  10. Thanks, Pierce. I just read on the Internet that the patches are going to be released tomorrow. One of the six patches is critical, one has malicious software removal tools included. I'll get mine when they're available.
  11. I agree with you on that one. I'm not a windows expert, but, is it possible to buy a copy of XP that lets you install it on multiple computers, like a family pack?
  12. Welcome back, thesidekickcat!!! Very sorry to hear about the muscle aches and strains, yard work and a virus will do that! I'm happy you've got your computer on-line again. It's good to see you again!!

  15. I try to relax even though I don't have the insoles. The automated googlebot is watching us.............eep.........and you thought Carnivore was bad:-) We should probably be well-behaved when it is present. macmarauder maybe you can create a googlebot detector alarm:-) I'm being silly today.
  16. Agreed. All of my M$ software is legal. However, compared to Linux ( cost= $ 0) M$ is costly. That and as you said all of the other M$ products you may need to buy like Norton AV, M$ Office can make the cost add up. I'm not anti- M$ per se. Just making some observations on the cost of computing these days. Each to his own.
  17. Agreed, Liz! I like MS products and run them on one of my PCs,but, the cost of running legal software on that PC is very high indeed. It is silly when the total cost of the OS and installed software exceeds the cost of the hardware. That is one of the reasons why I started to use Linux. I can't afford MS products.
  18. Hi mikex, My deepest sympathies go out to you and your family in this difficult time! That is a real tragedy. Hang in there, man!!
  19. I'm confident in your skills too, shanenin You rule as a computer technician. But, if you're the least bit hesitant about this wiring job I would get a professional to at least advise you, tell you if you're on the right track. Just a thought, I know it's none of my business.
  20. weird...................reference to eerie woman:-)
