Actually, 5299 was the warez release. The one Microsoft was hopping mad about. Forced MS to release the official one in a hurry, which was 5296. Little behind the dodgy one.

A number of strategic acquisitions for Microsoft that make sense, and, cost relatively little, would be: Buy the parent company that develops Xara Xtreme, a small yet powerful vector based application to produce scalable in house and packaged Windows based applications. Moving from bitmap to vector makes sense, yet, needs to be consumer friendly. Xara Xtreme provides the basis for that understandability, unlike, say, the complex Expression program and purchase. As far as including a bitmap program with Windows and an image editor, an outright purchase of version 5 or 6 of Ulead PhotoImpact would be most suitable. Easy to use immediately for the novice, yet powerful picture editing, scaling, and compact saving of images. (Including with frames.) The benefits to Ulead from selling outright an old version of it's program to be included with Windows is enormous exposure, and, the opportunity to provide a richer experience to the user with paid for updated Ulead products. Acquisition of the parent company producing 'CrazyTalk' would not only complement MS Agent, but provide integrated system help capabilities beyond what anyone has previously experienced before. A more personal, personal, assistant. Not to mention the personalized photographic possibilities for the Windows email user. Distance the company from online search and proceed through a subsidiary if possible. There will always be suspicion that 'Microsoft is watching you ..' with a branded search product. You need to move the search out of Redmond and stand it alone. If you are unable to do Google, or get AltaVista from (I think) Yahoo, then start a new brand. Say 'Puffin'. Hey Yahoo and Google are odd and catchy. But I think overall online search may be a dead loss to Microsoft. So, all in all .. let's make some sensible decisions in the future, and, please, feel free to take issue with any of the above explicates.. And Mary had a little lamb.. they're coming to take me away ha, ha, to the funny farm..

I may live in a Banana Republic, (256K Bigpond wireless broadband) but I DON'Tlive in a third world toilet because:::: I don't drive a Mercedes-Benz. I don't drive anything with TOYOTA embossed on the rear carrying 16 armed very excitable men with AK-47's, and a very large anti aircraft gun. I don't have access to satellite communications. I don't have a credit card. I don't have a mobile phone. I don't need to dig a well. I don't own a AK-47 assault rifle. I cannot afford the ammunition. I have a flush toilet. I don't know where to buy an RPG. (Rocket propelled grenade.) In every direction I look, there is not a Coca-Cola or Avis Rent-a-Car sign.

Hates image background, say, through Tweak UI or X-Setup Pro. That is under the Tabs. But it's beta. .mht open of previous versions not showing images, which is a problem as .mht is only used by MS. It's the one thing missing from Firefox - that would finally make FF the killer app. No option to select start New Tab with Home Page loaded - or - Blank. Which is funny because I had MS, I think, JKIE C# browser example, and it does open Home Page in each New Tab. Only thing that has a background in Windows is Media Player 10 (If you can work out how to use Play lists, you can probably use a VCR!) Anyway chopped a bit out with Irfanview, you know, the new version 3.98 that has the option to install Google Desktop Search. (Which they probably paid thousands or millions for.) It is the best freeware image viewer ever. One guy that Microsoft missed out on nine-years-ago. This looks good as a Firefox, Explorer and Outlook Express background also.. I can't find my notes on the other problems, must have deleted, as I don't have it anyway.. I'm here right now with Firefox 1.5 and Extension InFormEnter. (Which I MUST HAVE.) Oh, I know... ieSpell got killed. May need to be reinstalled if I can find it and if I had the browser. We will never know. [Lucky I have SpellBound for FF.]

I understand. It would be wise not to get it now anyway. It does not have it's make-up on, so I've been told by two guys I meet down an alley.. [i was just taking a shortcut home!] It's just if you stop to see an accident, can you be arrested for looking? Funny thing is, if you do a search on MSN, (or ninemsn in Aust. They partner Channel Nine TV) you get only one link - to this very page in MSFN Forums.

Works for me!! Your page looks OK. But .. .. it's a dud! [browser not your site.] God, who were the guys that did IE 3, and had style, [it was like nothing MS had done before - it was like they hired Apple - it even had a background!] and did it fast. It blew Netscape Navigator away. And wrecked that company. Like it or not. And let's not forget that Netscape Navigator cost over $100 to buy. PS.

It would be OK if members filled in "My Controls" Personal Profile Edit Profile Information "Your Location" Mine says "Western Australia", but if I was in Tasmania, should say Tasmania - Australia. But mousing over the flag with the country would be good. And there are new countries of late.

Do you think this would slow things down? Seems like a good idea. (for security) Is this what MS is going to do with Vista? (Running in some sort of protected enviroment.) I know that running my mail in/out of the AVG7 scanner folders causes some delay. Maybe the ZoneAlarm firewall does too? Sandboxie does seem to have some problems that directly relate to me, or my programs, that are mentioned in the forum.. http://sandboxie.com/phpbb/viewforum.php?f...1aacd9f6e825738 .

