  1. You could try this it is an automatic hijackthis results analyzer It will guide you in what to eliminate.Just make sure you have your system restore or backup in case you remove something you need. http://www.hijackthis.de/
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. Basically the NDT web 100 test.Here are the results on my 56K dial-up modem.Its the first time one of these showed my speed in Mb/s.I have a link for several NDT tests http://e2epi.internet2.edu/ndt/ndt-server-list.html TCP/Web100 Network Diagnostic Tool v5.2.0f click START to begin Checking for Middleboxes . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
  6. Here are some images. 1. Wrangler not the commerative still available new in 1992. 2. Commerative box set Approxamate value $5000 3.picture of John Wayne with his Winchester Large loop he had these custom modified for him.Before Winchester made the Wrangler model.Or Chuck Conners Rifleman rifle.
  7. scabs : I think from what the broadband reports showed you RWIN is too large..You get the most accurate results with the larger tests.
  8. raptors892004:yea I went & checked it too.No negative feedback I don't know what happened to it.naybe the seller was able to get it removed by ebay. milchama: No I have an antique Winchester rifle .The commeratives like the John Wayne are limited editions put out for a short time.I don't own a one of the commeratives there are several commerating different things like the Chief Crazy Horse & the Boy Scouts & several others.The best place to find one would be at gun shows but you would have to watch for fakes there too.Winchester still makes a non commerative simular to the John Wayne .It has the larger loop lever & is short I think it is the Wrangler model.
  9. theGODl337 : Ok I accept the apology.No bad feelings. I call it protectionism but this only varies a little from isolationism.I don't beleive it would have hurt us unless you are saying the USA would not have advanced technologically if we had adopted an isolationist policy say after WW2.Since most of the science & ideas for advancing technology have came from the USA I think its the rest of the world that would have been left behind.I think we would have worked harder to devolope alternative energy sources instead of becoming dependent on foreign oil. On the USA entering WW2 since thats what we did its hard to say what our outcome would have been if we hadn't.Europes outcome would have been different.I still think the government knew Japan was coming to attack .I don't think they knew the loss of life would be as high as it was in Pearl Harbor but knew this would get us into the war.Maybe we should have just declared war on Japan & concentrated all our effort there.But since thats not the way it was it doesn't mean Isolationism wouldn't be the best policy now.If we had adopted it before 1990 the WTC would probably still be standing.
  10. I looked at it I don't remember why but decided it wasn't what I wanted.
  11. raptors892004 : this is the free version. http://www.agnitum.com/products/outpostfree/index.php
  12. dn0; Castro may have an ulterior motive.So what do you think hes going to do with 150 doctors.Start germ warfare? I doubt it so let them in a good will jesture.Castro can't live for ever.Things are already a lot loser between the USA & Cuba than they were during the Cuban missle crisis of the 60's. Btw keep his doctors busy it might keep them from cloning Castro.I could be wrong maybe Castro could live forever.
  13. helloimtim:This is not exactly on topic .I use an internal winmodem with my dialup.I tried an external hardware modem that was supposed to be better & faster but it wasn't.So use what works best for your connection.Other that tests does it do other things as fast like load pages or DL software or other DL's that are not tests.
  14. I agree with helloimtim on this one.I think we should take all the help offered from foreign countries .It would give them a chance to pay back the USA for a little of the foreign aid. Probably even to Cuba at one time.So take the help.
