Oh yeah! Once you get it figured out, you'll wonder how you got along without it. :)

I am the biggest tech dork. I dont even know how to use my remote control properly and my cell phone does not even have caller ID or voice mail (at least not that I have figured out) and as far as computers, well, I used to let hubby do all of that, but now I have to since he died. I wish I tried harder to learn it when he tried to show me.

Mom and dad have a cellphone from Verizon. After their initial contract ran out, they renewed it and got a new free phone that had alot of bells and whistles on it, including a camera, text messaging, voice mail, e-mail, and web. My brother in law sent them a voice mail, and mom couldn't figure out how to get into their voice mail box, so she called customer service and they automatically routed them to their voice mail for them. LOL

All my brother in law said in their voice mail was "Hello". LOL

The "Local Settings" folder is a hidden folder. Open "My Computer" click on "Tools" then "Folder Options", then click the tab labeled "View" and make sure "Show hidden files and folders" is checked or ticked. Click the "Apply" button, then click "OK" and you'll see hidden files and folders in a lighter shaded text from files and folders that are not hidden.

since it is not working from here anyway, guess I should "hide" them again so I dont accidentally mess up something? How do I go about that?

I am turning laptop back on to try this, turned off due to other error that said try restarting computer....


Anyway, another annoying thing is McAfee can not be fully uninstalled, since it also has AVG on the compuer and they fight with each other and a message comes up everytime I boot the computer that some components of Active Shiled are either missing or might not have been installed properly. well, duh, they were supposed to be removed, but it wont let me do that. Is there a work around for this?

You can find out how to uninstall McAfee. You have to manually remove the remaining files. Start with step 10. That will show you how to remove them.

About 10 years ago and still it is very popular for ladies in their 20s and 30s to have small roses or cartoon characters on shoulder blades or inside top of leg.

A little rosebud on the shoulder is OK but anything more no however I do not think I would want to go through that pain for something I could just have as a transfer and wash off when I got fed up with it.

Nowadays in Britain soccer players have these sort of ops routinely and are often back playing in a few weeks some less than a month. Whereas a few years back it almost certainly meant end of career and often a stiff leg - modern medicine has advanced so much in knee and leg surgery and rehabilitation.

I have data on my computers that go back to 1990 I have always pulled my data from one machine to another.

My new machine is working great so shortly I will bring my back up data drive from the previous one over so I have all my old data and a hard drive to use to back up.

At present I am working with 2 machine (P4 1.6Gb) and my new one (2.3AMD).
