Blunted : Have you tried 64240 as the setting for these ( GlobalMaxTcpWindowSize and TcpWindowSize ).I think thats about the max you can use based on MSS below 65335.I believe 65335 is where scaling kicks in so you have to stay below this unless you use 128480 to get the same result with a scale 2 & keep doubling for futher scaling.Anyway not suggesting your settings aren't working I was just curious. -

netmasta : Might as well leave it no flaming going on.There might be some more posts. -
I didn't see the link before the snip I'm guessing it was an UPS "uninterupted power supply". I think most of the victims would have rather had one of these instead.I am in no way involved with selling this product I am posting the link as an example but this is probably the best know company for these filters.Not the seller but the manufacturer Katadyn http://www.rei.com/online/store/Search?brand=Katadyn&langId=-1&storeId=8000&link=1&cm_ven=ps_overture&suppressSearchHeaderDisplay=1&cm_ite=katadyn&source=14526&cm_pla=brand_katadyn&cm_cat=camping-hiking

billybob12345 : Being in school is ancient times for me.But I understand the problem with bomb but it should apply to teachers as well.When I was in school we still had atomic bomb drills like that would have done any good. My freshman year of school my hair in back had to be above a regular collar shirt & taper cut to register .I tried 3 times to get by with a blocked cut & couldn't.(A blocked cut was a strait across cut still above the collar but not tapered)So pretty strict by todays standards.that would have been 1967..Girls still couldn't wear pants to school that wasn't too bad some short minis during that time.It loosened up some by 1971 -

billybob12345:I will give my opinion A lot of school boards have some pretty sorry rules.Unless you can afford a lawyer you are stuck with their interpretation.So in the school district you are talking about that may be the rule. Let it be the star quarterback on either side of the situation & you will see the rules applied differently. Now to discuss law instead of school board policies.In general words should never provoke a fight & your only legal way is to respond back with words.Whoever throws the first punch is usually guilty of assault.There are exceptions like if you have reasonable expectation the other person is going to punch you.If they have made a verbal threat to hit you for example or the already have their fist drawn back then you can throw the first punch & it is still self defense.But you better have witnesses. There have been some court decisions that certain racial slurs are enough to provoke assault.I don't agree with this.It opens up a defense to respond to any word a person doesn't like.Because why should one person be allowed to attack when a word offends him & another not be allowed to decide another word offends him just as much.These decisions are bad law & will eventually be over ruled. -
I do use the Kaspersky Anti-Virus Web Scanner Beta version 5.0.50.0 http://www.kaspersky.com/beta?product=161744315 When I use this online scan it has never found a virus in my PC so unless this Kaspersky online scanner doesn't find the viruses its other antivirus that you have in your os does then the AVG is finding & stopping the viruses that try to get into my system.It might not at questionable sites. I web surf where ever I have need to & will deal with viruses if I get them.So for now I will keep using AVG.

DL the MS patch in Swimmers link & follow the other instructions.If it is still detected then try running your AV in safe mode always a good idea when you have a virus that's hard to remove.While there it's also a good idea to run your anti spyware program.
-
I have AVG & haven't had any virus it couldn't handle .I did have 2 that it had to remove from safe mode.I also ocassionally check mt PC with the Kaspersky online scanner it has never found a virus so for me AVG is working.But that doesn't mean it does for everyone.

I don't like Camembert , Brie ,Limburger I think they stink.I like most other cheese & I'm not lactose intolerent . I think Elite.Pete should just stick around.I think the one that made the trouble has already left or registered under a different name. -

netmasta : I understand getting the BIOS form the manufacturer of the PC or mobo.I put that in as a alternative to the $70. one you found at the official site. I agree with resopalrabotnick unless you know the new BIOS will do something the old one doesn't & you need your PC to do that it would be best to just use the older one.

