    - Security Software for ME Hi there, Sorry to say I've asked this question before but have mislaid the answer. Can you give me recommendations for various packages to run on a 7-year-old Win ME system that are free? I'm looking for: Antivirus Antispyware/Malware Pop-up blocker/ad blocker Antiphishing Firewall Anything else I should have installed to keep this system secure. Would I be better running FireFox rather than IE6? This is a 433 MHz Celeron system with 192 MB of RAM. Also, need to clean this system up. What would you recommend for defragmenting and removing left-over files? Any other suggestions would be most welcome. Thank you! Lynn Tag: 3 fast proxies to Unblock all sites!

    - AdAware SE & 2007 I have a friend using AdAware SE (free edition) I'm checking here because the new AdAware 2007 version appears to be only for Windows XP or Vista - NOT Win98, nor WinME. On the other hand, while the AdAware site says they are no longer supporting AAW SE after December 2007, there are Ref files for January and February. I've posted a request for info in the AAW forums but no replies so far. I'm asking here as I know there are many users here that are facing this issue too. Does anyone still use AAW SE? Are web updates working on WinME? IF not, do manual updates work? Thanks, Fred Tag: 3 fast proxies to Unblock all sites! MySpace, Facebook, bebo, Tag: 293675

    - display adapter issue I have an ATI rage fury pro/xpert 2000 pro display adaptor, at least that's what the device manager tells me. On occasion, during warm reboots, the machine will lose the display driver during the reboot. It'll get past the Windows's screen and when the desktop is supposed to start loading, the screen is black. Rebooting again will make the system go into the startup menu after the Windows splash screen. It doesn't matter which option you choose because it'll go straight into safe mode. Once it loads the wallpaper the display properties will come up and I can change to high color 16 bit. After the prompt to restart the machine will act fine again and I can resize the desktop and change it to true 32. This issue has gone on for years now. It'll happen more often if I change the hardware acceleration past 0%. Checked ATI's site but no updated drivers. Thanks in advance. Tag: 3 fast proxies to Unblock all sites!

    - Time for a new operating system?? I used winme just until a little after they stopped offering support and they admitted, at the very end, that it was a dud that cannot be secured. I found windows2000 that I like and is supported but how about trying Linux and give up the spyware virus magnet, especially on a system that cannot even be secured in the first place. Try PcLinux, get the minime version. Simply download the ISO file and burn it to a CD with DeepBurner and set your BIOS to boot fropm the CD drive and reboot. Use the system from your hard drive and decide if you like it or not. If you like it install it. Tag: 3 fast proxies to Unblock all sites! MySpace, Facebook, bebo, Tag: 293526

    - Network issue Hi I have a problem with an old laptop that I want to set up with my wireless broadband connection. The problem that I have (I think) is that I am missing 'My network Places' and also missing the IEEE802.1x network protocol. The wireless USB adapter is a brand new Safecom one and works fine on my other laptop, which has the 2 missing items above, so it rules out the adapter. The adapter finds my connection and links up fine, but I cannot get any web pages. Any ideas?? Many thanks TK Tag: 3 fast proxies to Unblock all sites! MySpace, Facebook, bebo, Tag: 293485

    - Rhyme but no Reason to System Restore points deletion 'opefully there is still time for me to learn to control our WinMe computer. I've noticed since I got to messing around with it, that System Restore points dissappearing for no reason I was aware of. I don't run some of the Disk Cleaning Utilities nearly as much as I used to. I used to Defragment alot (every night) because I had seen how disk (file) fragmentation can degrade system response time. Back then I never used System Restore points - was barely aware they existed. It also seemed I never needed them. Nowadays things have changed (Dunno why / wish I did) System Restore points can really save your system. In these circumstances, I am pretty sure that the Defragment utility destroys Restore points. Can some one please clarify this situation? HTH Bob from Oceanside Tag: 3 fast proxies to Unblock all sites! MySpace, Facebook, bebo, Tag: 293473

    - Hibernate & Garbage Collection & Finer Points My oh my, the activity on this group seems to be getting thin like my hair... When you "hibernate" primarily for garbage collection ( the analog to memory as scandisk is for disk), one would rather not have their system take a nap. One just wants ME to clean up its used-memory and unused memory linked lists and then let the user do what ever they want. Unfortunately, as the name of the mode says, one will have to hibernate until taking the few steps required to wake up from hibernation. Those steps might easily take a minute or two. (On our computer, I have to go get a finger nail clipper but that's another story). I know everybody (except me, apparently) has known how to put their system into hibernation since Y2K but to allow me to be clear on how I Quickly "collect (memory) garbage", permit me to rewrite the manual on Hibernate: 1. Click Start then Shutdown then the Drop Down Arrow then Hibernate then OK. At this point if one keeps a sharp eye on the Shutdown menu, an icon resembling an Open Door appears then the screen goes black. Hibernation has begun. The way to Quick Garbage Collection is the same except, as soon as one sees the Open Door icon, begin alternately pressing and releasing the Space Bar about 5 times a second for about 4 seconds. The screen will go black but for only several (about 4) seconds. Then one will first see the monitor power LED light up, the system loud speakers will burp and the monitor screen will come back to life. If one kept the System Monitor utility program on during this process then they will see the memory garbage has been taken out also. Tag: 3 fast proxies to Unblock all sites!

