Yo!
I'm going to be offline for a while while I reconfigure my system to take advantage of the new server and server software I've installed.
I've advised the glazier that a number of patches will be required to cover monitor shaped holes in my office window ;) over the next day or so...
Should be fully back online over the weekend sometime.
Just don't enjoy yourselves too much while I'm slaving away you rotters :twisted:

Ah it's a reply to another thread.
Although the advice is sound it is confusing especially when mixed with text speak.
Be very careful when playing with system files as a wrong move can lead to your computer's operating system not starting.
If in doubt leave well alone and get a professional to do it instead(they're insured or should be).

If you take sugar in your coffee then the prognosis is not good. Sugar attacks the circuit board and will usually mean that the electronic item is unreliable or nonfunctional.
If you drop coke, coffee or whatever onto your keyboard immediately unplug it, remove any batteries (for wireless ones) and place it in a bath of cold water. If you get chance take it apart and gently sponge the circuit board with clean water - no solvents or soaps. Allow to dry completely (at least 24 hours), re-assemble (if you took it apart) and try it.
In the meantime start saving for a new keyboard as the likelihood is that the old one will never be the same again.
Make a note not to allow drinks within spilling distance of your keyboard and bolt the stable door ;)

Hehe, my brother had something similar (CBR600) and wrote it off, along with his leathers! He limped away more or less undamaged though...
I'd love to have a bike, but the answer is no (usually followed by 'fucking way')
A good set of leathers works wonders for keeping your skin!
My last bike was a CBR600 got it new, August plate, in 1987! Red and silver it was - got it to match my helmet (honest).
I must admit that if I got one I would be a "fair weather biker" now. The old joints couldn't put up with the rain and the cold.

I very nearly went and ordered a 'Blade. The only thing stopping me is the knowledge that I'm likely to wrap myself around a tree in very short order.

Some of you may know that I used to be a very keen motorcyclist - effing fanatic more like. Even spent some time (2 years) as a despatch rider in London.
Today a friend lent me his FZ750. It was the first time I'd been on a bike in 15 years :shock:
I want one so bad it hurts.
I'm not speaking to him at the moment :taz:
At least he said I can borrow it whenever I like - do you think all day, every day would be a little too much?

Yes I'm here, been lurking mainly as I've now moved the office (well nearly). Need to sort out the bedrooms and landing yet then I'm done (and I will be).
Going to be offline for a while as I update the servers to 2003 etc later this week. In theory one day, in practice about a week
All part of the grand plan wot is taking a lot longer than expected...

Erm sorry I didn't spot this earlier - been decorating .
If you have a problem with a virus or worm start Windows in "Safe Mode" (press the F8 button when the little white lines go across the bottom of the screen on start up). Run your Antivirus, Adaware and Spybot in safe mode and they will usually knobble the little buggers.
Make sure you have Tea Timer switched on (part of Spybot) as that will stop the little buggers from altering your Registry.

This is a common email trick called "Spoofing", where the sender forges the "From:" email address.
There are a number of new viruses (virii?) out and about so make sure your Virus Definitions are up to date. And don't open any emails with attachments from people you don't know or you aren't expecting.

Techie help need ed here too......I am using a Mercury 10/1000Mbps for LAN Ethernet interface and using cables. I have been told I can use the same router if I obtain a wireless access point, is this true. Also can anyone tell me the maximum length of cable run permitted with such a system (I am using 10 metres at the moment and this is fine for the two rooms I am using but I want to extend it to another room which will need about 15 or 16 metres. Will this be OK ???? Sorry to hijack the original thread.
Judy
Judy,
As mentioned before you can run up to 100 metres of cable, there are some caveats but for 15-16 metres you won't have a problem.
If you obtain a Wireless Router you can plug it into your Mercury Router and you should have wireless capability. The Wireless Router which is the easiest to set up is a Belkin. Whatever you do please secure it otherwise the world and his wife will be able to use your connection (not good when the Old Bill comes knocking to ask you to "accompany them down to the station" for sending terrorist type emails!!).
