in the usa.

    my Q does any one know if this technology applys to desk top compts.

    the draw back was it would only take a forty geg hdd at a time.

    tho that would last me a life time.

  14. Is It Possible ?

    in Windows 10, 8, 7, Vista, and XP

    Posted

    yes the motherboard has to be compatable.

    for example is you took the hdd from a p2 to a p3 it wont work.

    i found out ,at that time and i didnt know what the problem was

    we had to clean swipe the hdd and start all over again.with a reinstalation.

    so if your hardware is from one sys to another you up the creek with a paddle

    i learned a lesson from that

    marty

    i know it didnt hurt my hdd i had to go on the net and find a hdd swiper i thnk it was called erasure or somthing like that quite quite while ago now

    I typed what you said and I got a dialog box that said that Windows was already activated. So.what is this supposed to do for me????

    the post wasnt meant for people who know it all

    it was to demonstrate how to active your key .

    chappy is a moderator on this board and he posted that fix .

    i got the same result as you so you and i dont have active our key.

    is that clear enough or do you want a ball by ball explanation

    TREND MICRO WEEKLY VIRUS REPORT

    1. Trend Micro Updates - Pattern File & Scan Engine Updates

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    PATTERN FILE: 2.246.00 http://www.trendmicro.com/download/pattern.asp

    SCAN ENGINE: 7.100 http://www.trendmicro.com/download/engine.asp

    2. Mining for Gold – TROJ_GETEGOLD.A (Low Risk)

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    TROJ_GETEGOLD.A targets users with e-gold accounts. E-gold is an

    integrated account-based payment system mainly utilized for e-commerce. This

    Trojan does not employ typical phishing techniques, such as logging user

    keystrokes in text files that can be sent to a remote malicious user.

    Instead, when a user accesses the

    e-gold account login form it opens a hidden duplicate Internet Explorer

    (IE) window accessing that same URL. It then fills the duplicate Web form,

    which eventually leads to illegal account access. The Trojan periodically

    drains the funds of the compromised account by a certain percentage, and

    the stolen funds are then transferred to another e-gold account. This

    Trojan runs on Windows 95, 98, ME, NT, 2000, and XP and is currently spreading

    in-the-wild.

    Upon execution, this Trojan drops itself as SVHOST.EXE in the Windows

    folder. It then creates a registry entry that allows it to automatically

    execute at every Windows startup. When a user accesses the URL http://e-gold.com/acct/login.html, this Trojan opens a hidden duplicate Internet

    Explorer page of the said URL, which it fills, in order to drain a target

    user’s e-Gold account.

    To successfully perform this function, this Trojan uses Internet

    Explorer’s built-in OLE automation functions. This method is similar to API

    hooks used by PE viruses. In this case, this Trojan executes certain

    functions for every change in the URL address that occurs.

    The following URLs cause this Trojan to execute certain functions:

    e-gold.com/acct/acct.asp

    e-gold.com/acct/balance.asp

    e-gold.com/acct/spend.asp

    e-gold.com/acct/verify.asp

    https://www.e-gold.com/acct/acct.asp

    https://www.e-gold.com/acct/balance.asp

    https://www.e-gold.com/acct/spend.asp

    E-gold account holders should monitor e-gold Security Alerts at the

    following URL:

    http://www.e-gold.com/unsecure/alert.html

    of

    other worms, viruses, Trojans and malicious code, visit HouseCall, Trend
