A very useful program, BUT:
I have to hit the key for "!" TWICE to get the character !. The first time it is hit, nothing happens. This is annoying.
And I have to hit the END key TWICE to get to the end of the line. The first time it only takes me to the end of the word.
Why is that? What can I do?-allesok (February 17, 2010, 09:55 AM)

www.mediafire.com ... they been around forever and they are ultra reliable, their free storage is more than sufficient for most people and they offer a paid service (cant remember the price) for those who want to do huge file uploads.so, they have unlimited upload/download & unlimited storage for the free service - what's the catch, how do they do that ???-Stephen66515 (February 15, 2010, 04:41 PM)

Does IQ work under Linux properly, even under Wine?-kartal (February 12, 2010, 01:32 PM)
While I agree wholeheartedly with not clicking links in emails and being wary, in this case the email wasn't spam, it was legitimate. I received the same one and the links were similar, but different. If you look closely, you'll see the lid field has different values. If you click on the links you'll also see they take you to different pages.

lfov.net redirects to LoopFuse.net, a sales and marketing automation service. These services allow the sender (in this case Syncplicity) to track what links were clicked along with other analytics.
You'll never go wrong if you manually type in the company's URL when you get an email, but in some cases (like the survey) the links are masked for the sake of email tracking. The only way to the survey is through the tracked link.-jaden (February 11, 2010, 06:10 PM)
Saw the sign up page yesterday, made it a point to not touch that "Try it" button, and logged into my gmail account.
Woke up this morning only to find that while I was sleeping, it had snuck into my gmail account & made a comfy little home for itself.
It showed me the people I'm "following" and the people who are "following" me.
W T F ??????? I don't "follow", I don't Tweet. I'm only on Facebook and I keep FB & Gmail separate for a reason.
Uggghh...I feel like I'm being stalked by a google app!!!!
