New one for me, enjoy Click on Image Not Safe For Work

Cowboy I've never clicked on my IP to get me on the net in the past, all I've ever done is click on either my browser or email. Now if you have a good AV and firewall I wouldn't worry about clicking on FF. If your still worried I'd suggest contacting your IP helpline and ask how you can change the default browser settings. Let us know how you get on.

Cowboy, I'm not sure if this will help. When you go online do you click the IE shortcut? If so try clicking on the FF icon. Once FF is up and running, go to tools> option> general. Make sure default browser is clicked so FF knows to load everytime. If that doesn't help jump over to the forum on Mozilla and see what they can come up with. Maybe one of the other guys on here might be able to help too. Sorry I can't help more wit this one, I'm using broadband and I've disabled IE. BTW Happy Fathers day too, just opening up a few Buds, first of the day, but not the last

R...I...G...H...T... That helps how? @cowboy I'll try and explain what's good and bad about FF. I think the main good thing is it opensource. Which means, (I'm not wanting to assume you don't know but just making sure you do), we can help make FF better. Unlike IE which keeps all the coding a secret (it's my code and your not playing with it ) FF or more likely Mozilla is quite happy to let people play with the code and when there is a problem evreyone pitches in to fix it. FF allows you to browse the net the way you want to. When your using IE and you click on a link another window will open. FF however only usually keeps the same window open, but opens a tab. Which means your taskbar doesn't get all cluttered. This is just one of the good things about FF. FF is alot more customisable, stopping popups and ads being shown etc. There is so many things FF can do it's just a case of playing with it. Now I'm not going to say FF is the best thing since sliced bread. It does have it problems, but again unlike IE(or MS) they have admitted to the problems and are trying to fix them. MS will just let people keep using their product until they feel it's time a change is needed. Back the main problem with FF. It is a bit of a resource hog. Many people will say they don't have a problem with that but it is something to be aware of. The only thing I can suggest it install FF play with it get used to it I'm sure you won't be disappointed. If you are, no worries. Uninstall it and keep using IE. Finally FF isn't for everyone, but it must be doing something right as it seems to have MS one the run which for me isn't a bad thing. If you want any further information please give me a shout. mps

Thanks for the comments. @zaphirer the RAM is fine I've only got 512 at the moment and most of the stuff I run never gets above 5k. @neighberaaron, zaphirer is it right it's XP modded to look like Mac OS X. I'm using a whole raft of software to get the look. I'm at work at the moment so I can't remember it all. The basic are styler(which is free now) and Avedesk. I'll put the full spec up if anyone is interested. If you looking to playaround with your PC and make it look how you like it I would suggest you take a look at the forum Aqua-soft.org, there is great bunch of guys that make some amazing skins and apps. Alot of the stuff is based on Mac emulation. If you need any pointers let me know. mps

My new DS you all like it. Click the image PS Thanks Parvez, for showing me how to use preview shots.

Check out this, it shows you everything you'll need. Any probems give me a shout and I'll see what I can do. Look Here

If you use visual styles this will change the taskbar colour, it's free too.

To quote from a film "I'll tell you one thing about the universe, though. The universe is a pretty big place. It's bigger than anything anyone has ever dreamed of before. So if it's just us... seems like an awful waste of space. Right? " I think it's a good way to think. Just my 2 cents worth.

Ohhh it's "that" vista VS. Your darn lucky to have it. I came on the scene too late and never got a chance to download it. Glad you got to the problem though

Can you either supply a link and I'll try it on my PC to see I get the same results.

Does this happen with all VS or just some? I don't have an answer just trying to narrow it down? I've never had this problem before. Infact I'm running 2 VS on the one PC, one profile for me and another one for my wife and they never conflict with each other. If you don't get an answer here you might want to post your question over at neowin or aqua-soft. Those site are full of top notch skinner. Hope that some kind of help.

Well done Parvez, I've been trying to add a preview shot for ages, without success. Can I ask what are you using PS or rumshot? Can to also explain how you did it cause I keep failing Cheers

Nice try, but no coconut

Something for you guys to think about. A man gets out his chair, Switches off the radio, Switches on the light, Then shoots himself. What is the man's occupation?

Yeah that did get the little gray cells working overtime.....nice one. Once you reveal the answer I'll post one up.

Neither, just love the wallpaper

Enjoy my new desktop

I agree I use FF with Adblock and I very rarely get these silly adverts. If you must see them, take them with a pinch of salt. Do you shout at the TV when all the adverts come on between programs, this is just another way Mr G and Co and trying to get money to keep this product free. I think it's time to cut these guys some slack.

Hey krit86lr check this out Sneeze Not saying your teachers would ever tell you an untruth

10 isn't true either, it was started during the black plague in the UK.

OMG, you've got me intrigued now!! So I'm going to hit you with a few questions, if you don't mind Your saying you don't need to install this on to a HD? How does it compare if I did install it? Is it stable? If I'm running from the CD could I jump back to windows, or even if I do install it can I jump between OS? One last one for now, I do install it onto my HD, how easy is it to boot to it, would I have to restart the PC and will I get a "which OS would you like to boot up" type of question? Sorry this is a bit off topic, but I've been wanting Linux OS for ages and couldn't seem to find one that was so easy to use.

Level 5 is kinda tricky
