    - Start up About every fourth time I start up the dial up box arrives in the middle of the sreen before norton or any programs have been loaded on the right bottom of screen. At this point the desk top stops loading, sometimes if I cancel the dial up every thing continues OK at other times it goes to the blue screen to say things are unstable and I have to shut down and start up again, which it then does with no problem. This fault with the unwanted dial up only started about 5 weeks ago. I have cleared all cookies and temp internet files in case it was that but no change.

    - $6 into $60,000 in 90 days, GUARANTEED Postal lottery: Turn $6 into $60,000 in 90 days, GUARANTEED A little while back, I was browsing through news groups, just like you are now and came across a message just like this, that said you could make thousands of dollars within weeks with only an initial investment of $6.00!!! So I thought yeah right, this must be a scam!!! But like most of us, I was curious, so I kept reading. Anyway, it said that you send $1.00 to each of the 6 names and addresses stated in the message. You then place your own name and address at the bottom of the list at #6 and post the message in at least 200 news groups. (There are thousands). No catch, that was it. So after thinking it over, and talking to a few people first. I thought about trying it. I figured, what have I got to lose except 6 stamps and $6.00, right? So I invested the measly $6.00!!! Guess what? Within 7 days I started getting money in the mail!!! I was shocked!!! I figured it would end soon, but the money just kept coming in!!! In my first week, I had made about $25.00. By the end of the second week, I had made a total of over $1,000.00!!! In the third week, I had over $10,000.00 and it is still growing!!! This is now my fourth week and I have made a total of just over $42,000.00 and it is still coming in rapidly!!! It's certanly worth $6.00 and 6 stamps!!! I have spent more than that on the lottery!!! Let me tell you how this works and most importantly, why it works!!! Also, make sure you print a copy of this message now. So you can get the information off of it as you need it. I promise you that if you follow the directions exactly, that you will start making more money than you thought possible by doing something so easy!!! Suggestion: Read this entire message carefully!!! (Print it out or download it.) Follow the simple directions and watch the money come in!!! It's easy!!! It's legal!!! Your investment is only $6.00 (plus postage). IMPORTANT: This is not a rip-off!!! It is not illegal!!! ? It is almost entirely risk free and it really works!!! If all of the following instructions are adhered to, you will recieve extraordinary dividends!!! Please note: Follow these directions EXACTLY, and $60,000.00 or more can be yours in 20 to 90 days!!! This program remains successful because of the honesty and the integrity of the participants!!! Please continue its success by carefully adhering to the instructions. You will now become part of the mail order business. In this business your product is not solid or tangible, it is a service. You are in the business of developing mailing lists. Many large corporations are happy to pay big bucks for quality lists. However, the money made from a mailing list is secondary to the income which is made from people like you and me asking to be included on your mailing list!!! Here are the 4 easy steps to success: Step 1: Get 6 seperate pieces of paper and write the following on each piece of paper. PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR MAILING LIST Now get 6 U.S. dollar bills and place ONE inside each of the 6 pieces of paper so the bills will not be seen through the envelopes (to prevent mail theft). Next, place one paper in each of the 6 envelopes and seal them, you should now have 6 sealed envelopes. Each with a piece of paper stating the above phrase, your name and address, and a $1.00 bill. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY LEGAL!!! YOU ARE REQUESTING A LEGITIMATE SERVICE AND YOU ARE PAYING FOR IT!!! Like most of us, I was a little skeptical and a little worried about the legal aspect of it all. So I checked it out with the U.S. Postal Service and they confirmed that it is indeed legal!!! Mail the 6 envelopes to the following addresses: M. Lussier 3112 133A Ave NW Edmonton, AB T5A 2Z8 O. Kutnik 205-237 Auburn DR Waterloo, Ontario N2K 4G9 L. Keneston 7 Southbury Rd. Clifton Park, NY 12065 M. Perfetti 3529 Greenglen Circle Palm Harbor, FL 34684-3018 K. Waller 9343 Redhaven Dr. Sandy, UT. 84094 J. Dagley 619 Northview Greencastle, IN 46135 Step 2: Now take the #1 name off the list that you see above, move the other names up (6 becomes 5, 5 becomes 4, etc.) and add your name as number 6 on the list. Step 3: Change anything you need to, but try to keep this message as close to what you see as possible. Now, post your amended message to at least 200 news groups. I think there are close to 24,000 groups!!! All you need is 200, but remember, the more you post, the more money