Guest 456 Posted January 15, 2008 Posted January 15, 2008 This is an incredible tweak that has improved the performance of my system by leaps and bounds. There have been lots of articles and tweaks concerning the Page File. I have tried them all, however... http://online-windows-xp.blogspot.com/

Guest Gerry Posted January 15, 2008 Posted January 15, 2008 Re: Stripping Page File across Multiple Hard drives In earlier NT systems it was usual to have such a file on each hard drive partition, if there were more than one partition, with the idea of having the file as near as possible to the 'action' on the disk. In XP the optimisation implied by this has been found not to justify the overhead, and normally there is only a single page file in the first instance.

No, I don't think that the spammer is going to see it and feel bad, by having it labeled as spam immediately after it was posted other readers wiil see a post right below it identifiying as spam and they will skip over the spam.

Guest Alan Posted January 16, 2008 Posted January 16, 2008 Re: SPAM! Stripping Page File across Multiple Hard drives Re: SPAM! Stripping Page File across Multiple Hard drives The best thing to do with spam and other crap is to ignore it. I know I'm contradicting myself here by replying, but there's been so many replies to this post that one more won't really make much difference. Look at who first replied. 1/.'Poprivet' who's now become Twain. Limited knowledge, big ego, mainly stupid advice. 2/.'Uncle Grumpy' Elderly man with serious personality disorders. People like these have no interest in helping anyone, they just post crap to inflate their own ego's. DON'T FEED THE TROLL!! Ignore spammers and they will usually go away. Alan.

If one sees the spam subject before the reply post identifying it has been added and then later comes back to the newsgroup, they see the spam subject yet again in the reply post. This means that these replies actually expose us to the spam more often. If the spam is so obviously spam that one feels they can 100% identify it as spam to everyone else, it is likely that everyone else can figure this out for themselves, as well. If the message is fraudulent or one has more information than what is in the original message, by all means point this out, but back it up with more than just saying *SPAM*, as it is not just a simple spam message in this case.
