    Time for a new operating system?? 1 2

    I used winme just until a little after they stopped offering support and they admitted, at the very end, that it was a dud that cannot be secured. I found windows2000 that I like and is supported but how about trying Linux and give up the spyware virus magnet, especially on a system that cannot even be secured in the first place. Try PcLinux, get the minime version. Simply download the ISO file and burn it to a CD with DeepBurner and set your BIOS to boot fropm the CD drive and reboot. Use the system from your hard drive and decide if you like it or not. If you like it install it.

    AdAware SE Personal Build 1 2

    I just read the tail end of the recent thread regarding AdAware SE and would appreciate if someone wouldn't mind taking a few minutes more and clarifying this for me. My version of AdAware is SE1R210.27.12.2007. Any time I check for updates I'm told that I am up to date. A visit to the Lavasoft website explains that support for this version expired December 31, 2007 but that I should replace it with AdAware 2007. The problem is that 2007 requires Windows 2000 or better. Mike has explained to Heather that Lavasoft has fixed the problem with the dated definitions and that she can download new definitions for AdAware SE from the Lavasoft site. I do indeed see w…

    'opefully there is still time for me to learn to control our WinMe computer. I've noticed since I got to messing around with it, that System Restore points dissappearing for no reason I was aware of. I don't run some of the Disk Cleaning Utilities nearly as much as I used to. I used to Defragment alot (every night) because I had seen how disk (file) fragmentation can degrade system response time. Back then I never used System Restore points - was barely aware they existed. It also seemed I never needed them. Nowadays things have changed (Dunno why / wish I did) System Restore points can really save your system. In these circumstances, I am pretty sure th…

    Hibernate & Garbage Collection & Finer Points

    My oh my, the activity on this group seems to be getting thin like my hair... When you "hibernate" primarily for garbage collection ( the analog to memory as scandisk is for disk), one would rather not have their system take a nap. One just wants ME to clean up its used-memory and unused memory linked lists and then let the user do what ever they want. Unfortunately, as the name of the mode says, one will have to hibernate until taking the few steps required to wake up from hibernation. Those steps might easily take a minute or two. (On our computer, I have to go get a finger nail clipper but that's another story). I know everybody (except me, apparently)…

    Is there a way to run scandisk @ startup before the Windows GUI is loaded (like in Windows 95 or 98)?

    Network issue

    Hi I have a problem with an old laptop that I want to set up with my wireless broadband connection. The problem that I have (I think) is that I am missing 'My network Places' and also missing the IEEE802.1x network protocol. The wireless USB adapter is a brand new Safecom one and works fine on my other laptop, which has the 2 missing items above, so it rules out the adapter. The adapter finds my connection and links up fine, but I cannot get any web pages. Any ideas?? Many thanks TK
