thanks for the link Shugs , I got a friend (really ,but not many though ) that has 72 items in start up, and she was complaing about slow boot and shut down , Yeah it's a family puter , and used by several teenagers , lol ,I spend to much time sorting out this puter , so autoruns will be given a try , Thanks Roco UK

I like senic wallpaper,countries and places I have never been to , and probably never will , most tourist offices around the world have wallpaper pictures of great scenery, I also use M/S wallpaper changer , so I get a new desktop wallpaper ever day,

Hi tommie , sorry it's a negative on sending my pic, send one of Madona , I can do a good inpersonation of her , so that wont be a problem , and that would cover the Lear jet angle , about a year or so back I followed a post on a internet security forum , where the guy scammed the scammers , and got some money out of them , they thretend him and his family, and they found his address and paid a visit , and took a picture of themselves outside his house as proof of their threats , LOL dim or what , perfect mug shot for the police ,

A married couple in their sixties

, fill the bubble and win big TMN bucks , contact shugs for details of how to claim ,

, I had to Google the Polaris ATV , LOL, your mum sounds like my kinda girl , I am same age , and still ride a dirt bike whenever I can borrow one , and unlike Tommie I have no desire to go in my sleep ,well maybe in bed but not asleep dn0, I think your folk have a good few years to go yet , so don't worry that never solves anything , and is kind of self destructive , and does nobody any good , a parents wish for their children , above all is that they are happy , wealth, position , posesions don't grantee that IMO I just had a vision of Shugs , as big chief sitting bullS***t , wearing boxers , Yeah, I guess I will have to up the medication

Hi dn0, listen up to someone older than you , LOl nearly twice , you think you may have a fault in being too selfish at your age ! it's good to see your folks when you can and they will appreciate that , but you have your life to lead,no parent wants there child to live in their shadow , so lighten up , if and when the time comes you will cope , maybe it won't go that way, maybe it will be worse , and just maybe you will need help at that time, these are all maybes , don't let it cloud your life now , Enjoy just my random thoughts Regards Roco P.S. you are right , No cruelty intended Shug - you da' man!

you could be right on that, he looks the type of guy that could use some more lead in his pencil

:2funny: I am available in PM (explanation )

m Hi dlewis23 and Guy's, anyone else had this problem with the switch from CRT, I developed bad headaches after the switch ,I tried all their brightness adjustments etc, and left the computer alone for a few days, I found some comments on the internet , that indicated that I was not alone with this problem , it was suggested the headaches would go after about 2 weeks and sure enough they did, the headache was centred at the back of the eyes, anyone else noticed this ? my monitor BenQfp 71 G+ just curious, and no problems since

Oh and there I was thinking you was a short middle aged asian , it must be the way you talk or walk , your own office ! padded cell more like

Hi Tommie , I am still worrying about that poor lady who is frigile , I am not sure if she means fragile or frigid , I just hope she finds someone to share all that money before it is to late , your TRICO.scheme bro , in essence it sounds good , I will run it past my lawyer , as soon as he gets out of being detained at his majesties pleasure , strange term that we use , allways thought our Royals had a cruel streak , but all cheques sent directly to me are allways a sign to me of good faith and warmly received , yeah sign me up Bro

$300 good for a second machine about

Cruel BTW Shugs has my respect for his job , about the hardest thats going in my book

guessed I was looking at a gaming machine spec, nice to have +and every day machine Linux for me is a foreign country , and my entry visa got turned down me

Buntz , looks like you got it well covered , firewall ? just curious BTW nice spec'd machine you have there ,

avg anti-spyware(ewido) missed Zbot , spybot search and destroy didn't ! on a puter I was sorting out , My list of anti-malware progs AVG antivirus sygate 5.5 firewall (not ver.6 known to be bugy ) ad-aware spybot s&d spywareblaster c-cleaner to tidy up , and thanks to coknuck ,an Hi-Jack this check up , well, all free , and have kept me out of trouble (so far )

Great news , looks like you found the culprit well you could do that , as you must have an antivirus on , but my feeling is that it will do it again , but hope not , but at least you will know the cause , BTW Grisoft AVG free is a good antivirus sorry cant be more helpfull on the SBC yahoo Anti-virus/Anti-Spyware. never used it ,

Ok , I take it you rebooted and went straight to task manager without starting any programs ? if so that that 850 is still way high , , have you recently added a firewall/antivirus , or a new program that runs at start up ? for Xp you have enough memory , just adding more pf space is masking the problem , when did you first notice this problem , I have seen high use on those levels with Sygate firewall 6 and zone alarm before , sure slows the computer almost to a standstill ,

Hi ice51, How long had the computer been running since last reboot/startup ? try rebooting then go straight to task mamager , and check again , I never seen a pf useage of 1 .87 Gb, before , its normaly around 250-300Mb , I see you have 35 processes runing which is about right , The page file is normaly around 3x Ram, in your case 1.5Gb should be ample , I think you have a memory leak in a program you are running , next time it happens check mem. usage in task manager >processes ,> look down the list and try to find the one using bucket full's of memory

LOL late again , happy birthday Just Bro, UK good luck and many more oh yeah .........party on the pier ?............. or under

Hi Tommie , exactly my view , 11 months back , then my good old HP monitor died, so bite the bullet time, I found I could get lcd for the same money as crt , no gaming for me but I do some photo stuff, and could do with some more real; estate on the desk, for dinner , coffee , etc, and the occasional naked female ( I wish, ) I got a Benq fp71g+ , nah, I would not go back to CRT now, it is running fine, and no sign of my bigest fear, dead pixels, and crystal clear still ,

Hi Tommie , I think I am eligible I am motherless,and less privileged thanks for the lead , as Mrs.King has a UK e-mail Addy so that gives me a head start on you guys My only concern is she is using a lawyer and not a normal solicitor as the UK + money is quoted in $ not

Hi resopalrabotnick, From a BMW to a 2CV I don't think I F1NAL I ,would be too impressed I would not recommend anyone owning a 2CV, unless they were deranged, there are cars and there are 2CV's , a totally different kettle of fish, 2CV's in the States, yeah there is a 100 or so and there is a Club for them , http://www.citroen-ca.com/profile.html , they sell up to $10000, in UK for around $3750 for a good one , but finding a good one would be the problem , I guess only around 200 or so , and no more than 4000 cars on the road , the up side is, spares are plentiful and cheap , but not from Citroen, they washed their hair of them years back , and sent all the stock spares to the crusher , I go with the old mercedes S class diesels. option

Hi I F1NAL I , there now seems some confusion over the engine problem , in the UK 1996 cars are certainly affected , but your American market car may have a different engine = ? "The US version of the M52 engine has an iron block instead of the euro alloy version.2 I think you need to be sure of the engine type , the affected engines have a alloy block the good ones are cast iron, but as others have said if you have major problems, the repair could be more than the value of the car I still wouldn't buy the car , and go along with resopalrabotnick's comments , I think your poll results prove our thoughts on this car , 14-1 against , So if you buy the car and find it is a turkey , you cant come back and complain , you will get a chorus of "WE TOLD YOU SO " Yeah, life can be a bitch at times regards Roco UK
