    Lavasoft’s new add-on VX2 Cleaner detects the malware VX2 and offers you the ability to remove it from your computer. Some users have experienced a very difficult variant of VX2 which cannot be removed by Ad-Aware. For those users which have this variant, we have developed an add-on to help you remove this VX2 variant.

    This VX2 variant registers itself in a way, which gives it system privileges. It also prevents the user from viewing this information by removing the user’s rights to do so. Furthermore it constantly monitors the registry and prevents any attempts to remove its associated values. This makes it very difficult for the user to manually remove it.

    The VX2 Cleaner works with all editions of Ad-Aware.

    Here's a link.

    marsh,

    I'm also on Direcway. If you use Firefox, have you used their Bandwidth Tester extension? Just curious about how different Direcway systems compare. I average between 1.5 and 3 Mb/sec.

    Boudreaux and Thibodeaux hired themselves a pilot to fly

    them into the far north for some elk hunting. They got pretty

    lucky, and bagged themselves 6 big bucks. When the pilot

    got back, they started to load all of their gear, including the 6 elk.

    But the pilot objected, "With all your equipment, I can only take 4 elk. Your going to have to leave 2, behind."

    They argued with him; they said that last year they shot 6 and

    he let them take them, and this is the same make and model plane as

    the one he had last year. The pilot, realizing he wasn't going to win the argument, reluctantly agreed.

    When they tried to take-off, and climb out of the valley they were in,

    the little plane couldn't make it. They crashed into the wilderness.

    Climbing out of the wreckage, Boudreaux says, "Tib, you know where we at?"

    "I think so, Boo." says Thibodeaux. "I think this is about the same place where the plane crashed last year."

    The coaches in St. Landry parish went to a coaches retreat and to save

    money they had to room together. No one wanted to room with coach Boudreaux because he snores so bad. They decide it's not fair to make one of dem stay wit him the whole time so they vote to take turns.

    Coach Fontenot sleeps wit him and he come to breakfast next morning hair a mess, eyes all blood shot. They say, "Man, what happen to you?"

    He say, "Man, that Boudreaux snore so loud, I watch him all night."

    Next night is coach Guidry's turn. In the morning, same thing - hair all standing up, eyes all blood shot. They say, "Man, what happened to you? You look awful!"

    He say, "Man, no, that Boudreaux shake the roof. I watched him all night."

    Third night, coach Doucet turn. Next morning he come to breakfast bright

    eyed and bushy tailed. "Good morning ya'll." They can't believe!

    They say, "Man, what happened?"

    He say, "Well, we get ready for bed. I go and tuck Boudreaux into bed and kiss him good night," and with a sly grin adds,"He watch me all night long."

    Hand plane

    From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

    Hand planes are hand woodworking tools used to smooth surfaces of wood.

    Hand planes are generally the combination of a cutting edge, such as a sharpened metal plate, attached to a firm body, that when moved over a wood surface, take up relatively uniform shavings, by nature of the body riding on the 'high spots' in the wood, and also by providing a relatively constant angle to the cutting edge, render the planed surface very smooth.

    Planes are ancient, going back hundreds, if not thousands, of years. Early planes were probably made with wooden bodies, a hole cut in the center of the body, and the cutting blade fixed in place with a wooden wedge, pounded in with a mallet. This type of plane had been found in excavations of old sites as well as drawings of woodworking from medieval Europe and Asia. In fact wooden planes can still be bought from modern planemakers. As time went on, though, some people began to make plane bodies out of cast iron or even bronze. Wood is still popular among some though for various reasons of personal taste, and in any event, the wood can be smoothed however which way one chooses to go.

    Several types of planes exist, such as the

    Finger plane:

    Used for smoothing very small pieces such as toy parts, very thin strips of wood, etc.

    The block plane:

    Can be held with one hand and is used for general purpose stuff such as taking down a knot in the wood, smoothing up small pieces, making the end of a sawed board square and smooth, etc.

    The bullnose plane:

    Has no 'front' on its body, and so can be used in tight spaces like the backs of drawers or on large joint-knobs and whatnot.

    The jack plane:

    Is small enough to be wielded comfortably, but large enough to leave a pretty even surface on a board. Often has a 'rounded' cutting edge for various finessing of the cutting by the user.

    The joiner (or jointer) plane:

    Very large plane used to prepare large boards for fitting together very tightly, such as in long slats used in a tabletop.

    Rabbet plane:

    Used to cut 'rabbets' (a sort of stairstep) in the ends of boards, which can then be joined together.

    Router plane:

    Before modern 'power routers', this was the 'router', and consisted of a body with a small cutting edge extending far down from it... Thus enabling it to cut long grooves into planks of wood, as might be used for attaching shelving or whatnot.

    And many many others.

    One of the most important manufacturers of planes was the Stanley Rule and Level Co., New Britain, Connecticut. Starting in 1870, Stanley sold millions of cast iron hand planes, many based on patents purchased from Leonard Bailey, of Boston, Massachusetts. Stanley purchased other patents and plane manufacturing companies, and continued to improve the design of its planes through the first half of the 20th century.

  19. Sp2 How Long To Wait?

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

    Posted

    I oficially made myself one of the ginnea pigs as well today. I installed SP2 on my XP Professional desktop. I have to say that the installation went smoothly and without fault. As most people did, I also noticed some speed difference in my computer's performance, but not like others have. My speed difference was the opposite....that's right, it's running FASTER! (I don't get it.....) There is no speed diffference while I am doing my usual operating of my system, but on shutting down the computer, I noticed it's about 1/3 faster than it was before. Booting up, I've noticed that the process is also about 1/3 faster, and that no other changes were made to my system, so it couldn't have been anything else I did......go figure.

    I'll try and keep you all up to date on how my SP2 PRO system is doing. I have the Home edition on my laptop, but I'm not stupid enough to update that one yet.....in a few months, I might be though.

    I repeat:

    "GO, ginnea pigs!" lol

    Faster? I'm sure MS will come out with a patch to "fix" that, soon. lol

    A lady walks into a drug store and asks the druggist for some arsenic.

    "Ma'am, what do you want with arsenic?", the druggist asks.

    "I want to kill my husband.", the lady says.

    "I can't sell you any for that reason.", says the druggist.

    The lady pulls a picture from her purse and shows it to the druggist. It's a picture of a man and a woman in a compromising position. The man is her husband, and the woman is the druggist's wife.

    "Ooohh," says the druggist, "I didn't know you had a prescription."

  23. Backing Up Files On Microsoft Xp Home

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

    I save every thing I create, in My Documents.

    To back up my data I burn:

    My Documents

    E-mail & address book (open E-mail / File / Export / address book & E-mails to a folder, then burn)

    Favorites (open IE / File / Import and Export... / export to a folder, then burn)

    I send the E-mails, address book, and favorites to a folder in My Documents called "Personal". That way when I backup My Docs I get everything.

    I also save all of my executables, for my programs that I've downloaded (Spybot, Ad-aware, etc...), in a file called "Installers" in My Docs. That way, you don't have to re-download all the programs you had before the reinstall.

    It all takes about 12 disks, but it's cheap insurance.
