The aircraft is so aerodynamically perfect, that the only practical way to descend is using drag parachutes,...
Now that's, aerodynamic!

Another option to try:
Go to the page using Firefox.
Click Tools.
Select Page Info.
Click the Media tab.
Scroll through the list at the top, and highlight the image you want to save, then click the Save As... button.

The profile folder is not removed when you uninstall Firefox from Add/Remove.
It will retain all of your previous settings, and re-apply them to your new install, if it's not deleted.
That's why, when you install a new version of Firefox, your previous settings, bookmarks, passwords, etc., all remain the same.
For a Fresh (start from scratch) install, this folder has to be removed.
Uninstall your current version of Firefox from Add/Remove programs.
Set windows to show hidden files.
Then navigate to:
C:\ Documents and Settings \ "your user name" \ Application Data \ Mozilla \ Firefox \ Profiles
Delete this folder (or send it to the Recycle Bin as a backup).
Then navigate to:
C: \ Program Files \ Mozilla Firefox, and delete that folder.
Then reinstall Firefox.
That will create a new Profile folder.
Note: All of your previous preferences will be lost.
You will have to go through the options menu, and reset everything back to the way you had it.
You might want to make a copy of Bookmark.html while your in there.
It's located here:
C:\ Documents and Settings \ user name \ Application Data \ Mozilla \ Firefox \ Profiles \ default.7dp \ Bookmark.html
That way you can replace the new one created, with all of your current bookmarks.

Nevermind.
JSKY covered it.
I need to remember to refresh, before posting.

I wonder if Sony learned their lesson, about getting their customers mad?
Seems like, maybe not:

I run my antivirus/spyware apps in Normal Mode, at least once a week.
Once a month I'll run everything in Safe Mode, as a check, just to make sure nothing was missed in Normal Mode.

Good news, bearskin.
Glad you were able to get it working.

Did you try both links, bearskin?

Do you have the Macromedia Flash Player for Firefox, installed?

I use them both.
For straight conversion dBpower AMP works good.
If you want to do a little more, Audacity is hard to beat.

I'm truly saddened by your news, Tyme.
There's really nothing I can say that would express the sorrow I feel for the loss, that you, and the families affected by this tragedy, must endure.
So, as the others have, I offer my deepest condolences, and the hope that time will heal all wounds.
Take care and try to be strong, for the kids.

I hope you'll have a "less than helpful attitude" when she calls you with computer problems again, at least I hope so (or have her sign some sort of contract beforehand). Too bad for her!

And then charge her 10x the going rate.

You don't know how good it is, to be back.
The withdrawls were getting BAD.

No fatalities = Good News
Good News = Not sensational enough for Network news

Amazingly, not one single life was lost to Rita, in Louisiana.
Very hard to believe.
<{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Yeah, that was due to the fact that everyone listened, and evacuated.
Except for 3 people, Cameron parish had 100% evacuation.
I think Calcasieu was 95%.

Good to be back, robroy.
I thought I would post some pics, of some of the damage done by hurricane Rita, in my area.
These were taken the morning after, when we were still getting occasional showers, and winds gusting to 50 mph.
Damage wise, I lucked out.
I lost about a dozen shingles, and a couple of small branches, near the house, nothing major.
On the corner of the lot, I lost a large limb out of one of my pine trees.
Across the road, a pine tree was blown down.
Oak branch, down in back yard.
Chicken tree branch, down in the front yard.
Front yard looking east. The front steps is where I was sitting as Rita passed through.
Front yard, taken from the front steps.
Leaves stripped off of bamboo.
Road flooded almost to my driveway.
Broken Pine limb, on corner of property.
Downed tree, across the road from Pine, with broken limb.
While I was outside during the storm, about 4:30 a.m., I heard a tornado behind the house.
It downed a couple of telephone poles, and hit one of the neighbors cow barn.
Luckily, it missed his house.
Neighbors cow barn. Notice the gate on top of the barn.
These next images are from my closest (1/4 mi.) neighbors property.
Rent trailer, pushed 5' of it's blocks.
Downed tree, in front of storage shed.
Part of roof, blown off of combine barn.
Colapsed roof on combine barn.
Tin, blown off of work shop barn.
A small tree fell on the house, causing minor damage.
Another neighbor's property.
Was, a two car garage, and a gazebo.
A tree that fell between his house, and his son's trailer.
The next images, are of the town of Kinder.
Although you wouldn't know it from listening to the national news broadcast, Rita caused major damagr to southwest Louisiana.
The city of Cameron, in Cameron parish (a parish is the same as a county, in other states), took the full impact of the storm.
95% of the city was leveled, with flood waters still remaining in parts of the city.
The town of Holly Beach (the Cajun Riviera), west of Cameron, was literally, wiped off the map.
100% destroyed, with only the water tower remaining, no buildings.
Calcasieu parish, north of Cameron, also sustained heavy damage.
Until a few days ago, both parishes were closed to all incoming traffic.
The National Guard was stopping traffic, and turning them back.
They're both, still under curfew.
Power still hasn't been restored completely, to either parish.
A local news station has a good Photo Gallery of the destruction caused to Calcasieu, and Cameron, parishes.
Amazingly, not one single life was lost to Rita, in Louisiana.

You just now got power???? Wow, that's a long time to be "camping".
<{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Too long, especially in high 90 degree heat, and 100% humidity.
I LOVE electricity.
Early Retirement
in The Comedy Club
Posted
The Navy found they had too many officers and decided to offer an early retirement bonus. They promised any officer who volunteered for retirement a bonus of $1,000 for every inch measured in a straight line between any two points in his body. The officer got to choose what those two points would be.
The first officer who accepted, asked that he be measured from the top of his head to the tip of his toes. He was measured at six feet and walked out with a bonus of $72,000.
The second officer who accepted was a little smarter and asked to be measured from the tip of his outstretched hands to his toes. He walked out with $96,000.
The third one was a non officer grizzly old Chief who, when asked where he would like to be measured replied, "from the tip of my weenie to my testicles." It was suggested by the pension man that he might want to reconsider, explaining about the nice big checks the previous two officers had received. But the old Chief insisted and they decided to go along with him providing the measurement was taken by a medical officer.
The medical officer arrived and instructed the Chief to "drop'em," which he did. The medical officer placed the tape measure on the tip of the Chief's weenie and began to work back.
My God!" he suddenly exclaimed, "Where are your testicles?"
The old Chief calmly replied . . "Vietnam"
