General Software Discussion / Re: Notification Icons

« on: January 18, 2010, 03:20 PM »

Thanks for the information.  I did some more searches using some different key words and found some suggestions.  It seems the only way to do it, is to edit the register.  Lots of suggestions on how to do it, but really not that important, so guess I'll just leave well enough lone. Thanks so much for taking the time to answer.

General Software Discussion / Notification Icons

« on: January 17, 2010, 03:39 PM »

Hello, all.  Have a question I haven't been able to find an answer to.  When you click on the "Taskbar and Start Menu Properties" , go to the bottom where you can hide inactive icons and click on customize, another box comes up "Customize Notifications" with two sections.  One is "current items" and the second is "past items".  What I would like to know is how to delete some of the items in the "past items" section.  Some are icons for programs I no longer have or no longer use or have no idea where they came from.  Is there anyway to delete these items without using the register?  Thanks for your time.

General Software Discussion / Firefox 3.5?

« on: July 27, 2009, 03:23 PM »

I have a question I hope someone can help me with.  It may be showing my ignorance, but I have to ask.  The latest update I got from Firefox was 3.0.12, however I have been reading lately about FF 3.5.  What happened to versions 3.1, 3.2, etc.? I always thought a major update picked up the next number, (example, 3.0 to 3.1, etc.).  Is 3.5 bata?  If one upgrades should 3.0.12 be deleted first?  Please, make me smart    Thanks for any info anyone can provide.

Has anyone heard if Clif has stopped publishing his computer newsletter?  Besides DonationCoder it was one of the newsletter I looked forward to.  He hasn't put anything out in about a month and if he is not going to he usually sends an email letting us know.  I hope not, but I'm beginning to think its dead.  Has any one heard?  Thanks.

Thanks again, mouser.  I'll download a new copy and install in the next couple of days.  I'll try it out using the icon and let you know if it happens again.
Your help was most appreciated.

Thanks, mouser.  I tried that and it worked fine.  Guess I was trying to take a short cut so I didn't have to remember the key combos.  Also, you said it looked like I had an older version.  Should I delete the old one first before installing the new one or can I install over the old one? And will it pickup my registration code?  Thanks for your advise.

Here is my problem.  When I right click the Screenshot Captor icon in the sys tray I get a list of things you can do.  As my attachment shows it also captures the cursor and the action that was being done.  What am I doing wrong?  Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks.

Tried the "TryScreensaver".  Nice little program and will list the screensavers, but you can't set the saver you want except manually.   It defaults to windows scr list.  Thanks again.

Thanks for the suggestion, cmpm.  I'll give it a try, but reading about it, it was hard tell if you can set your own screensaver or you have to use the ones Win XP lists.  I tried one similar to this one, but you could only start an stop the scr.  Thanks again.

General Software Discussion / Need Screensaver Manager

Need some help to find a screensaver manager.  I have Win XP.  XP will not let you browse for screensavers that doesn't show up in the screensaver list.   I can run them manually and they work just fine.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.
