anyone?I've seen a small box of advertisment coming up from bottom right corner of both of IE and chrome. I ran all the malaware/virus detection but there is not positive sign of it. I've Tried to live with it but it some times get highly unappropriate.
And seems like I'm not only one having this kind of problem.
Sometimes advertisement asks me for date with Rick Griffin's comic
Ahhh Dinner with comicbook?
No I don't want your Graamically incorrectz advertsiment
Help...
And if that doesn't work, download the free Avast! antivirus:DingoVolf wrote:Did a cursory search around teh webs and found some discussions about something that sounds very similar. Looks like malware and some jacking with your hosts file.

She says it might be the solution to her problem.
If you have any suggestions, please contact her through Skype or post it here, where someone else can relay it to her.Beagle wrote:My problem is, I can get into my router settings, but I'm not really sure about how to change my MAC address. I can check HP at school.

I've gotten one DNS error, but mostly a lot of "Oops! Google could not find the webpage" and I've also seen "the server sent no data" messages.
That's what I thought too.Tiggy wrote:Shouldn't it be exactly the same? C:

I LOVE YOU. Thank you so much! It created a .vcf file named "all" and that was the master file! Now I've got a copy of all my cell phone contacts in my iPod Touch (my phone broke yesterday and I have an SD card). You rock Obbl!Obbl wrote:You need the 'cd':
cd C:\Users\Caitlin\Documents\Vcards
(cd means "change directory")
Alternatively if you're already in C:\Users\Caitlin:
cd Documents\Vcards
Then smoosh 'em all together:
copy *.vcf all.vcf
I've got about 80 processes and 30% physical memory running when my laptop is sitting at idle. RAM memory runs maybe about 10%. That's not too shabby, but I'm looking at ways to cut those processes and physical memory down a bit. I need to clean the dust (I've never opened up a laptop so I am terrified of cleaning it myself, which means my laptop's internal fans have never been cleaned) but it's never overheated.Beagle wrote: It's an HP Pavilion dv6t series.

Media Center, not Media PlayerJeffCvt wrote:That makes me so glad that I have Windows 7.
I got lucky it seems. I never really used Vista and I shouldn't be needing a new computer anytime soon.
My personal theory behind Windows 8 is that it was designed to be more touch friendly than anything else. My mom has it on her laptop and isn't really impressed by it either.
Also, Windows Media Player now costs $100 instead of coming free on your computer? Media Player is not a $100 program, at least from my experience. The only real reason I started using it was because iTunes wouldn't sync music to my phone. I've had to deal with enough crap from Media Player that if it wasn't for the fact it came on my computer for free, I would stop using it.
The sad thing is is that I just understood everything you just said. Either that would be one freakishly powerful processor, or we'd hit some sort of wall as you said in terms of physics and electricity and it would just be a ton of energy with no real focus of going in any particular direction and that probably wouldn't work unless we could learn how to better control it.Arbitrary wrote:So, uhh. How long do you think it will take before we will reach the point in processor manufacture when the transistors are so miniaturized we lose track of electrons as they move through them due to the Uncertainty Principle? It would be a quantum wall of sorts as transistors per unit area reaches an asymptotic limit. Moore's law subverted by uncooperative and unpredictable electrons. At which point in time will we break the silicon wall and reach new means of computing?