Judge for yourself .. Not quite the same. [The toolbar wallpaper I put in with X-Setup Pro.] It's been OK, but you have to right click and tick "Standard Buttons" and "Links" when you first use it. I'm using it now, but for the first time in ages, and I'm not going to the wild side of town tonight. Running out of monthly Mb allotment. [Not that I ever go to the dark side of town.] {Not that there's anything wrong with that.} I think a lot of people had trouble because they tried to install IE7 B1 alongside IE6, just in case - AND we now know that two Internet Explorers on the same PC DO NOT GET ALONG! So, Microsoft pulled the download links that they had allowed to LEAK (by them.) They also had to release some sort of patch. I don't have it; auto-updates on; because I installed over IE6. HELL! You only live once. Take a chance.. ----- Friday, December 16, 2005 2:39 PM IE December Security Update – addressing scattered reports of odd browser behavior We have received scattered reports of users experiencing odd browser behavior after installing our most recent security update. Some of you have reported opening a browser window that promptly hangs IE, others have reported opening links that render blank, and finally we have reports of multiple windows opening when initiating a browser session. After investigating several of these reports, we have traced these issues to a common source. If a user has ever attempted to run IE7 Beta1 in an unsupported side-by-side configuration with a version of IE6, IE7 Beta1 puts a registry key on the machine the first time a user executes the IE7 version of IEXPLORE.EXE. This key is part of an normal IE7 installation on XP, and will not be configured correctly if an unsupported side-by-side install is used. When IE7 is installed using the installer, the key should be removed properly upon uninstall. A machine can also load this registry key and not remove it during a failed IE7 installation. To address this issue on a machine running IE 6 SP1 with our most recent security update, locate and delete this entire key from the registry of the affected machine: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{c90250f3-4d7d-4991-9b69-a5c5bc1c2ae6}. If you are running IE7 Beta1 in a side-by-side scenario with another version of IE, this is not a supported scenario. Please uninstall and reinstall IE7 Beta1 in the recommended manner. Thank you all for your blog comments reporting this incident. Your valuable feedback allowed us to locate this issue in IE7 Beta1 and investigate how to prevent the problem in future. - Jeremy Dallman posted by ieblog with 80 Comments

I'm not referring to the text code (BBCODE) for formatting. I'm referring to how it's displayed on the page. When you wrote that...did you see the [tags] or was it in the form of a WYSIWYG display? Yes, I do see the tags. And it is forum code not true html - my mistake. Has [ ] and not < >. Sorry. Also, I will look for that WYSIWYG display from earlier message.. ---- Smilies provided by Smiley Xtra 4 extension for Firefox v1.5 ----- Edit:::: *I found it as you can plainly see!!!!!

I voted 'Yes'. Do you mean the html format settings. Like what I be using now. Strike me thought As I go up I come down too They have always been there, as far as I know.

Dell will soon offer a high-end XPS 600 Renegade that features a hand-painted case, an overclocked (and warranted) 4.26 GHz Pentium 4 Extreme Edition processor, quad processor SLI graphics and 10,000 RPM Raptor hard drives. Dell now offers a 30-inch LCD for just $2199 (only $1999 with a new PC). It runs at 2560 x 1600.

Thanks for the link. I've been stuffing every acceptable text box and send with - 'why don't you get a forum' for as long as I can remember. And they say old newsgroups are the tech cutting edge. Naturally, they don't have a category for 'Bitching and Moaning'. Nor do they have much else of interest. I mean, Japanese MSDN, ISV Community Center and Visual Studio Team System; Really. Good if you are into their programing languages, or a Vista tester, I suppose. It's a start.. You can learn a lot about your clients by using forums. Look at AVG (Anti-virus). But MS has SO MUCH stuff, and SOOOOooooo many clients. B)

I voted I like it, but I don't use it much anymore. IE 7 Beta 1. I feel MS canceled Xmas because they promised IE7 Beta 2 on 7th December. They must have remembered Pearl Harbor and bombed out! Stinkers. Got ieFrame.dll update (or alternative) from somewhere that makes Beta 1 look more like Vista version. Like using it, but can't now live without my Firefox 1.5 plug ins. Especially InFormEnter. PC World have written IE 7 will have thumbnail views of all open tabs in one view, so I emailed them about foXpose for FF. I'm not sure if this is really useful, or just a flash gimmick. Anyway, there still appears to be serious security flaws in IE. Pity, because I tend to favor it overall. I just can't use it at present.

I think it is code complete now, and running at MS in parallel with the beta released Vista December 2005 CTP Build 5270. Just bug hunting, so, there shouldn't be more than 200 known and 3,000 unknown bugs left when it ships. It will have to go RTM by July to get to system builders and retailers (around the world) by Sept. for the Xmas season. Although their big sales will probably come just after Xmas. One good reason to get it is Virtual Folders. Very interesting way to organize things. Flash Demo But I doubt that they update themselves with the 'Search for..' and 'Keyword'.

I use all three. This seems the best combo. RegClean 4.1a has been around forever, never changed. The Reg Team must be LONG GONE .. It seems to be some type of garbage collector for Windows stuff-ups or bugs. Run it, then restart your PC and run it again. See if the two Reg backup files are of similar size, right click on them and select EDIT to open in Notepad. Check what has been removed from the Reg. Some same things there???? CCleaner I use, but don't know if the Reg part works well. The cleanup of temp garbage does though. Registry Mechanic works extremely well, and it's shocking to know WHAT WINDOWS and OTHERS do to you.. The stinkers. Do you know if you were to download a file to your desktop, then move that file, the REG entry for the desktop file will always be in your Reg!

Did not come with my Acer Notebook, and I've never been happier; for over a year now. <<- Operating equipment without a FLOPPY If I get another desktop, I don't want a floppy. Have BIOS boot from C: to speed up, but can just press F2 and change to DVD-CDRW to boot if required.

Yes. I need to check Bytes TOTAL also, as my ISP charges for UP & DOWN data. (Govt. owned - what can you do. At least it works fairly, rather than false claims.) If Microsoft had just put a SAVE totals on disconnect (even to a simple text file) it would be of better use.

Thanks for the link, I've downloaded it, and will give it a try. Did a page translation with *AltaVista* search Babelfish. Very interesting When you wrote "Not very good ..", that was a bit of a worry. Does it not perform as advertised. Guess I will soon find out!

OFF TOPIC agamogenetic did .. (GOD) It's called DNA. What you do with it is your problem.