you make!!! This is perfectly legal!! If you have any doubts, refer to Title18 sec. 1302 & 1341 of the postal lottery laws. Keep a copy of these steps for yourself and whenever you need money, you can use it again. Please remember that this program remains successful because of the honesty and the integrity of the participants and by their carefully adhering to the directions!!! Look at it this way. If you are of integrity, the program will continue and the money that so many others have recieved will come your way!!! Note: You may want to retain every name and address sent to you, either on your computer or hard copy and keep the notes people send you. This verifies that you are truely providing a service. Also, it might be a good Idea to wrap the $1 bills in dark paper to reduce the risk of mail theft. So, as each post is downloaded and the directions carefully followed, six members will be reimbursed for their participation as a list developer with one dollar each. Your name will move up the list geometrically so that when your name reaches the #1 position, you will be receiving thousands of dollars in cash!!! What an opportunity for only $6.00!!! ($1.00 for each of the first six people listed above). Send it now, add your own name to the list and your in business!!! DIRECTIONS FOR HOW TO POST TO A NEWS GROUP!!! Step 1: You do not need to re-type this entire message to do your own posting. Simply put your cursor at the beginning of this message and drag your cursor to the bottom of this message and select copy from the edit menu. This will copy the entire message into the computer memory. Step 2: Open a blank note pad file and place your cursor at the top of the blank page. From the edit menu select paste. This will paste a copy of the message into notepad so that you can add your name to the list. Step 3: Save your new notepad file as a txt file. If you want to do your posting in a different setting, you'll always have this file to go back to. Step 4: Use netscape or Internet Explorer and try searching for various news groups (on-line forums, message boards, chat sites, discussions, etc.) Step 5: Visit these message boards and post this message as a new message by highlighting the text of this message from your notepad and selecting paste from the edit menu. Fill in the subject, this will be the header that everybody sees as they scroll through the list of postings in a particular group. Click the post message button. You've done your first one! Congratulations!!! All You have to do is jump to different news groups and post away, after you get the hang of it, it will take about 30 seconds for each news group! REMEMBER, THE MORE NEWS GROUPS YOU POST IN, THE MORE MONEY YOU WILL MAKE!!!! (But you have to post a minimum of 200). Thats it!!! You will begin receiving money from around the world within days!!! You may eventually want to rent a P.O. Box due to the large amount of mail you will receive. If you wish to stay anonymous, you can invent a name to use, as long as the postman will deliver it. JUST MAKE SURE ALL THE ADDRESSES ARE CORRECT!!! Now the why part. Out of 200 postings, say you recieve only 5 replies (a very low example). So then you made $5.00 with your name at #6 on the letter. Now, each of the 5 persons who sent you $1.00 make the minimum 200 postings, each with your name at #5 and only 5 persons respond to each of the original 5, that is another $25.00 for you. Now those 25 each make 200 MINIMUM posts with your name at #4 and only 5 replies each, you will bring in an additional $125.00!!!! Now, those 125 persons turn around and post the minimum 200 with your name at #3 and only recieve 5 replies each, you will make an additonal $625.00!!! OK, now here is the fun part, each of those 625 persons post a minimum 200 messages with your name at #2 and they each only recieve 5 replies, that just made you $3,125.00!!! Those 3,125 persons will all deliver this message to 200 news groups, If just 5 more reply you will receive $15,625.00!!! All with an original investment of only $6.00!!! Amazing isn't it!!!! When your name is no longer on the list, you just take the latest posting in the news groups and send out another $6.00 to the names on the list, putting your name at number 6 again. You must realize that thousands of people all over the world are joining the internet and reading these messages every day!!! Just like you are now!!! So, can you afford $6.00 and see if it really works? I'm glad I did!!! People have said, "what if the plan is played out and no one sends you the money?" So what!!! What are the chances of that happening, when there are tons of new honest users and new honest people who are joining the internet and news groups everyday and are willing to give it a try? Estimates are at 20,000 to 50,000 new users, every day!!! REMEMBER PLAY HONESTLY AND FAIRLY AND THIS WILL REALLY WORK!!! --comments/feeback(please post your feedback/experiences here)--- Not bad for 1 hr's work....made me around $5320 in roughly 35 days Anthony M Texas Hello, i rcvd 269 bucks in the post in 2 weeks.

