A very interesting topic, and very interesting comments. Ralph Maximus and nontroppo in particular have amazed me with descriptions Slightly above my skills but still accessible. Reminds me a book of a French physician called Charon, who wrote a book called in French "L'esprit, cet inconnu". I have no idea if it's been translated, but it had developments concerning space and time, as the example of the "particule élémentaire ("elementary particle"?) of which we may know either the directio, or the speed, but not both... Ralph, perhaps have you read this article, http://www.telegraph.co.u...2007/10/10/scitime110.xml, which proposes the 2T theory (4 dimesions of space + 2 dimensions of time) in what is titles "Are we missing a dimension of time?" ? This is a real pleasure reading you all.

Ask my brains, they must know better than I. My perception of time does exist, but I have no idea how I represent it to myself. To answer that question, the only reference I see is in what may feed and drive my thoughts when I try to guess what time it is. I think that I try then to grasp a feeling based on something I feel I know, I feel is known, like when you slap hands in the rhythm. I think I represent time by trying to evaluate the drift of an automatism. Strangely enough, more I try to evaluate it, further I get from the right answer. But I do have to evaluate a minimum. Like in poetry, take your time to feel, but question those feelings quickly, otherwise our thoughts parasitize the mystery of the revealed perception ... "I know I know this face, but from where" ... It's getting late

Hello everyone! My name is Michel (that's Michael in English), I'm a Frenchman living at this time in France, will be 54 on Halloween (yep, I'm a 10/31 Scorpio!), officially a translator, but I still get to touch broader horizons... I discovered this friendly community of yours (of mine?) via the famous Process Tamer software, which enlightens my processor! A very big  to all!

tomos, a general security issue, no more. My security configuration notifies me of any change in the Registry, but not in the Start menu. In the case of ProcessTamer, it's related rather to a habit than to a security issue, of course. Also, as a slight maniac, I have preferences which are not always rational

OK, app103, thanks. If I asked it is also because I have noticed in the past that changing the launch of certain programs from the Start Menu to the Registry (User or Machine) made them fail to start normally. If I have the choice as you described it, hence I understand ProcessTamer may be then launched from Registry, fine. Sorry for my slightly complicated formulation, that of a Frenchman

Hello, Should I choose to have a program start with Windows, I prefer when possible to have it launched from within the Registry than from the Start Menu. In the case of ProcessTamer, what is the best Registry section, "Registry - User Run" or "Registry - Machine Run" (after having of course disabled "Start with Windows" in Configuration) ? Thanks
