  1. Not refuting you (I don't use Opera) but when in this sequence of events did you re-run CCleaner?
  2. Last year ... finalized in December 2005.
  3. I use FastStone Capture You can assign hotkeys and you can capture anything from full screen to freehand selected regions.
  4. Is it possible that the files are in use, i.e., locked by a process?
  5. AFAIK any non-English version may use different terms but the folders will be there. They are however hidden folders and you must enable Show hidden files and folders to see them.
  6. The article is ambiguous. It could mean the chip has to operate at -451 deg or it could mean that supercooling it during the production process causes some permanent change in the chip material.
  7. There's quite a few articles but it's not too practical yet: June 20, 2006 IBM chip breaks speed records Filed under: Processors By "freezing" chips to 451 degrees below zero, researchers have produced a semiconductor that operates 250 times faster than chips commonly used today. According to a report in today's New York Times, researchers at IBM and Georgia Institute of Technology achieved the speed milestone using a cryogenic test station to freeze the chip with liquid helium to temperatures normally found only in outer space.
  8. See Eating into ADSL cap ! He's had a sudden increase in internet traffic and he's trying to figure out which PC's on his network might be the cause.
  9. Not cookies but in the same place ... your browser cache until it's cleared.
  10. Probably as a result of this Site redesign I'm sure MrG will fix it asap.

    Driver Problem

    The HD Tune site says 55 deg C is the standard alarm level. Some other sites seem to consider anything above 50 deg C risky. The highest reading I've ever seen on my hard drive was 45 deg C. It might just be the one drive is dying or, depending on the cause of the high temperature, e.g., blocked air flow, other components could be overheating.

    Driver Problem

    Your HD Tune screen shot shows 55 deg Celsius. I believe that's considered too hot. Have you checked your fans, cleaned your air intake and exhaust, etc.?

    mcafee firewall

    They just released ZoneAlarm 6.5.714 which fixes some issues. Have you checked it?
  15. DON'T SHOUT! It shouldn't delete any necessary stuff but there can be problems if your system is already messed up, or you are running betas, e.g., IE7, or you have data or application files in the wrong places, e.g., temp folders. I recommend you create a System Restore point or (better) a backup image of your drive before you first CCleaner.
  16. AFAIK, CCleaner doesn't create a log. You might be able to tell from your OS when it last ran.
  17. Firefighter, Do you mean the search history? If so, see this thread AutoComplete Form History
  18. If you're using v1.30, it's mostly a matter of personal preference. If you use Microsoft Office, I don't recommend checking it because of this issue Office but it's not dangerous ... just annoying.

    restore

    From what you said in the other thread, there is a chance that you may not have deleted the pictures at all ... just shortcuts to them. Use Windows Explorer to navigate to C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Shared Documents\Shared Pictures and see if the pictures are still there.
  20. I'm not Microsoft's biggest fan and I've done my share of complaining but ... I remember people saying the same thing about Windows 95. Every major OS revision has faced the same outrage, just different numbers.
  21. I'm just saying that there can be multiple causes and differing effects for each of us. As an example, if I were to filter out www.lunarsoft.net or lunarsoft was temporarily unavailable, I would not be able to see your avatar but I would be able to see all the other avatars on this thread. This could explain the "some will show and others don't" situation you mentioned. In this recent incident, like LOTW, I lost all the images on the forum and got the red X placeholders. I tested a hunch and found that unblocking Referers corrected the problem. I contacted MrG and he confirmed that he had temporarily changed settings for a few days. Those settings would only have affected those of us that block Referers (see article). At other times, other setting changes may have been the cause, and may or may not have affected all of us.
  22. I think that what causes some images such as the avatars to sometimes drop out is the various url's being used. With individual sites changing settings or going offline, some of us using filters, etc. the images become unavailable. LOTW, this most recent incident only affected those of us that block referers.
  23. I PMed MrG and we sorted it out. He had temporarily changed some settings.

    Touchpad

    I've used several different brands of notebook and they all had sensitivity adjustment for the touchpad via a device controller.
  25. I'm not sure if this is what you mean but: The Folders button (highlighted in your screenshot) toggles the view for the left hand window; the button immediately to the right of it lets you select the view for the right hand window.
