    MSN Invasion...

    Please, Anyone.... Does the priviledge of "using" Microsoft mean that we must be subjected to their stupid, unwelcome, irrelevant, obnoxious, arrogant pop up ads? I use blockers and log-killers. They still get by and jump in my face. How can we hurry with the next generation of this...

    MSN Invasion...

    "This operation has been cancelled due to restrictions in effect on this computer. Contact your system administrator." This is what I see when using "tools"...Internet options...all to get rid of MSN's homepage. I would like to be given choices that we are being denied,more...

    Invasion of the Explorer!

    Hello Everyone.... I have an interesting, yet, perplexing problem. As a lurker to this site for a long time, I usually get the help I need from just....lurking! I recently moved to another state.

    IE SPAM Ads....

    Seems to be happening more frequently lately.... The "push" for SPAM reform (?) has taken on a new face. MS has started dropping nice little unwelcomed banners onto my desktop. It is very simple to "X" out of them but....the very idea! Just today I was asked if my septic tank...

    All my CD burning/ripping programs cannot read the CD-RW Device.

    Sounds like a very similar problem I was having. The suggested fixes should do the trick. FYI, not sure what program you are using for your burner but.....I just switched from Roxio's CD Now to Iomega's "Burn and Go-Gold". This my system (XP) seemed to like this much better and...

    Where's the blue????

    Thanks for all the suggested "delays" in my purchase of a new monitor. We expect some warning before the expiration of anything electronic or mechanical. In this case....it was/is the blue gun. Without this primary color all others would be perfect for someone color-blind. Since I'm...

    Where's the blue????

    Hi, I have learned more from "lurking" the forum than any "Idiots" or Dummies" publication. Thanks! Now, it seems I have a problem of my own.... I use a 21" ViewSonic monitor and XP. Out of the blue....no pun.....my display stopped processing any shade of blue. I...
