  1. Well I thought I had found a forum where this kind of BS wasn't going on.. Thanks to all this and I believe it is happening. I'm done here and will not be back. As for CClearner It works well but the first sign of anything it's gone too. If this is allowed by the maker of CClearner Then what might he allow in the program in the furture? adware? I know not right now, and Like I said I keep it for now. But the first time I hear of any doubt it's gone. Cause as far as I'm concern it's already had 2 strikes.. This being one. Don't bother to reply to this.. because I won't be back. But if you feel that You need to reply for others sakes that's up to you. I figure this will be removed by the same mods that love to play God here anyway. I enjoyed meeting some of you and I hope it all gets worked out, but I'm a member of other fine forums and don't need this crap. Peace out!

  2. I personally can't be arsed with all this gmail stuff, I stick with thunderbird and use it to collect my isp emails, my hotmail emails and my yahoo emails, and if I want to use email from any pc all of these provide that as well anyway.

     

     

     

    You get pop service with hotmail and yahoo free now? like you DO with gmail? Have to check that out. Last I heard you had to pay for it. But it's Free with gmail.

  3. I always set my cache to 0. I have had plenty of people tell me that's stupid. but it's always faster for me. I have a good speed broadband though. If I was on dailup I would have it set to a higher number. comparison or not it would still be faster, if on dailup. Which is what browser cache was designed for to begin with.

  4. What's New For Testing in Alpha 1

     

     

        * Phishing Detector --> Examines the contents of an e-mail message and warns you with a status bar along the top of the message if Thunderbird thinks this message is a phishing attack.

        * Spell As You Type for Mail Compose. (Enabled by Default)

        * Support for deleting and stripping attachments from e-mail.

        * Improved RSS Support --> Including podcasting, a new feed subscription UI, OPML import (export will be added in Alpha 2)

        * Re-designed Options Dialog

        * Improved UI under Account Settings for managing multiple SMTP accounts. If you have an account with multiple identities, you can even configure an SMTP server for each identity.

        * An Improved Spell Check Engine

        * Auto Save As Draft for mail composition.

        * Advanced hackers now have direct access to about:config for pref hacking (Tools / Options / Advanced / Config Editor)

        * Mailing lists in the address book now use LDAP during autocomplete if you are using LDAP.

        * Offline Improvements

        * Ability to have global inbox filters

        * Ability to copy local folders to imap servers

        * TLS Support for POP3

        * Support for Network timeouts for IMAP, POP3 and SMTP

        * Search and Filter Improvements (including the ability to create views or search/filter on flagged messages).

        * Many bug fixes and other improvements.

     

    I just did a cut and paste of what's new from the forums of thunderbird. But I can tell you this I like the global inbox filters the most so far. An example of how this works is having multi able email accounts and it running the filters on all of them without you having to do anything. Great for killing spam on several accounts super fast. I have mine set to kill the spam to the spam folder and mark them read. I also like the inline spell checker. Just like in a word processor when you type a word hit the space and if it's spelled wrong you get the red line under it. Right click on it and it gives you a list of words it thinks your trying to spell. Very much improved for the lousy spellers like myself. It's also faster overall. As you can see above there is lots of other things that have been added or improved, but I don't use most of them near as much.

  5. It's up to you of course, but removing the keys isn't as bad as it sounds. I did mine in about 30 minutes the first time I did it. And it feels and looks brand new afterwards. I understand though it does sound a bit scary. I would probably get a new one anyway, I hated the little tiny keyboard that came with my Dell. I need a man's size keyboard.. lol meaning I got big hands.

  6. every keyboard seems to be different, but what I do is pop off all the keys. It makes it very easy to clean out then. I put them on my desktop in the order I take them off so I can remember exactly how they go back. But if you forget most keyboards layouts are about the same, with a couple keys different. A lot of keyboards are made so the keys pop out easy for cleaning, but to know for sure your keyboard manual should tell you how to clean it. I don't think this method would be good for laptop/notebook computers.

  7. I'm 35, and it's good to see other older people here. I see lots of post by people in forums (not here) where you can just tell it was posted by a very young person, no ofense to the young folks intended. But even the young people on here seem to have a better grasp of life then on some forums. I like it here a lot! great app that had a side effect of a great forum!

  8. If some are like me they like to read and learn about the forums first before they do any real posting. At least that's what I always do. Sometimes too you guys do such a great job no one needs to say anything ;):D

  9. Uncheck Outlook Express from Add/Remove Components in Add/Remove Programs.

     

     

     

    In winXP that does not work. You can also uncheck IE but we all know it doesn't remove it either. It will remove the shortcuts but the program is still on your PC. In fact you can delete the folder outlook express and it will reappear with outlook express still there or it won't let you delete it at all.

  10. Installing TB shouldn't be any real problem, but to remove OE is some kind of a pain, and I just left mine rather then doing it. I wish there was a program that would do it for you.
