Are you aware of all the "Chrome Browser freezeup problems" ? These were probably due to one of the updates from july's patch Tuesday,(July 9). The Chrome forum is full with people doing all sorts of weird trying to figure this out. As many as I've warned to leave it alone and wait, use a...
Got it all figured out my friend. I had never seen an icon like that either and that is why I posted in the forum. To make a long story short, I had bought a N router but it wasn't dual band and my one older laptop didn't have N capability if that makes sense. When I tried setting them up...
Okay, I just changed my router to a Linksys N instead of the the old WRT54g that served me so well for years and I set up my 18' Acer laptop and my 15 inch laptop and noticed that after they were up and running and I rebooted the small Acer 5100 x86 it had a normal tray icon (step bars) but...
I was just about to send you a hyperlink to OpenDNS, but then I thought the forrum probably has some rules about links to other sites for whatever reason and I don't need them to get pissed at me for posting links. Better safe than sorry, right. I have TCPview. I went to look it up and I just...
Wow, you are right behind this. I was with you on your process until you got to the filter. What filter would I be loading and what is the purpose of said filter? I've seen that, I just didn't want to bite off more than I could chew. If I take this in small steps I'll have an easier time of it...
Right when I was about to write you back about color I noticed in the second half of the message that you mentioned it. Because I had no colored columns or lines and I see now that you have to make your own. Kind of unlike them. Their other programs from Sys, already have the colors built in...
Thanks for the response. Well I downloaded Net Mon and yes what an amount of traffic to view. It is a bit overwhelming for me, but I will try and persevere. I am sending you a couple of attachments to look at because there are things I don't understand about the traffic on it. The second one has...
Thanks SG. Just as I expected. I just wonder why it runs for so long sometimes at such a high rate when all apps and sites are closed. Had to reboot to stop it from counting once as it just seemed to keep going.
I watch videos on a site and when I finish watching the bandwidth in DU Meter keeps running at 400-500 KB's/s. It would appear that it's like the videos are still running but they are not because the site and anything to do with it is shutdown. Not even a browser is running. Task manager tells...
I was reading today HowTo Geek and came across an article about UPNP and how dangerous it was to leave it running due to security holes that can be exploited. Just offhand I decided to disable it in my router to see if there was any problems. Well, I was unable to connect to the internet. Now...
You asked me above if I had a Gmail account and if I added it to Outlook. I do have a Gmail acct. but I added it with the Hotmail account which is now Outlook.com and I get my Gmail and hotmail in Outlook by means of the Outlook connector. I also have a local webmail account provided by my ISP...
I remember seeing the prompt about "2010 wanting to sync" I clicked yes of course so you are probably right. I like Office 2010, it's just a little cluttered for me and it was only a trial, so no harm, no foul.
Lucky you not having the Google service. I have 2 of them so they must really hate me. Why they find it in their hearts to give me 2 update(r) services is beyond me. I uninstalled Office 2010 to see if it was something to do with that and it appears that could have been the culprit, although I...
I ran across an issue when I booted my computer this morning. One of the tray icons was missing that usually shows and my cursor was spinning non-stop. Not to mention nothing else worked. It was frozen, so I pressed the power button and restarted it that way,Normal, not in safe mode. I'm...
I was emptying my external drive to start some new backups and I noticed that there was a msdia.dll in the directory of the external drive. How did it get there and should I delete it? Or is it OK there? I'ts a MS Debug Information Accessor. dll, whatever it does or is.
