  1. I like how Internet Explorer renders the pages.

    I like something, still unknown to me, about Firefox (I think its add-ons and ease of use).

    I live Google Chrome because it's something different and to be fair it does load pages that little bit quicker (only some pages though :P ).

     

    I was hoping Google Chrome would be a compromise between the two (Firefox and Internet Explorer) and it sort of is; they just need to fix the few bugs still.

  2. This is good news because now the silly SilverLight plug-in problem might be resolved (I shall look into this tonight :D ). Otherwise, yeah, I am looking forward to this release because I was actually willing to give up Firefox for it until I discovered a few problems (one of which previously mentioned).

     

    When I have managed to test it tonight I shall give more feedback and my conclusion.

     

    Edit: OK, now I have Google Chrome downloaded and installed and there's still a problem I noticed before and I do not dare try out SilverLight just yet; don't want to be disappointed. Other than that, I am quite inclined to consider Google Chrome as my default browser.

     

    I must admit though, Google Chrome is for a home user rather than a developer but nonetheless it is good.

     

    Some may find this an interesting watch: Clicky.

  3. I welcome snow and I most definitely welcome a white Christmas. We all should be in on Christmas day, or at least when we're out, we're out as a family having a meal or playing in the snow. :P

     

    I welcome snow generally 'cause if it's bad enough I get time off from College. I welcome a white Christmas because they are cool and really make Christmas that bit more special.

  4. Sometimes the data is available but not easily found.

    Many members,yours truly included, forget about those Important Topics at the top of each forum.

    New members never realize that very important information is available there.

    I check back in and re-read every now and then for a refresher. One sentence can provide the solution to many problems or avoidance of many problems. The authors sometimes update them and the update can be missed by many members.

    Yes !!! Sometimes I even re-read the forum rules.

    I have some interesting soup cans if you are interested.

    :lol:

     

    Keithuk, it's force of habit at this point.

  5. Assuming you mean that the files are actually unrecoverable, and not the Recuva just says that they are?

    Recuva just marks the files as red and as far as I know that means unrecoverable/not worth trying. :P

     

    And do you mean that the files are completely unrecoverable, or that most of the pic is recovered and a section is just fuzz?

    I never tried recovering the file so I don't know the answer to that. :unsure:

     

    I dunno. But I guess it's either that some parameter in the directory is altered so that the full or correct extents of the file can't be recovered, or that part of the data on the disk is altered when it's deleted (by writing a free space marker or something) so that the data can't be read properly, or that some field that Recuva is attempting to interpret returns the wrong info. Or that some temporary file is written or allocated on top of the data, but perhaps that is unlikely on a flash drive. Or that some file management software is automatically tweaking the data on the drive when files are deleted. I've run out of guesses now.

    :lol: OK, thanks for answering at least--appreciate it. ;)

  6. OK, so, I :wub: Recuva. </moment to share that>

     

    How come some files can be recovered, yet others cannot? For example, on my USB flash drive I deleted several images the same way I normally do: Shift + Delete and when using Recuva I get most of them images back but some are in red status/unrecoverable. Why is this? :unsure:

     

     

    If such a question, similar question, has been answered before please point me to it.

     

  7. :unsure:

    If you're looking for somewhere to store images, and even share them, then I recommend SkyDrive by Windows Live. 5GB capacity and I recall it to be a 50MB maximum upload per slot (i.e. a file that exceeds 50MB cannot be uploaded). As previously mentioned: you can share ('Public') your uploads or keep them private, I also believe you can choose friends (but not 'Public') to view as well.

  8. Hmm, I am still failing to understand the situation properly.

     

    How I see it is: you've logged into WLM (which is MSN) using Yahoo! and it worked up until a while ago when it stopped, at this point you decided to try your WLM (MSN) credentials and these still failed. Failing them two you visited http://mail.live.com to sign into Windows Live using your WLM credentials and it still failed.

    Right? ... if so, continue -- if not, then correct me ...

     

    Have you recently installed a firewall? This is the only thing that I can think of that would stop your MSN/WLM connecting to Windows Live. :unsure: But, then, it wouldn't stop your Internet Explorer--that is more a cookie issue.

    If you have recently installed a firewall then tell me what firewall it is? If not, then let me know. :P

    In Internet Explorer (v7): Tools -> Internet Options -> click on the "Privacy" tab -> click the "Default" button (or manually slide the bar down to "Medium") under "Settings" -> Click "OK". Restart Internet Explorer and try again.

  9. I tested Google Chrome little under four weeks back and it still had issues with SilverLight so I have left it. Otherwise, I was happy to go to Google Chrome.

     

    I'm looking forward to IE8 when it comes out.

    I don't know why. :unsure:

     

    Its missing so many basic features that it just doesn't cut it for me.

    I see what you mean, but I can't from off the top of my head think of one? Minus spell checker. :huh:

  10. Yes now installed and with Opera works in Secuina but FF shows this might problem loaading java and in Control Panel still no Icons.........

    Sorry, I fell ill for a few days; I am back now.

     

    By "no Icons" in Control Panel, what do you mean? Are you referring to 'Change or Remove Programs' list? :unsure:

     

    Edit: Sorry, forgot about "[...]problem loaading java[...]" in Firefox. For Firefox you are required to download an executable file which will install Flash throughout Windows rather than just as an add-on in Internet Explorer (of sort). You can download this executable here: Clicky.

  11. Interesting but will pass. Don't really want anymore right-click options.

    Yeah I think I agree. I don't like all the right-click/context menu options I have right now, let alone more. However, thanks for the recommendation. :D
