Not too good at going thru hijackthis logs.. anyone wanna take a stab at it? Have an issue with the homepage getting hijacked after the first time IE loads. first time IE starts at the proper page, then after going to a couple websites it gets sent to some random "Search FOr..." website with 1...

Just got news that I'm likely to be setting up an FTP server for one of my neighbors shortly. ATM i have no idea of his set up. It's either going to be a separate box on a lan, or run on the main pc. either way we're probably just going to be dealing with windows. the guy just wants to be...

Being that I am a procrastinator extrodinaire, I meant to post this in February... I ordered the MS Security Update CD so that when I reformatt I can get the needed patches without connecting to the intarweb. I need to do that because someone on my little stretch of the 'net gives me at least...

Okay, I've decided that I want to try Linux, did a bit of reading, and it's sounding like I might be headed toward Debian, still reading a bit more. If anyone wants to pimp their personal favourite distro, that'd be fine. I have an Nforce2 chipset, and Nvidia has been putting out linux...

Just curious, is anyone on the boards running with no page file? If I had a gig of ram I probably would, but even at 512Megs I'm thinking about trying it. I haven't peaked over 300megs used in a long time.

My friend suggested Knight Online, since I've given up trying Lineage 2. It's alright, takes a bit of getting used to. Reminds me quite a bit of Diablo 2, only in 3D and tons of spammers, but you can ignore the constant chatter. It's only in Open Beta at the moment, so still a little rough...

I downloaded a zipfile, that had an "extra" program I knew to have a trojan in it, so i deleted the file. now when AVG runs, it keeps picking the file up in the "recycler" here C:\RECYCLER\S-1-5-21-1844237615-343818398-839522115-1005\DC3.ZIP:\start.exe Trojan horse Dropper.Bridge.A and...

I just found DbPowerAmp does conversions to and from most audio formats, integrates with Windows Explorer right click menus and when accessing the proggie from the start menu does batch conversions. Uses the LAME encoder 3.wutevah for mp3 encoding. Also will rip cds to MP3, but EAC + LAME/Razor...

Nforce3 250Gb. all it's missing for me is pci Xpress. after they pop one of these out with that, I will be selling off siblings on the black market

Got a hdd with a couple bad sectors. Windows98 has scanned then and supposedly marked them so that they won't be used again. Except for the fact that this is the third time it's done this for the same bad sectors. Think I should call it a hardware issue or maybe try and see if Win2k handles this...

Trying to fix a PC that was given away to a friend for free...Random Gateway box, Win98. 2 primary issues, hdd seems to have a couple bad clusters on it (running a scan now) and the craptastic compaq Ij600 printer doesn't want to work. I know the printer itself is alright, I hooked it up to my...

Desktop Cam Found some nifty freeware. SCWebCam Does the usual webcam thing, only rather than being a picture of you with your computer screen reflecting off your face, it takes screenshots and will ftp them on up. here's mine. although I'm going to read the paper and whatnot, so you...

Just found this over at Broadbandreports.com by way of Arstechnica. http://www.broadbandreports.com/shownews/40921 Dynamic IP, no logs, no info to give to whatever version of BigBrother is watching your neck of the woods. I'd like to show you the prefered ISP of scriptkiddies and...

If anyone is curious as to what i'm doing, you can click HERE and see what i'm up to(it's WebcamXP)... well sort of. i run my resolution at 1024x768 and the largest this will put out is 640x480, so it's small like whoa. i think you should be able to tell if i'm looking at porn. also, it takes up...

Stupid driver from the manufacturer website didn't want to work with their "OneTouch" software...said the hell with it and just used their driver and WindowsXP Scanner Wizard, which is fairly decent.

Found out on [H]ardOCP that the new WQHL 56.64 drivers are on the Nvidia public ftp, for Windows XP and 2000. They are not released on the website yet though, so I guess that it's use at your own risk. ftp://download.nvidia.com/Windows/56.64
