while we're on the topic of Norton, Microsoft Anti-Spy considers it a threat to the computer. for more details: http://it.slashdot.org/it/06/02/11/2259232.shtml edit:the comments are more informing rather than the issue

today i tried XPize because i've heard some good things about it. so i did and i noticed that it changed my Boot Screen, theme, and a lot of stuff. but all of it sucked because it didnt change any shell icons and the theme was just Royale. so my question is, which program do i need to change it. i've already tried that program by WinCustomize BootSkin but it sucked and made me go into Safe Mode so i could go back to the regular one so that it could boot proparly.
-
one question. did this start with version 3.0 or earlier?
-
wait so are you saying he should get EZ or not get EZ?
-
i'm not using Norton's gay firewall, just the av. anyways i just uninstalled it using CCleaner and an extra utility from symantec.com so that it's fully removed. i checked all the folders so i hope it is. right now ima try getting EZ AntiVirus. will post feedback.

right now i have Norton AV 2004 with a paid subscription. however lately it's been pissing me off. when i try to dl a zip or rar file with Opera, FF, IE, or anything else, it tries to scan the file which makes the program downloading the file not respond. i dont know if this happens with other AVs since i have only used Norton. so my question is, should i stick with Norton or get another AV. also if i plan to get another AV, should i wait for the subscription to end?(it ends 5/13/06)

yeah i already know that my sound card is crap. it was prolly made in 1992 or something. i found out that my soundcard is a crappy adlab one. according to wikipedia, Creative > adlab so yeah. im also gonna open the case so i can look into it. perhaps if i get time, i might steal the floppy drive from my other f***ed up and virus infected computer so i can use floppys. i dont have a floppy drive on this one so yeah. also i found out a messed up but workish idea which makes the sound go in 2 speakers at once.
-
well. i think i'll try that. i hope i dont break the comp though.
-
none of this helps. i told you that it's a problem with the sound card and not the computer's configuration. all the wiring and everything is fine but it still produces the same results.
-
right now i have an issue with my sound card. when i play some music, the music always plays fine but the left speaker sound very lower than the right speaker. i know this is a problem with the sound card because the Balance thing is at the middle everywhere. so...any thoughts?

Photobie is also nice
-
Kerio also has built-in ad blocking but it sucks if you use BitTorrent or any other software which dls that kind of stuff. @lokoike:isnt that only in the Pro version? i used ZoneAlarm Free one(newest version) and i didnt see an option like that.
-
oh. my mistake. anyways here's my new desktop. it uses clearONE and playing a very good song . also uses RK Launcher and the Synaptic Terminal Wallpaper.
-
it's even happened in final releases too. i did put up a suggestion to put the auto-update thing on another Thread(not to be confused with thread) but it never happened.
-
another question. how do you get clearONE's video window to be in seperate windows? i've been using clearONE for quite some time and i haven't seen that functionality.
-
well... i never said i wanted help. i just gave out a comment stating that it breaks all Windows Messenger functionallity even if you reinstall.
-
you must not have a brain. i already stated that the service was on. services.msc, Autoruns, and Ad-Aware all say that it's on
-
CCleaner should have this listed. im using IE Beta 2 Preview and it shows up just fine.
-
that program is hella evil. when i used it, it stopped Windows Messenger from working completely. the service was on, i reinstalled, i did everything and it never launched. so i have to use Trillian.
-
<sarcasm>for your next media player, an iRiver H140 is always a nice choice with the RockBox replacement</sarcasm> so basically iPods can cause hearing loss. that's just plain stupid of Apple to do something like that.
-
i just found a website that had its own mirror for RK Launcher so right now im using it. i have to say that im impressed. it offers pretty much every feature that i use in ObjectDock and it's way smaller. i think ima stick to RK Launcher for now. also the moving to trash thing works edit:also does anyone know if i can change the background of the dock?
-
i can't try it because the main download link is down. everytime i try it gives a 404. i also couldn't find it on FileHippo.

Bugs when the spanish translation is used
JohnDemolition replied to Peffram's topic in CCleaner Bug Reporting
i don't think that it's a bug because that's an InputBox Control. IIRC, there isnt a way to change the Text for those Buttons unless Mr.G made his own Windows to do this. -
does anyone know of a good Dock program that supports drag/dropping on an application? what i mean by that is, let's say i put a recycle bin on the dock. when i want to delete a file, i just drag it onto the bin and it goes in there. Mac OS X Tiger has this ability but my current dock program(ObjectDock Plus) does not. so anyone know of one that can do this? for windows?
