Toolbars sucks, uninstall them.

It is old news. Mr. G announced partnership with Pirifirm Ltd some months ago, which supposedly is a group of his friends or something. But it seems CCleaner is the only thing made, and seems Mr. G is the only one who is doing something.

Scroll wheel.

Yeah, I've heard a lot of good stuff about LiteOn.

Yeah, it is very good that you are here. But that a developer interacts with the community is something that I consider very important. When he don't, it feels like he don't care so much about the people who use the software.

Yeah, optical discs can get damaged. But dumb people just have them laying around, and have them on floors, use their fat greasy fingers to touch the surface then wonder why it don't work. They should be carefully handled, never touched on the surface, and placed in a protective jewel case stored in a dark room-temperatured place. Also, I heard that there are protective coating on some optical discs, that make them more scratch resistant. -- Yeah, change to a new standard takes a lot of time. Most computers still ship with floppy drives. People still use floppy disks. Now tapes, floppies, LP is less used. Many people still don't own a DVD player in their living room even though it have existed very long. And now it will be extra trouble some because HD-DVD and Blu-Ray compete, so there isn't one standard, and people don't know what to buy. So DVD will still stay a long time to come...

Hmm... now I am confused... I didn't know this... I wonder why it remove program uninstallers too... That is very misleading... What program uninstallers does it remove?

Yeah, that's right. But they don't know me, so they shouldn't say I am pirate or something. Maybe I buy my DVD's at eBay, maybe I buy DVD's in other country when I am on a vacation, maybe my cousin in other country buy me a DVD movie as a present. Also the manufacturer of the DVD, should just make the the drive, and want me to buy it, and if it have region code, then I don't want to buy it. It's not their business what I do with my DVD drive, they just sell it to me.

Yeah, I am glad there is a new release. I immediately downloaded the new release and tried it out, I like it. It's good that it comes a new release. This particular release though isn't all too exciting. I don't use Opera, and don't speak Serbian or Spanish. I would be glad to see more through cleaning. Would be nice with an section on the forum or website where users could submit suggestions for registry entries to clean. Get the community more involved in improving the software, so that it could improve at a faster rate. Would be good if Mr. G was more active in the community himself, and talked, replied and communicated some with the users of his software.

Yeah, TheOpenCD is cool, you can either download it or buy it. It is to introduce people to open source software by making a CD with some good open source software for Windows. Programs included are Firefox, Thunderbird, 7-Zip, OpenOffice.org, and other other software for Internet, multimedia, utilities, etc.

More info about HVD on Wikipedia; * http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holographic_Versatile_Disc It's not 10 years from now, its just around the corner. But it is expensive, a HVD reader/writer will cost $10.000.

Hehe, people shouldn't start talk about dumb stuff like cyber terrorism lol. Whenever there is something bad nowadays, people say oh thats terrorism! Much laws have been passed thats infringe on privacy, under the cover that its needed to fight terrorism. Terrorism is the latest buzzword. "I need to inspect your rectal cavity, you agree to let me do this, don't you? You don't want be mistaken for a terrorist, do you?" "Ransomware" is f***ing evil though. It's rare, but it exists. It encrypts your files, so you cant access them, and to get them back, you have to pay money.

I don't think it needs any drivers or anything. Just unplug the Pioneer and put in the NEC. If you want, you can uninstall the Pioneer before you remove it, but I don't think that it is necessary. If I bought a DVD, it would probably be a LG though, they're cheap. BTW, I have a NEC and it can only change region coding 5 times, I guess it is like that for most other DVD players too, but I think that it sucks. Region coding sucks, I should be able to change it whenever I want and how often I want, and how many times I want. Heck, I shouldn't even need to change, it should read all regions.

If you know that you will not uninstall those, then go ahead and remove the hotfix uninstallers if you wish. I know that I wont remove any of the hotfixes, so I have removed the uninstallers.

Text output of running processes If you open up the "Command Prompt" and type "tasklist" then it lists tasks on the system.

More detailed information in Windows Task Manager Open the Windows Task Manager, select the "Processes" tab, select the "View" menu, then choose "Select Columns...", from here you can choose to enable more columns that present more data about the processes that are running on your operating system.

Seems this thread has gotten pretty out of topic. I think maybe will be HVD (Holographic Video Disk), which has much much more space than both HD-DVD and Blu-Ray. HVD has about a terabyte of space, I think...

I use have mine set to "Notify me but don't automatically download or install them". I want to have control of exactly what is downloaded, when it is downloaded, why it is downloaded, from where it is downloaded. Noway, that I am gonna have WGA or WGA Notifications on my computer. I really wish there was some to run the automatic updates software on-demand, such as "auto_update.exe /checknow" or something.

That's an ISP? Sounds like you do have a crappy ISP if you are required to install software to connect via your ISP. Sounds pretty AOL-like. My ISP doesn't try to get me to install anything.

Seems not so much new stuff...

I surely do hope that the Department of Homeland Security doesn't use Windows internally in the agency.

Yeah, you have to make yourself clear, because it is unclear what type of password software you want. One that manages your password, or one that password protects files. KeePass * http://keepass.sourceforge.net/ Password Safe * http://passwordsafe.sourceforge.net/

Yeah, it an standard test file that all antivirus software detect, so that people can verify that their software is correctly installed and configured and works. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EICAR http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eicar_test_file

AOL can't be trusted. As soon as I saw AOL, I got suspicious, and rightly so. As I've always said, AOL is the devil!
