I've got the same errors you experienced CeeCee. What I did was to reset the entire registry permissions to defaults. This link fixed my installation problems, including YM. I'm not sure if permission is the problem in your case, but it's worth a try.

I use Firefox because of its add-ons, and probably its security. I tried Opera, but I missed most of the extensions I use in Firefox. I want to install IE7Pro in IE7 but my bro doesn't want me to, thinking I don't know what it is.

your first connection was to a server in the USA, the second was closer to home. For that speed test to work reliably you have to connect to a server in your area (or on the same continent at least!)
The server in our area messes up my results, so I don't use it. If it was reliable, then I would've posted it in the first place.

LEVEL #3 For the MORE ADVANCED USER
These defragment programs fill the needs of those with very specialized needs.They also tend to include more advanced disk optimization stategies.This includes those users with complex systems and/or large volumes of data.
Some of these products are free.Some free products out perform commercial products.
Arguments can be made for the use or non-use of each.It really depends on the users needs.
Using JkDefrag here. Light, portable, and quick.

I envy your ISP guys. Most of your subscription gives megabits per second. We're still stuck with the "Oh 5x faster than dial up!"

Something's messing up my download speed here.

At first I wondered why people complained about the ending of the movie. Now I know how the movie really goes. Brings me back good ol' memories of some girls screamin' in terror.

I think it depends on a user's needs. Each OS gives functionality either missing or incomplete in another OS. So a user must know what he needs to find in an OS for maximum productivity. In my case, I'll stick to Windows XP. It just works. All things I use are just there.

Kinda makes me lungs live shorter. I'll wait for a daredevil.

Reminds me of the Columbine High School incident, and I'm not even in North America!

Just messing up with my system

What a hefty man bidding with a hefty price! Next time food corporations could create unexpectedly-shaped products (intentionally or unintentionally) and sell for a hefty price! I could buy a high-end tower desktop here with that ?700.

So far I didn't notice any slowdowns with the new version. I still don't feel those new features, but I know they're active. Well I'll just say it works just the way it should.

It seems that browsing for extensions especially themes became a challenge. The old site functioned very well. The new one just sucks, big time. Why do they have to mess up something that is fixed?

Did you try MediaCoder?

It's not that I smiled, I laughed really hard! I really laughed at No. 3.

I found this here
RegistryCCleaner even has a built-in Registry Cleaner. It's not the best (not CCleaner's main function), but it will find invaild registry entries that most Registry Cleaners will not. Unlike the Disk Cleaners with a Registry Cleaner, CCleaner does really fast scanning for Registry Issues. The reason is CCleaner doesn't want to effect Windows performance or effect any applications. It's better to be safe than sorry!
So it may not be up to par with the rest of the registry scanners, but most of the entries it found are safe to remove while other registry cleaners can show up needed registry entries that may look unecessary.

Free, non-intrusive (without pop-ups about different stuff, like settings etc.), good firewall I could install on my parents' computers?
Inbound firewalls doesn't alert too much or doesn't alert at all. Some or most firewalls can be configured not to check outbound connections so they won't ask the user everytime if application X is hooked to application Y and wants to use the net etc etc. One firewall would be Windows XP's firewall. It is near to absolute unobtrusiveness.
-
Comodo can be configure to be a pure firewall, meaning to say disabling the HIPS part can be big bonus to unobtrusiveness. Online Armor Free provides good outbound protection with high leaktest results. I don't know the inbound capabilities of the two.
There are still installers of the free Kerio and the good ol' Sygate. I suggest you gear up their computers first so they won't carry the hassle of configuration. If possible, you can buy them a hardware firewall.

Sweet NASA content. Yay!
Yeah it's pretty fascinating. It makes me wonder more about the universe's mysteries.
