The reason for adopting the website realmartha.com is to focus on the fact that celebrity turned felons are making a mockery out of our United States criminal justice system. Celebrities feel that they are above the law, and are often treated with “kid gloves” when it comes to sentencing and probationary handlings. The typical US citizen lives with the belief justice and fairness under the law apply to ALL. One does not control the judicial system with money and status, the judicial system makes and enforces the law! Mistakes are acknowledged and experience is gained. Crimes are tried and punished....

I was looking at the computer of a user who has Windows 2000, in the hope of setting her up to get Windows updates semi-automatically (that is, she gets the updates automatically, then chooses which ones to install). I found, however, that she has no control panel icon for "automatic updates." Furthermore, when I click on the "windows update" link on the left side of the control panel window, I see a message that says that apparently a person must be logged in as adminstrator to get updates. That seems really inconvenient. Therefore, can she do automatic updates at all,...

Here is the description: "Broadcom Corporation modem software update released on August 27 2003" Anyone else get this? Why would modem software be considered a 'Critical Update'? And what about the release date? There is no explanation either.