    - can't move start button [that's only part of it...] don't know how it happened, but the 'start' button is now in the upper right, and when i go to it and get the double arrow and click on it and hold to try and move it, it won't move. in addition, when i try the same to move the quick-launch toolbar over, it won't move, either. if i move the address bar too far, it separates from the bar into its own little window titled 'address bar'. the right side bar, which now contains the 'start' button and the time and running programs, can only be moved towards the center, though not beyond. also, when i open IE, the toolbar/taskbar at the bottom disappears and cannot be retrieved onto the window. needless to say, i feel like a total computard. can anyone assist??? i really appreciate, and loads of thanks in advance... not too happy right about now-- allyson Tag: Removing a file from the Restore\Archival area Tag: 208091

    - RE: Firewall alerts! My av software recently detected the virus W32.Sobig.f In my email. Obviously I never opened the attachment and immediately binned it I then received it again the following day. It seems to be getting spammed via a ghost mail or some such software to me. Ok so I went and checked out some Av sites to find out about this virus it tells me that its a high risk worm worse apparently then the MSblast or lovsan worm, the sites also tell you about how the system sends udp packets etc, etc. to a range of various IP addresses and they in turn send you loads of shit back. however the virus first must be activated manually. Which I didnt do. It also apparently sends itself to all contacts in your mail list. I have an aardvark entry as an untrue email address entered into my contacts list so that it stops this behaviour happening with worms they see the fist entry in your list try to send but cant because the email add is incorrect and the first entry in the list so it cant continue.Straightforward but effective. Problem is no online AV software is showing a problem and my own AV software is no longer showing a prob but since contracting the worm My firewall has been taking a pounding form loads of different IPS, some of which were listed as the ones the virus sends the packets to. I am getting the warnings come on telling me about subseven and backdoor trojan hack attempts which get autoblocked as its set to do that on all ports but the ports are stealthed so technically shouldnt even be visible. Does anyone know what would be a resolve to this. I am getting at least 7 hack attempts daily now from all different IPS and have tried reporting it to my ISP with very little help. Any input at this point guys would be hellpful! Its Norton Internet Security I use and is up to date! Does anyone know if I there is a section on the software that I can see If I am being port scanned and how to block it? Where would I go in ME to check my ports manually? Thanks and cya.

    - Unmanageable Windows Explorer Errors After unsuccessfully attempting to install a wireless networking card on my Dell Laptop, I've begun a chain reaction of errors that center around, Explorer has caused an error in <unknown> and will shut down, if you experience this again restart computer... This error comes up every few seconds unless I leave it open and ignore it. I could fix it with a system restore, except that Netgar's wonderful tech support recommended a reinstall of the ME OS. Now I have no check points to restore to. Internet Explorer will not work, I cannot establish a connection on my LAN...I've spent hours and nothing has helped. There seems to be some corruption somewhere, but I'm not sure where. I've tried to reinstall IE v6, but it could not complete the install...I'm really stuck.

    - ME starts in Safe Mode, but not in Normal Mode On a Toshiba laptop, Windows ME gets up to second beep, then just sits there with a DOS screen and an underline blinking cursor, but goes no further. Starting in Safe Mode works fine. Starting with confirmation goes all the way through the mouse driver, and then stops. I never get to the blue screen with an hour glass cursor. This happens every once in a while, and my only recourse so far is to start over with the computer's system recovery disk. I would like to know what Windows is hanging on.

