From http://techreviews.i...lication-in-windows/:When I was planning to write about FindandRun Robot. I was wondering why would someone need it on a Windows 7 or for that matter a Windows Vista machine. I totally understand it’s need on prior versions of Windows before Windows Vista. But after I installed and started using it I was in love with this utility. Also, it’s much more advanced than Vista or Windows 7 “Search programs and files” feature.

is the tool that finds the stuff on my computer.
Anyone using or have used ClamWin, I'm currently with it and am satisfied, though I stumbled upon some bugs.-r3xus (January 06, 2009, 02:18 AM)
I have started using AVAST - happy with it. Light on resources and seems to do the job.Thanks-Carol Haynes (January 05, 2009, 08:57 AM)
doesn't sound very convincing.
Necromancer warning lol, but threatfire have released a new version, V4, released just very recently. They claim to have fixed many problems with it. http://www.threatfire.com/updates/I've tried v.4 and even desperately tried to make it work. It seems like the 'old' problem with AVG Pro hasn't been resolved. It was previously said that when Threatfire is added to the exception list of AVG it will work but for some reason the whole system still freezes on boot up at times. TF keeps showing 'initializing' and nothing but a hard shut down will help.
I have always liked the idea of threatfire but found in the past that it interfered with bootup and seemed to slow things down a lot and I would remove it, this version, while only a few hours old on my laptop seems to be behaving much better. Claims of reduced annoyances are yet to be seen bit so far so good.-Grorgy (October 30, 2008, 07:52 PM)
At my previous uni I had to buy a Linux compatible router myself as I was the only one using it. Generally, when I mention Linux to the locals I get a 'well, yeah and what is that?'. No way can I convince my students to switch, not even to Open Office.Is that through eduroam? I'm having some trouble with my univ's wireless too..-jgpaiva (November 09, 2008, 10:02 AM)
I Besides, I think she said Wi-Fi does not work under Linux as well, so it could be something different, maybe a problem with the Wi-Fi network in itself.-Lashiec (November 09, 2008, 10:11 AM)
Thanks for the tip., I don't like that), Note++ has gotten slower with every new version. I'm not really a programmer so all I need is opening a text file fast but with tabs and an explorer please.
I find that a majority of people who complain about vista either A. Never used it, B. Used it for 5 minutes, saw a UAC prompt and quit or C. Simply like to tinker and end up breaking something and then blame vista for it.I haven't really got a problem with Vista, just taking the pee a little-Josh (November 06, 2008, 11:03 PM)
, actually 'scorn' would be the better word.
Licenced vista users should just install windows xp. I just did that this weekend on my wife`s laptop and her laptop runs twice as fast and I do not need to spend another 100 bux to run it smoothly.-kartal (November 06, 2008, 04:53 PM)

You blokes and blokesses are as kool as it can get
I'll try dropbox too.
have you started using it yet biox ?Had it running last night and it did upload 1.5GB, the plan was 8.1GB. I find their upload application a bit awkward to use as to non-resizeable settings window (rather small) and a very fast scrolling log. I know that I can read the log later on but then there are 3-4 hours wasted if something went wrong. I'm running an incremental backup now in an attempt to get the remaining folders over there.
was wondering how it works... thinking that it would nicely hold my photos with a bit of room to spare
sorry, cant help you on laptop-tomos (July 31, 2008, 07:13 AM)
have you started using it yet biox ?Tomorrow morning. Doesn't make sense to try anything 'upload' in the evening here (22.00). Hopelessly oversubscribed ISPs.

It looks like www.adrive.com has officially started both free and commercial options. The free option gives you 50 gb for personal use.Trying it out as we speak. Signed up for the, apparently, free 50GB version. Seems a lot for free but I've run out of options.-kartal (July 13, 2008, 10:07 PM)
give me back me podcastI'd like to have the Podcast back. Those were so fun!+1 to the Podcasts! whatever happened to them?-Deozaan (May 08, 2008, 08:46 PM)-lanux128 (May 08, 2008, 09:05 PM)
.........please
And you expect them to make a change like that to an OS which is nearing its EOL?I'm too old to still 'expect' anything-Josh (May 04, 2008, 07:36 PM)
What do people expect?-Josh (May 04, 2008, 07:02 PM)
The last SP of any OS is always a minor collection of all existing updates.They had to give in once or twice or ... why not once more. Maybe I'm the only one who thinks that Vista becomes a second ME. At first M$ was very loud and fast to throw Win2k out but then........, Vista on all new PCs and notebooks but then...............-Josh (May 04, 2008, 07:02 PM)
Oops - I must have been checking against RC2 - the MajorGeeks file IS identical to the MS one. (Sorry for the confusion).Well, I downloaded both (again) and I wouldn't be surprised if RC2 was just slightly different or not different at all.
Strangely the RC2 file I have has all the same 'Properties' characteristics as the final release versions.-Carol Haynes (May 04, 2008, 03:34 PM)
Windows XP Service Pack 3 (SP3) includes all previously released updates for the operating system. This update also includes a small number of new functionalities, which do not significantly change customers experience with the operating system.I don't think they have done much.-M$
Just downloaded XP SP3 (English) from MicrosoftYour link and http://www.majorgeek...ce_Pack_3_d4323.html are both 316 MB on my site of the world, same number as well.
Checked files size with the version from MajorGeeks and it is a different size from the version I have on my hard disc. Same KB number, same build number? Has MS updated the SP3 installer or have I got a duff original download from MajorGeeks?
Could some kind soul download the MS version above and check byte sizes with the MajorGeeks file and see if I am wrong?-Carol Haynes (May 04, 2008, 07:28 AM)
Can you survive for 24 hours without your computer ?Which one? My notebook? Yeah, absolutely. It's at HP service and certainly shut down as they don't work Sat/Sun.
Almost a year and nothing done to the website. The wife's got too much work already. I'm afraid if I really did something and get it up in the rankings I'd be sitting alone at home for rest of my life.Biox, the first dress on your businesses homepage is stunning! Your wife is very talented.Yeah she is. I would like to put a few more pix up but would have to get the permission from the customers first. I don't like those headless pix and there will be a little description under the pix in the future. But that isn't the most important thing at the moment. The wife's been sleeping in the shop for the last 4 month cos of too much work and I need to learn more about all this stuff cos the wife can't speak English but most of our customers are westerners.-Darwin (August 12, 2007, 07:55 AM)
