    Thank you murtu52 and thesidekickcat,

    I really appreciate your responses.

    To tell you the truth, anytime I have questions and concerns, I feel more comfortable posting them here instead of G4techtv and Worldstart message boards.

    Even though I don't post too often, I read these posts daily.

    Thank you again. Will definately post more questions and concerns here.

    Thanks everyone for your help.

    Take care.

    ..............."And turning the speakers down doesn't help either. The click sound is still there."

    are you talking about the physical click sound of the mouse button..??

    ..if so i think your pulling our chains here... <_<

    sorry but i'm having a hard time taking this seriously..

    screi,

    Thank you for your reply.

    No, I'm not pulling your chain, and No, it's not such a big deal. I posted this in world start message board thinking someone over there would have additional information.

    I did learn some things related to this, but it didn't solve the issue.

    I felt that with all the knowledge that's here on the board, someone would know if this could be done.

    I'm not as techie as most here and therefore I ask a lot of stupid questions.

    If it something that can't be done, I definately won't lose sleep over it.

    Will try not to bother anyone with stupid questions here.

    By the way, I'm a female.

    Thanks Chappy and thesidekickcat for replying.

    I've tried what was suggested, control panel, sounds and audio devices, and set the sound scheme to none. No Luck, click is still there.

    And turning the speakers down doesn't help either. The click sound is still there.

    Oh well, guess I'll REALLY have to give people my full attention when talking on the phone.

    Thanks again.

    Hello Everyone,

    I was wondering whether or not there was an option to turn off the mouse click sound.

    Reason being is that occasionally when I'm on the phone, I play freecell (so I may give that person my utmost attention). :rolleyes:

    They can hear the click sounds and I'm sure it's pretty annoying to them.

    I checked google, but couldn't find an answer.

    I'm using Windows XP.

    I appreciate your help.

    Thanks.

  6. Usb Flash Drive

    mikex,

    Had to come back before I called it a night to let you know that I found the solution to this frustrating event. It was right in front of my face - boy do I feel STUUUUPID!!

    In the control panel, there's a list name entitled "Portable Media Devices". I created a shortcut on my desktop.

    Now, when I dbl click it, it shows the flash drive.

    I really thank you again for your kind and relentless patience.

    Now I can call it a night with no stress.

    :P

    Take Care

    Hi mikex,

    I made a shortcut on the desk top and named it G:\flash drive. I also saved it to my desktop.

    When it clicked on it, it just opened up a folder containing my desktop icons.

    I give up for now.

    Going to call it a night and play around with this tomorrow.

    Thank you again mikex.

    Have a good evening.

    I believe if you make a G:\ XP will change the jump drive letter to one that is available.

    Thanks mikex:

    I'm going to ask a really stupid question?

    How do I make the G: directory?

    Seems like more help I receive, more questions I ask --- geesh.

    But I really thank everyone for their patience and time to explain.

    Thanks Nerelda and mikeex.

    I was able to find the flash disk in the USB mass storage file.

    It was in g: directory (I guess this is the removable directory that comes with the flash drive).

    I wonder whether or not there's a way to create a g: directory on my computer. That way I wouldn't have to go through the extra steps to find this thing.

    Thanks again for your help.

  11. Usb Flash Drive

    Hi All,

    I received a San Disk USB flash drive for a Christmas gift.

    After I connected it in the USB port, the drive letter isn't appearing for that drive. My OS is Windows XP Pro.

    I went to the website but it only had driver updates for Windows 98SE.

    So, for now, I can't see how to load files on the flash drive.

    Anyone know how I can see this USB device?

    Thanks for your help.

  14. How Much Is Too Much

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

    Posted

    I am now scanning with my antivirus every evening. I finally found the perfect time to do it, I start the scan, then go work on supper preparation, then come back to check on scan from time to time. Once it is done, then I scan with Spybot. Now this has become a habit with me, it is easier to remember to do it.

    As for the potential harm to the hard drive. I figure getting a virus/worm/trojan, or spyware/malware is an even worse problem for it. So I am going to continue to scan each day at suppertime. If we eat out, then it gets a day's rest. :rolleyes:

    Check often for updates and scan for trouble whenever you want. Stay safe folks.

    God bless everyone.

    Thanks thesidekickcat.

    At least I'm not alone when feeling the "need" to scan every evening or so.

    Take care.

  23. Cabrotor Found In Spybot S&d Scan

    in Malware Removal

    Posted

    I am not sure if this is any help or not.

    I scanned with Spybot just after getting off the internet last night and came up clean. Today I logged on and then came over here, found a notice from someone that Spybot had an update, so I got it, did another scan, and it came up with this:

    "Error during check!: Cabrotor (Datei C:\WINNT\win.ini kann nicht geöffnet werden. The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process) ()

    Congratulations!: No immediate threats were found. ()"

    So it appears to be an error of some kind. It still comes up with same thing on additional scans. I don't know if that is any help or not. I would like to hear if anyone else is getting the same thing.

    I am sorry if this is the wrong place to put this but thought it might be pertinent.

    God bless everyone.

    Wow - I'm glad to know that it's just not happening to me.

    I wonder if they goofed up again in their update.

    Thanks thesidekickcat.

    Take care
