There seems to be a big bug with the installer, if you try to resize an NTFS partition (to create a new partition from the free space) your NTFS partition becomes corrupted. http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=186395

It was the worst firewall I ever used. Had a lot of problems with it myself. I only tried it because I wanted a 'light' firewall, then I found Winpooch which did what I wanted, although its not for everyone.

I've been so busy playing with this, I forgot to post about it. http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/get.html http://digg.com/linux_unix/25_tips_to_get_...ed_with_Dapper_ Best distro yet imho!

@DL I havent used Picasa in a while, but I believe you can tell it to only monitor selected folders.

have you tried putting your microsoft word/office cd in when starting word?

^ copy and paste error?

@theroc61 sounds like you got some spyware on your pc. WMP has always been free and never had a trial period. please go download and run adaware and spybot search destroy. And if your problems persist create a new topic here: [url="http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showforum=114"]http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showforum=114[/url]

yup picasa is pretty nice software. good for simple photo editing and managing collections.

FileZilla is good, I also use FTPRush.

thanks for the good news

well it depends. you said you wanted to hide open ports, with a NAT Router outsiders generally cannot see any 'details' about your internal network they can only see the router. however a router generally will not provide application filtering and stop your computer from leaking if it was hijacked in some manner say by a trojan. a combination of the two is a good defense. I personally just use my NAT SPI Router. Although I like Kaspersky IS6 and sometimes Winpooch because its a light and simple firewall.

i think by definition you are asking for a firewall. what about hardware, say a router?

wow how did I miss this

i guess you're lucky I did not properly understand you. You've been warned. Topic closed. MSFN Forum Rules

nice tip @XP_2600 I'll have to try that. BTW in XnView you can customize the height/width of thumbnails from 32x32 to 2048x2048

that was posted over two years ago...

Nod32 and Kaspersky have very good detection rates and use minimal system resources.
