  3. It worked/s fine for me. They did have some problems after their last update though. Some users couldn't use it and some could. Here are articles that talk about Paypal's problems: PayPal Scrambling To Fix Site Glitch PayPal Outages Persist, Worry Users
  4. Programs Needed: Reglite.exe (available at “ http://www.resplendence.com/download/reglite.exe ”) Microsoft Recovery Console (an option available on your Windows CD or root drive) run “X:i386winnt32.exe /cmdcons” where “X” is either CD drive letter or is “C” for your root. HiJackThis.exe (available at “ http://download.com.com/3000-2144-10227352.html”) There are two application extensions (.dll) files that Need to be deleted. One is hidden, one is detected with “HiJackThis.exe” 1) With “Reglite.exe” find name of hidden file: Double Click on “AppInit_DLLs” located in “HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindows NTCurrentVersionWindows” The “value” window reveals the hidden file name. (mine was “hlpl.dll”, yours may be different!) In this example let’s call it “hidden.dll” 2) Rename the hidden file: Close Windows and reboot using “Windows Recovery Console” Go to “c:Windowssystem32” and do two things. Change file from read only by typing “attrib –r hidden.dll” Then rename it (I don’t know why, but this procedure did not work until I renamed it) type “rename hidden.dll nasty.dll” (and remember that “hidden.dll” is for this explanation only use the name you found earlier) Type “exit” and reboot to Windows. 3) Edit registry to remove hidden file Run “reglite.exe” again. Double Click on “AppInit_DLLs” located in “HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindows NTCurrentVersionWindows” Delete the file in “value” window, the “size” window changes also. “Apply” changes and exit “reglite.exe” 4) Edit registry to remove the second file Run “HiJackThis.exe” and scan the registry. Check the boxes to remove the following entries: “R1 - HKCUSoftwareMicrosoftInternet ExplorerMain,Search Bar = res://C:WINDOWSSystem32jheckb.dll/sp.html (obfuscated) R1 - HKCUSoftwareMicrosoftInternet ExplorerMain,Search Page = res://C:WINDOWSSystem32jheckb.dll/sp.html (obfuscated) R1 - HKCUSoftwareMicrosoftInternet ExplorerSearch,SearchAssistant = res://C:WINDOWSSystem32jheckb.dll/sp.html (obfuscated) R1 - HKLMSoftwareMicrosoftInternet ExplorerMain,Search Bar = res://C:WINDOWSSystem32jheckb.dll/sp.html (obfuscated) R1 - HKLMSoftwareMicrosoftInternet ExplorerMain,Search Page = res://C:WINDOWSSystem32jheckb.dll/sp.html (obfuscated) R0 - HKLMSoftwareMicrosoftInternet ExplorerSearch,SearchAssistant = res://C:WINDOWSSystem32jheckb.dll/sp.html (obfuscated) R1 - HKCUSoftwareMicrosoftInternet ExplorerMain,HomeOldSP = about:blank” (as you can see my second .dll was called “jheckb.dll” yours may be different) For this example let’s call it “obvious.dll”. Finally delete the two .dlls (“hidden.dll” and “obvious.dll”). You should be running again. Be careful.

  7. Dip, even if I thought you're worth to be invited by me for a gmail acct, I wouldn't waste the invitation to be filtered out by microsoft in your "yuck" hotmail... good luck
  8. it takes a lot of resources to track>prosecute who does that. Best will be to protect yourself and be aware of at least the most common scams. Try to learn what the security requirements, privacy policy, personal account management are of the company/organization you deal with. ex: web address of eBay sign-in page begins ONLY with http://signin.ebay.com/ for more info on eBay stuff go to: http://pages.ebay.com/help/confidence/isgw...heft-spoof.html http://pages.ebay.com/securitycenter/index.html be careful.
  9. seems like scam not spam... the link doesn't take you where it says. from my experience none self respecting financial institution will request such action through email. call them up to find out. take care
  10. Isaac Asimov turned androids into pop culture icons - and invented the science of robotics in the process. Now his classic I, Robot hits the big screen. [ 1 ] A robot may not injure a human being, or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm. [ 2 ] A robot must obey orders given it by human beings except where such orders conflict with the First Law. [ 3 ] A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law. film by Alex Proyas (The Crow, Dark City) official website: http://www.irobotmovie.com ++++++++++ I can't wait for July 16th.. check out the trailers: Apple - Trailer #1 Apple - Trailer #2 Apple - Trailer #3 Yahoo - FILM CLIP #1 - "Dr. Lanning's Lab" Official Site - Mock TV Spot Apple - FEATURETTE Intl.
