RE: How to extract a download address?
You can also right click and go "copy link location" and it should copy to the clipboard, and I guess you can paste it into this flashget thing. This won't always work because some sites serve up files after verifying you with some sort of [generi...

RE: Pagefile Recommendation
The default settings should do. FireFox doesn't keep a "temporary internet files" directory, it keeps all this in ram, so if you like to keep your firefox open for weeks on youtube, some page file would be advisable, not that I've ever had firefo...

RE: NBHGui.exe, do I need it?
My guess would be it's a shell binding to securdisk functions. If you don't have any securdisk disks, you probably won't be missing anything by killing it. Your CD drive might not support securdisk anyway. You might not want to kill it while you'...

RE: Running an experiment
I had an always on win 2k computer connected to cable with no firewall at all for three years straight, no breaches. The real risk factor is the use. If you're going to use IE and have all sorts of client side scripting on by default, and download u...

RE: Do I need any special settings? (Two routers)
probably just set up the outside router to use the DHCP server of the inside router, and you should be in business by my guess.

RE: Save All Highlighted Images
or, save page as and then rm everything in the directory that's not images.

RE: wireless router :tongue:
Hey Futureboy/girl, this is 2007, we're still using Linux 2.6. Maybe they dropped support for some old cards sometime 2010-2020. Try an older IP stack. Otherwise, try a complete power cycle. The router at my last place would always crash for some r...

RE: YAY Free ubuntu CD's again!
Honestly, the statement is taken out of context a bit, and was made during the beginnings of the dell Linux kerfuffle. I think what he was trying to say was a disclaimer to stop the birth of millions of n00bs, especially the ones that will give up a...

RE: [Fixed] HELP! Major computer ouchie!
hey cookie, does osa do something every time you try to open a document? or is it just one of those startup daemons that force a cache of a program in memory?

RE: YAY Free ubuntu CD's again!
Mr. Shuttleworth mentioned recently that he doesn't think Linux is ready for the desktop yet. I think the more important thing is, people don't understand it. I installed Debian on my fathers computer [I'm staying here for a few months, might as ...

RE: error safe redirect?
You're quite right, there are a lot of non-javascript security problems out there. I'm not even sure, but I think NoScript leaves about:blank scripts on. However, together with FF/IW which I'm pretty sure have ActiveX scripts [even worse] off by ...

RE: error safe redirect?
I'm not sure if this will fix it, but if you're using firefox or iceweasel with the NoScript plugin, you can turn off meta redirects. I use it to get around Microsoft forums that redirect you if you turn javashit off. You do have to make that one e...

RE: Lock messages on k800i
Just another reason phone companies should open source their phones. Just about every phone has some sort of broken behaviour that would be so easy to fix! Like my fathers Nokia, which can be unlocked without sliding open the button drawer thing. Eve...

RE: messenger for linux?
So people say. Programming for X in C is not fun at all. However, the higher level tools are usually pretty good. Gtk is a lot to digest and I've never used Qt but I assume it's the same story. There's a really good python front end to Gtk, who'...

RE: Vista Administrator Account (revealed)
I was enumerating reasons you might need to upgrade to Vista, with the suggestion that you can put it off while XP is working fine for you. It's a fair amount of money for a change of drapes, and there are probably better things you can get out of ...

RE: Vista Administrator Account (revealed)
I'm not saying it could or even should work perfectly- bugs are a part of life. There were some serious API changes between the 5.2 and 6.0 kernels, and it makes sense that some side effects will come of that. I'm just saying, if having your compu...

RE: messenger for linux?
Well, if you care about all your apps looking the same. If you install from binaries, which most Linux users do, it doesn't matter any more than that. And if you're a source-y, you've probably already got KDE headers and what not laying around an...

RE: Vista Administrator Account (revealed)
As far as I see it, you upgrade to Vista for one or more of two reasons: 1. XP's default theme has strange side effects on you. 2. You NEED DirectseX 10. Otherwise, your money can probably be better spent elsewhere. The price of Vista will get you ...

I think you've got your messengers mixed up :P I'm looking at working on a number of Plus! features into Gaim, but with my current schedule and the quality of Gaim code it will most likely never get done. @ICD: I've heard good things about kopete...

RE: Downloading SP2
Not true, there were a high number of false positives, mine included. I recommend abusing your OEM if this fixes the problem. Besides, SP2 will reinstall it anyway.
