Who doesn't like Harry PotHead? I see you've checked out my-space should come around and play some cards sometime. Perhaps help me pay for a satellite connection While on the subject about satellite I was getting connect speeds of 45 till I went around unplugging phone cords and such and found that my satellite box was also plugged into a phone jack popped that baby out scrambled to the comp. dialed up and it boosted my speed to 46 not much difference but inch by inch it's a cinch right? My modem driver is updated although not really up-to-date. Don't believe it is my modem I went out and bought 2 USR modems recently one internal the other external both lowered my connect speeds for some reason down to 36 and 33 sometimes even lower. So I re-turned them and got my $change$ back. My current CableNut settings are your recommend ones but I get hammered with a ton of errors that I know has to be slowing me down somewhat if not alot. w/o them I do not receive any errors any suggestions? As for my distance from me to my switching office the site came up saying unknown lol must be pretty darn far I'll give them a call in a bit and see what they say After looking over the software I may d/l through Trend I'm limited on what I may get. To bad the firewall is one of those limitations. So I went with McAfee figured it would be better than Symantec. If it's free for a year and I can renew it over again for free why not? If not I can always switch over Alright time for me to go check my traps lol mite b havin possum stew fer lunch u all err welcome to come on over ya her

Okay this is really a two part question there is a isp offering a 2 week free trial for there service the Addy is http://www.eskimo.com/newuser.html I believe they are located in WA <---- ( Near you ROM-DOS ) I signed up for it because I can use DUN instead of using NetZero's heavy software bogging me down Well low and behold I still connect at 46 and I receive the same d/l - upload speeds with both services. Guess I was thinking I'd see at least a small improvement with the Eskimo service but I see none at all any help would be great thanks. Part 2: I have access to a FREE 1years subscription available to renew over & over. To the following: eTrust PestPatrol ( any good ?), Symantec and all their software, McAfee and all there software and Trend Micro all software. (Don't worry not illegal) I'm not looking for an AntiVirus for I use AVG Which gives the best protection against attacks Symantec or McAfee?

What service provider do you use? You can try out ROM-DOS's recommended CableNut setting http://www.testmy.net/forum/index.php?topic=9723.0

Unless they can provide DSL to my tree stand im stuck with dial up

Has anyone tryed out Verizon's dial up?

I recently removed EZ Firewall ( Z A ) so I'm using XP's firewall. Ran all the test everything came out squeaky clean. So why not go with XP's firewall?

no prob glad could help btw did a seach in google on ( gmail invites) here were the results 1 - 10 of about 1,970,000 for gmail invites. (0.12 seconds) seems there are many more sites out there offering them now

i sent one out to you amc. i too have 99 left i believe when it first came out there was a website offering invites not sure what the addy was though

Have you tryed out FireTune? I really can't believe how much my browsing speed has increased. I have to say this is defiantly a must for dial up

I'll give'm a shot tommorow

I've recently made the change from IE6 to FireFox and I have to say it's kicks a$$. Has not made any improvements towards my DL/UPLoad though. Other than that my browsing speed RoCkS!! (Super fast) Anyone know of some great tweaks for it? I have FasterFox installed thats about it. Thanks Long Live FireFox

Tested using XP's FireWall: FILE SHARING YOUR computer has DELIBERATELY CHOSEN NOT TO RESPOND (that's very cool!) which represents advanced computer and port stealthing capabilities. A machine configured in this fashion is well hardened to Internet NetBIOS attack and intrusion. COMMON PORTS Your system has achieved a perfect "TruStealth" rating. Not a single packet

So pretty much what I explained to you right? As long as it's working Great!! You really should look into using a 3rd party Firewall though.

If you dont have a 3rd party Firewall, you may want to check out Kerio Personal Firewall 4. It's FREE so if you dont have the $Cash$ it's a winner. http://www.kerio.com/kpf_download.html

Ok check and make sure Network Connections, Remote Procedure Call (RPC) , Windows Management Instrumentation and Event Log are all set to Auto. If not do so then click apply hit Ok and restart your computer see if that helps

DO NOT Disable this if you don't use a 3rd party firewall Although this service may cause problems on

Hello stylinwiley I suggest going to services click start go to run and type services.msc from there scroll down till you see windows firewall/internet connection sharing (ics) right click on it and choose properties under start up type choose automatic now click apply then OK and restart your computer see if that works

Is it safe to delte all of my downloaded program files? I think I have alot of extra junk there that I do not use anymore but want to delete them all.

I sometimes receive a message Warning: gethostbyaddr(): Address is not a valid IPv4 or IPv6 address in /home/testmyn/public_html/main.php on line 64 Was wondering if anyone knew what this means also how it can be corrected thanks

Easy Way to Adjust LargeSystemCache Normally, the tweak I've seen asks you to go into HKLMSystemCurrentControlSetControlSession ManagerMemory Management and change the value to either O or 1 to the adjustment the LargeSystemCache. However, in Windows XP, all you have to do is: 1. Right click My Computer 2. Select Properties 3. Click Advanced 4. Choose Performance 5. Click Advanced again 6. Select either Programs or System Cache under Memory Usage. Programs = 0 for the registry tweak equilavent System Cache = 1 for the registry tweak equilavent From arstechnica.com: On NT Server (in this case XP), the Large System Cache option is enabled, but disabled on Workstation. The two different settings effect how the cache manager allocates free memory. If the Large Cache option is on, the manager marks all the free memory, which isn't being used by the system and/or applications, as freely available for disk caching. On the flip-side (with a small cache), the manager instead only sets aside 4MB of memory for disk caching in an attempt to accelerate the launch of applications. Or in a more technical approach, if enabled the system will favor system-cache working sets over process working sets (with a working set basically being the memory used by components of a process).

I got a call eairlier from a freind she old me this and I have no clue can anyone help out? Is it possible to have separate Netscape and Mozilla profiles? So that NS doesn't see the Mz ones and vice versa? NS doesn't have the *dont ask as startup* option Mz does, and the NS ppl are messing up my profile on the shared PC. (everyone else uses IE)
