  11. hi team last night i saw two applications revived from the dos prompt. the program was called click on line from the BBC in the united kingdom. it seems both programs were corrupted not sure how but was revived through the command prompt . now my Q is it possable for us to have some sort of forum on. the command prompt. il_wiccan and tk. are known posters in this area. in my favourites i have many dos command.tutorials . but none on how to fix your sys through this medium. i remember when at c.f.h i had trouble with outlook express cant remember the exact problem and some one posted in an
  12. i would like to learn to use the registry.twice now ive had to reinstall xp but i found later i could have fixed it with a reg tweak but i do agree with dave a new user can get into trouble not knowing what to do. the problem here is if we wait to get a reg fix from the posters on this board it how long before we get an answer.there arnt many posters any where who can handle the answers and questions.at the moment i need a fix for the components services which ive posted on 3 boards.and havent got a fix yet other than reinstalling xp so im in this catergory of six of one and half dozen of t

    Avg Beta

    ho team recently i installed the beta version of avg7. and it was working well until just now i turned my compt on and a notice came up saying avg had fialed to initialise . i tried al ways to get it working but it was no go. so i uninstalled it and loaded avast so if any one loads the avg7 beta watch for this. yes i agree it is the beta version so we have to watch out for things like that. personally i find there isnt much difference except this version of avast uses 18 megs .where as avg only uses 9 megs. so in size alone avast is a hell of a lot bigger than avg.when avg comes on stream
  14. i have the beta version and i havent had any trouble .tho the updates have to be manually set also i dont know where to go for it to automatic.lly scan. how ever it is doing its work. and it scans incomming mail and it shows just above your tray. before it didnt show that.it did it in the background once it is released i will install it. marty the beta version im using will be free once it is released
  15. hi rv56 me to i used regcleaner when on cfh but both chappy and pete warned me against it i remember chappy posted and said marty do you know how to use it and i had to be honest and said no.and he said what have you got it on your sys for. and he was dead right. i thought it was cool to have these applis on my sys which me feel as tho i was important and knowledgable. my did i come down with a fallen ego. since then ive felt as tho they have taught me well. tho im still an novice marty
  16. hi chappy yes i remeber both you and pete tried to discourage us from using them. and up until now i havent used them. to be honest i didnt realise CCleaner was a reg hack.shows you how dumb i am i didnt realise it until i read your post. you and pete taught me a lot about compts so perhaps i need a refresh. take care marty
  17. heY TK before you accident you posted a fix on how to insatll sfae mode fron the command prompt and ive hunted all over the microsoft site for it but cant locate it where did you get it from.it isnt for me but a friend cant get safe mode by tapping f8. but your fix did the trick i didnt get a chance to post to you because you had the accident.i appreciate it if you could help so i can email it to a friend marty

  19. hi team. i have a problem i have lost the use of my win component snapin this is twice this has happened.the last time it happened i had to reinstall xp but ive just come from another board.and two posts were having the same problem.and it seems CCleaner is the culprit.which is taking out the extensions. i recall when i scanned i saw the snapin appli in the run cleaner.which i deleted because i trusted the appli.now i cant prove CC was the culprit but.from those other posts.it could be one of the reasons i lost the use of the snapin and there isnt any means to isolate those entrys and take the