MttFrog13:Check this topic & the others linked in it in my posts in this topic below: http://www.testmy.net/forum/index.php?topic=7294.msg69853#msg69853 http://www.testmy.net/forum/index.php?topic=7808.0 Apply the tweaks that will work in your OS .They may help some aol is in its own little world so a different ISP might help if thats possible.At lot of dialup speed depends on your distance to the telco(terminal) for the phone line the dial up is on. If you are close enough there is some DSL that is less that aol dial up .But if your uncle is going to use dial up try the tweaks.

netmasta: If you don't find it at Trigem I think I found one that may be correct at: http://driverguide.com/ You have to register for a free membership before you can DL .These are the links to the DL but I'm sure you have to be a member & login before they will work. http://members.driverguide.com/index.php?companyid=1075&devicetypeid=1&action=wizard_step_3&company=1075&Submit=%A0%A0SELECT+COMPANY%A0%3E%3E%A0%A0 http://members.driverguide.com/driver/detail.php?driverid=143922

netmasta:The link below just shows several e machines use Trigem mobo.There could be some info to help Identify it further. http://www.e4me.com/support/view_faq.html?faq=1004986892#3 Since your current BIOS is Phoenix have you tried their site to see if they have the update?

I taped the movie I plan to watch it tonight. In rasoplarabotnick's link I heard one of the children say America twice at least I think I did but the subtitles didn't show it. http://www.compfused.com/directlink/903/ This is not going to be a popular view but any American soldier that makes the mistake of not viewing these children soldiers as the enemy & just as dangerous is going to get killed by the child soldier.A mistake that has already cost Our troops their lives & probably will continue because we fail to train our soldiers to kill the enemy regardless of their age.An armed child soldier is the enemy. We made this mistake in Viet Nam too.Then when the soldiers took the situation into their own hands they prosecuted them. The My Lai massacre for example.Or the My Lai killing the enemy pretending to be friendly civilians.Depends on your point of view.

I will agree that whereever Muslims are they will try to take over.Many of the nations that have had terrorist attacks have a fairly large Muslim population.These probably trace their religious leadership back to the middle east.The terrorist attacks started when the middle east started to be westernized.I don't know for sure if backing off & letting the Muslims run the Middle East like they did would work.It might be like shutting the barn door after the horse is out.But it wouldn't work any worse for the rest of the world.The only other solution would be to eliminate all the Muslims & nobody likes that solution. I understand the concept of MAD I just don't believe the leaders we have in the USA now do.Let me know about it again after some terrorists blow up a nuclear reactor in the USA.If they manage to blow up the Pantex plant I probably won't be here to let know of course their might not be any survivors anywhere if they do that. I going to leave it at this my opinions on what I think needs to be done have already been posted.

It is still my opinion that the Muslims would fight among themselves instead of going elsewhere. I haven't heard of them doing terrorist acts in Australia.Greenland,Canada,Japan or a lot of others. I still say if you build nukes you have to use them at least once in a while so there is fear of the USA doing this.Thats the point.No country fears the USA will nuke them.So the build them so we won't have to use them doesn't hold water.So I say don't build them with no intent to use them.They perceive this as cowardly because the Muslim terrorists would use nukes if they had them. Yes pull all of our troops home.They are closing bases in America.When we have an emergency like Katrina we don't have enough troops here to take care of the emergency.Most of our National Guard are also in foreign countries too.How about having them here at the service of American taxpayers since we are paying for them.It costs us to have them in foreign countries who only want the bases because they boost their economy.If we wanted them to pay all the cost of the bases & give us some profit too like Businesses here do Americans.The foreign countries would tell the USA to get the bases out of their countries. The UN should be moved out of the USA so we are not tied together so close.Move to Switzerland so the USA could just be one member country if we wanted to Or pull completely out if we wanted to.

Where Were You or What Were You Doing on 9/11/2001?
cholla replied to monsnet2k8's topic in General Discussion
I posted what I was doing when the topic first came out. Right now I'm listening to The Last Hour of Flight 11 on the history channel.The people in coach didn't even now there was anything wrong to keep them from panicing.What they were told is there was a medical emergency.This prevented them from deciding for themselves to do something to the hijackers. The passengers in business & first class knew because thats where the hijackers were seated before they headed for the cabin. -