    - upgrade?Nvidia AGP8x FX5200 etc.? I am using the GE Force4 MX440 and it works for email, YouTube, and the WinME MovieMaker program still handles our old Sony VX1000 camcorder. Occasionally I crank out small win9x swdev projects mainly with VC++4.0 (yeah, its ancient, like me). On the shelf are DevStudio 5(win98se) and VisualStudio6(NT4). Stuff on the shelf seems to rarely come off the shelf. I thought I should do a little housecleaning and I discovered I also have an unused Kaser FX5200 128 MB Nvidia graphic card. It's box says it has some nice nview Multi-Display capabilities and "TV-out support (NTSC/PAL) TV system". Will it support a decent flatscreen? This homebuilt is on a Gigabyte 7VT600P-RZC mob, 400 watt MGE psu(should I get a bigger PSU?), 1 GB DDR RAM(Should I add 1 or 2 GB RAM?). CPU is an Athlon XP 1066 MHz.

    - Speed Up Your Computer By Cleaning Your Registry What is the registry? The registry is a database that stores information necessary to configure the system for your computers users, applications, and hardware devices. Why does it need to be cleaned (repaired)? Every time you install software on your computer, change a system setting, delete a program, all the changes are kept in the registry. Over time, your registry grows, however, it also can end up fragmented and full of unwanted registry items. These unwanted items occur by removing attributes of programs or deleting programs you no longer want without using the Add or Remove Programs function. Some programs do not always come with proper uninstall programs, so you are only able to delete a portion of the program. Or possibly you have moved a file, and now the program that used this file is unable to find it or it's an orphan file left over from an unsuccessful attempt to delete a program completely. In short, over time you end up with numerous misplaced files and objects which your computer can not process, this can slow your computer considerably, make start-up take forever and sometimes cause errors that will "crash" your computer....

I tried installing my Sound Blaster Live driver. It processed through until it stopped and sent this message: â??File Driver6.CAB on Windows Me edition is needed.â?? At this point I did not know what to do next and aborted the driver installation. I then went to the Dell troubleshooting diagnostics for audio and it told me to search for the following files: midi=mmsystem.dll wave=mmsystem.dll I did a search and the files were not listed. The Dell diagnostics told me to contact my manufacturer if the files were missing. So, can someone assist me what to do next? Thanks, Jerry Reeder Tag: 3 fast proxies to Unblock all sites!

    - Reinstalling Windows Me It sounded like it was too easy!! Successfully reinstalled Windows Me this morning, subsequently taking several hours downloading all the updates. In the process of downloading required utilities, I ran into a memory problem which made no sense. However I have subsequently found out that previous partitions appear to have remained, although they are not recognized in MY COMPUTER. Background: This is a 10 GB Compaq Laptop which is shipped with the O/S on the C: drive and the Recovery System on D:. A couple of years ago, I had created a new partition to house all of my data files., OE Message store, tmp and temp. Currently, MY COMPUTER shows C: at 4.86 GB and D: at 2.72 GB, however SYSTEMS INFORMATION shows the following; 3 Partitions Size 9.37 GB Partition Disk#0 (Partition #0) Size 4.88 GB Partition Disk#0 (Partition #1) Size 2.73 GB Partition Disk #0 (Partition #2) Size 1.75 GB BootIt NG shows the following; MBR Entry 0 Partition 4997nMB FAT-32 Data Partition 1796 MB FAT-32 MBR Entry 1 Partition 2793 MB Extended System_S Volume 2793 MB FAT-32 I had thought I understood that the Compaq Recovery Discs would reformat my computer and restore to a Factory level. Obviously not so. I'm ready to start over but this time I need a little more guidance as to how to do it properly. Was I supposed to format C: and D: separately before starting? D0 I use the startup disk for this or should I use BootIt NG to format and wipe everything clean? I'm on my way out for the evening and will be busy tomorrow afternoon but will be ready to tackle this thereafter. Thanks Tag: 3 fast proxies to Unblock all sites!

    - AdAware SE Personal Build I just read the tail end of the recent thread regarding AdAware SE and would appreciate if someone wouldn't mind taking a few minutes more and clarifying this for me. My version of AdAware is SE1R210.27.12.2007. Any time I check for updates I'm told that I am up to date. A visit to the Lavasoft website explains that support for this version expired December 31, 2007 but that I should replace it with AdAware 2007. The problem is that 2007 requires Windows 2000 or better. Mike has explained to Heather that Lavasoft has fixed the problem with the dated definitions and that she can download new definitions for AdAware SE from the Lavasoft site. I do indeed see where the DOWNLOAD button is on the webpage that Mike referenced but Lavasoft is still saying that they no longer support AdAware SE. So the question is, did Lavasoft simply fix the issues related to dated definitions or is AdAware SE now back with full support. Given that this 'puter operates with Windows Me, it would appear to me that either SE remains supported otherwise I must uninstall it because I won't be able to run AdAware 2007. Am I right or did I miss something? Dan Tag: 3 fast proxies to Unblock all sites! MySpace, Facebook, bebo, Tag: 293206