    - Corrupt icons? My son (roll eyes) downloaded one badaddress 404 page to my desktop and had about 6 others of the same page going so I stopped them and deleted the one he did get off of the desktop. Later that evening I went back to my desktop and over the icons for my program shortcuts (IE Yahoo! Player, CallWave, NetZero) was superimposed a calender with apad pencil. I've tried deleting the shelliconcache but it did not work. It even displays this in the folders and everywhere those icons are. Tag: Removing a file from the Restore\Archival area Tag: 208015

    - corrupt icons? I have a problem with the shortcut icons displayed on my desktop (stuff like CallWave, NetZero, Yahoo! Player, etc.). There is a image or a desktop calender with a pad and pencil superimposed over the icons used. You can see just the top of them over the calender. I need to know how to remove the calender icon so I can see the one underneath. I have already troed the one given to me by HELP by deleting the shelliconcache but it didn't work. Any help will be apreciated. Tag: Removing a file from the Restore\Archival area Tag: 208013

    - System Freezing Up I am having a problem with my Windows ME system and I have no idea what's wrong with it. Whenever I do just about anything (IE, Word, Photoshop, AOL, etc) in Windows, I can do stuff for about 5-10 minutes and then my PC just freezes up and I have to cold boot it. However, I can play games (Madden 2004, Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory) for hours and hours and my system won't freeze. Has anyone ever heard of anything like this? I have all the latest video drivers for my card and I am virus free and spyware free. I have run pretty much all the Norton tests on my system (Disc Doctor, Windows Doctor, Registry Optimizer, Speeddisc, etc) and nothing is helping. Any suggestions?

    - C/:Drive I have recently up dated to Windows ME. Prior to this I was running Windows 95,which I assume was loaded on my computer when it was originaly purchased. I did not purchase it though it was a gift. My question is ; Why does the C/: drive on my computer only show up as Windows95? As far as I can see I don't have any Windows ME on my hard drive at all. Is there a step that I am missing or is this a normal thing? Can you please tell me if there is anything I nead to do? Tag: Removing a file from the Restore\Archival area Tag: 208006

    - content advisor Hi. Does anyone know if it is possible for the password to content advisor to be changed without it being specifically altered? My situation is that my password, all lower case letters, was changed to capital letters without me or anyone else having made the change. Can this really happen? Thanks.

    - Windows ME CD key I have discarded the case of my Win ME CD which had a copy of the CD key on the reverse. I forgot to make a note of it too. I still have the box and manual but the CD key is not on either of these. Is there a way of finding out what the CD key is or am I stuck?

    - IE restore to previous windows version I have recently had many problems with IE crashing - user.exe error messages and constant IE pop ups appearing one of which is Virtual bouncer trying to install. I have been fortunate to copy many personal documents and pictures onto CD in case of major problems. I have restored IE to a previous windows version after originally trying a repair to no avail. Now after restoring when I boot up it appears to log on (asking for ID and password) but after entering nothing appears on screen, no icons or background. I have used C.A.D but found no applications are running. Any help to rectify the problem will be greatly appreciated. I have unfortunately discarded the CD case without keeping a note of the CD KEy, is there a way of finding out what this is or am I stuck? Thanks. Gaz.

    - How to ReLoad ME Updates Quick question. I have just checked my installation history and noticed that I have many updates that list the status as "FAILED". This comes as a surprise because I did not notice that the updates did not install at the time. The last "fail" was August 9, 2003, and more before that. My question: How do I go back and install these updates after they failed the first time? Some of these updates are important. Awaiting a reply.

On my last virus scan I found a small, somewhat harmless
bug - DSSAgent - which I would like to remove. It is
however in the Restore\Archival area and is writeprotected
so how do I unprotect it and get rid of it?
