No need to worry! There's so little brain left that I hardly notice when people pick it anyway.

How to post a screenshot. And viola! @ Andavari: just realized you live right to my northwest. Small world!

Nope, you can delete it unless you think you may want to reinstall FF in the future. Of course, even if you do delete it and need it in the future, you can always redownload it, so you might as well get rid of it.

The desktop is the default location that files are downloaded to. If you have a folder that you would rather your downloads go into, you can specify this by going into Firefox's options, clicking the Download button at the top, and choosing the location. For example, I have all of my downloads go into a folder called "Downloads" located under My Documents. And after you extract or install whatever was contained in your downloaded item, you can safely remove it. However, if you download something that you may want to install in the future, it might save you time to keep the installer in a safe place in case it needs to be used again.

A little late now, but I just thought I'd mention one thing I really like about 1.5 as opposed to 1.0 is the redesigned Options window. I feel it has a more logical and easy-to-use setup than the previous version did.

I'mal busta cap in yo @$$!

Ha! Love the name. Just tried it out on my computer, and it worked great. The only problems I noticed was that it put too many spaces before the serial number (see below), and when it saves the log to a file, it doesn't give it an extension (even though when you are saving it, it says it will save it as a .txt document). Not too shabby for an app written in a day. Do you plan on making periodic updates to it, or was it just something you wrote for fun?

Bwa-ha-ha! And the lokoike virus continues to spread...

It's life, Jim, but not as we know it. You cannot change the laws of physics, captain! lokoike quotes, as Mike Rochip's Hijack-O-Meter goes through the roof.

Ah, so that's how they got Mr. Ed to the studio...

Yeah, I'm lucky to be posting here now. My microwave died this morning, and being a bachelor, I was sure that I would've starved to death by about noon or so. Good thing my house has lots of Boxelder bugs. Otherwise, I'd probably have to resort to eating my next-door neighbors.

Oh well, baseball still beats golf. At least people get hurt in baseball.

Great! Thanks for all the info. Now I can go to bed a much wiser lokoike.

I agree. I think both the installer packages and the websites they are obtained from should contain a message stating that Kaspersky's warnings are erroneous, and maybe even suggest that an alternative antivirus is used until this problem is fixed. If KAV's makers realize that people are foregoing their product due to a bug, maybe then they'll start considering paying attention to other software makers, such as MrG. @ DjLizard: I have a stupid question: can you make a Delphi installer for a VB program, or did you mean rewrite CCleaner in Delphi as well? I haven't extensively programmed in VB, and I've never touched Delphi, so I'm pretty much a coding n00b.

If you scroll down to about the middle of the page, it says: Apparently the New Technology File System (what a lame name) fixed that problem in 2000/XP. Thanks for the useful info, hazelnut.

As a note to anyone else who plans on playing this: Turn down your speakers if you just got done banging your head to Rammstein before you play. Good thing I never go on-line without my trusty defibrillator...

An Athlon 2000+ shouldn't hardly generate any heat in the first place. The stock cooler that comes with it should be more than adequate. I've installed several Athlon 3200+'s which use the same cooler, and they don't get anywhere near that hot! So, my best guess is either your mobo's thermometer is way off, or you didn't properly attach the cooler or the cooler's power cable for the fan. Have you mounted a cooler on a CPU before? They can be kind of tricky for first-time users, so perhaps the heatsink isn't contacting the CPU. Also, if you didn't hook the fan's power cable into the correct spot on the mobo, your fan may not be running. It wouldn't take long for your heatsink/CPU to overheat, and if you do that too many times, your proc is toast! Make sure everything is properly attached and contacting before you start it up again. Your GPU wouldn't affect the CPU's temperature (unless it is blowing its heat right on the CPU), although it could potentially be the reason your comp keeps crashing, assuming the CPU temp reader is faulty and your CPU is okay. Let me know what you find out.

My 16th birthday totally blew, but my 18th birthday rocked! So, if you like being 16, just wait till you're legally an adult. It really is all it's cracked up to be (other than the job, the bills, and assuming you're a bachelor, the having to cook for yourself). And yeah, baby-making FTL.

Hmm... I wish I knew how to code in JS, all I've ever really done is BASIC. I have a suggestion, but I don't know if JS offers the capabilities to do it. Say you want a 4-digit whole number (anywhere from 0-9999): Use the random function to create a random number, and then multiply it by 10. Then truncate it (as opposed to rounding it) so that the remainder is dropped and you are left with a whole number between 0-9. The reason you truncate instead of round is so that you don't accidently end up with 10 as your number. Hopefully JS has a truncate feature... Then take that number and save it as a string. Hopefully JS can save numbers as strings... Then, do the same process three more times, saving each of the numbers as strings, so that JS treats them like text instead of like numbers. Once you have four 1-digit numbers saved as strings, add all of the strings together to make it one 4 character string. Perhaps you ended up with the numbers 0, 3, 4, and 1. Turn them into strings ("0","3","4", and "1") and add them together ("0341"). Hopefully JS can add the strings that you were hopefully able to make in the first place... And finally, convert your 4-character string back into a number, in this case 341. Hopefully JS can do that too... So, needless to say, this suggestion is based totally on the premise that JS contains basic string functions. If it does, that should solve your problem.

Damn literalists. Okay, I admit, I was rolling. I've been playing around with that AVS Disc Creator, and it gets my vote as well. And how cool is Blu-Ray support?!

Yeah, I know, it's pretty sad. What can I say, I love the little guy!

Haha, that's awesome! To put it in perspective, my graphing calculator has 128k of RAM, and it only weighs a 1.5 pounds!!

I found that especially funny cause I have some friends who get off on the whole MySpace trip. Thanks for the info, chiawaikian. I always find your articles interesting and helpful.
