the sounds I hear when I get notified a new e-mail has arrived
Help! How do I control the sounds my laptop makes? Is this
a Yahoo Messenger issue, a Dell issue, IE,Desktop theme,
Windows ME, or what? All I know is I get startled when
I've got Yahoo Messenger open, and then I get notified
when an e-mail has arrived. The noise it makes when
someone has replied to a chat that I've minimized is OK,
but I'd still like to know what my options are regarding
all those sounds.These noises make me nervous.
Thank you very,very much for your help. Tag: ERROR Tag: 212618

Critical updates
Are Windows and IE updates always cumulative? I'm checking for a friend
and the MS page of critical updates shows 43 items for ME. (accessed via
http://v4.windowsupdate.microsoft.com/catalog/en/default.asp ). The list
isn't exactly informative!
He's pretty sure he's had automatic updates from time to time, and the
Windows Update check from the Start Menu says he's OK. But he
reinstalled Windows from his CD a couple of months ago and we are
wondering if the Update checks the product or just the registry or
wherever past actions are recorded.

I am a complete novice and I have suddenly had two error

1)" Ledll has caused an error in IEDLL.EXE, possibly

harmless.....I don't have the know-how to reinstall these
items, so there is only one way, and that is to reinstall

The computer starts up, then suddenly a black screen

Can't delete a folder from the recycle bin
The subject pretty well sums it up. The folder is a sub-folder I deleted

to that effect. I have searched everywhere, even through the registry, for
the shortcut name and can't find it.
What do I need to do to be able to empty the recycle bin? Thanks in advance