  15. I won't go into this as I have posted it before. I would like to see the USA adopt a protectionist policy.I think minding our own business would make us less hated by the middle east & Islam.It is right they are not attacking Canada or Mexico or a lot of other Christian countries. FallowEarth: I should know this but i don't you probably do.Does Canada have troops in Iraq?This is not to say they should because I don't think the USA should. vemzetti8 : I'm not sure you have the numbers on the terrorists exactly correct.I didn't go find them but I thought Saudi Arabia & Egypt were about even on the amount.Most of the terrorists from those 2 countries. I take a different stance on Iran.When they took the US embassy that was an act of war & should have been treated like it was.I know supposedly the terrorists acted on their own without Iran's government support.I think thats some real propaganda.I think we should have nuked Iran back then .The 52 American hostages would have been declared soldiers & be the only Americans that would have died in Iran.I guess there might have been some workers but I think we got all of them out. I almost always get no don't use nukes.Well don't worry the US government isn't going to.And they won't be letting me give the order to.So its just my opinion.To any opposed my question is:Why build nuclear bombs if we aren't going to use them? They are only a deterrent if our enemies fear we will use them & obviously they don't.Nuclear bombs have only been used in war to bomb the 2 Japanese cities then never again. I have a valid position on this since I live near Pantex the main Nuclear Weapons assembly & disassembly plant in the USA.They also store the waste from the disassembled ones there.If the citizens in my area are to be exposed to this then there should be a reason.If they are just a threat we could just say we are building them but not have any real ones .That way there would be no danger to people in my area.Because lets face it if it was exposing me & others they wouldn't tell us.
  16. raptors892004 : I guess I did just say I tried it .Yes I am currently using Outpost. It tests to block all ports on the sheilds up test.I doesn't have the graphs like the sygate & you can't do backtrace with it .So it lacks some of the bells & whistles.But it is doing what a firewall is for.
  17. raptors892004: I had Sygate & liked it but it just stopped working at least its control screen..I tried everything I could think of to get it to work.DLed installed & uninstalled.It would no longer work.No help from the Sygate site.The point of this is I decided to try Outpost. Outpost tests as well for blocking ports. It will drive you a little crazy at first asking for what you want to do with sites you visit.But once it settles down it seems to work pretty well.
  18. Hyperspace: Here are a couple of links to video game music. The first one you can listen to several video game songs. http://www.vgmusic.com/ This second one is Video game music radio the play video game songs so you can listen while on your pc you might hear the song. http://radio.emulationzone.org/ Edit there are several stations I selected the VGmusicradio FM in the mini station listing box at the bottom of it there is detailed listing click on it & it will show the song now playing. They also had a forum you might post the song there like you did here.
  19. Hyperspace I gave it a listen but didn't recogniz it. Could it be from a video game ?
  20. You probably need to find & DL the correct driver for your display adapter.To see if Windows has it you could try System Properties Device manager Display adapter .Select properties See if it lists the correct adapter for your PC.If it does try & let windows automatically install the correct driver. If you want to install your own but don't have the disk Browse to CABs or Options Install file the driver may be there.Select this as the disk.& follow instructions from there. Also try this first R click on your desktopselect propertiessettings check the color dropdown see if you have setting there other that 16 bit.If you do select on of the other options & try it.
  21. I mostly posted to coment on the guest name . Mr stumpywang & you have our sympathy. on the topic I guess its only for XP.My ME control panel doesn't have Administrative Tools but sounds like something to check.
  22. I was going to post in a topic that was going this direction but it was locked at the member that started the topics request.Which is a good reason to lock a topic. I have no problem with that. I just wanted to tell my experience with reporting a seller.I bought the same poster from the same seller in the link below.She has changed the wording on the description some but still leads you to believe it is the original 1980 to 81 poster.It is a reproduction.I bought one & still have it.It is a good reproduction.My has the yellow letters that she now says the poster doesn't have.So she sells what she can get printed.I think the original had white.I started reporting this to her & Ebay about a year ago.With no results as you can see the poster is still being sold.I then reported it to Winchester as a trademark violation.The email I got back from Winchester is below.Since the poster is still being sold the reporting did little good.Ebay will let sellers by with almost anything.I still buy from Ebay sellers & by far the majority of items I have purchased have been as advertised.But if there not about the best you can get is a refund usually withyou losing the shipping you paid.So report if you want to but in my case it was a waste of time with no results & didn't cause the seller any problems .I did put in a negative feedback but I haven't checked to see if its still there.

  23. I just wanted to say it is the American people that have stepped in & are taking care of things.The government response has still been inadequate to say the least.This is not the case with the people in communities that are taking in victims each helping the ones sent to them get back on their feet.Volunteers going to the area to help.Some meeting red tape before being allowed to .
  24. Is that his personal wealth? Or including MS btw I didn't check
