I am well aware the posts I link to from YouTube is complete layperson level. That said, it serves its purpose. "Now that was close" said Sigmond's husband. These posts are clearly *not* automated, they are made by a pill popping insomniac with an axe to grind who has way too much time on his hands. It was Sigmond who stated that he and his work friends used to steal people's mail all the time and it was harmless fun to his way of thinking. Sigmond is trying "really hard" to project their trolling crap onto DFS. For over a decade Sigmond has pressed the theory that DFS needs 'evidence' to point out all his forgeries. The fact is that no one needs any proof to do that. So Sigmond pulls this nonsensical flooding garbage in an incompetent attempt to 'push' the idea that DFS is like him. What do you get out of lying? Usenet is a self-governing convention based on virtue that Sigmond lacks. Sigmond has cut down on the hundreds of self-serving, bullshit threads he used to post but he's surely unchanged in the honor area. He just uses puppets more to make those attacks. -- This broke the Internet! https://youtu.be/dNhvVfD4zu4 http://www.5z8.info/facebook-of-sex_w4l4wg_bomb Jonas Eklundh Communication AB

Annoying stuff to say the least. Ive got a few movies on VuDu, a couple on Google, a couple on Amazon — but I'm not really that much into storing bought movies online yet. We do stream from Amazon, Redbox, Vudu and Netflix. (My wife is currently trying out Hulu, but we won't be keeping all of them.) -- The more I see of Windows, the more I like Linux.

After yesterday's update I no longer have a working system. Thanks Linux! Both Klaus Schadenfreude and Archimedes had their malfunctions and their messes. One played it dishonestly and didn't do anything too publicly that could not be obfuscated with a larger scandal. I have known turnips who argue better than you do. Like most everyone else in political groups, Takuya Saitoh relies on false news to concoct his opinions on current events. Ergo, he only is familiar with and speaks of the authenticated accounts which also are the ones which characterize liberals in a acutely kind and educated slant. I have worked in or with the computer repair industry for more than 45 years. I have worked with multibillion companies selling to the aeronautics industry and the worlds largest companies. Never, not even once, were we ever instructed not to install any version of Linux. We sold AIX, Ultix, QNX, among others in addition to Windows. I'm not going to play like Klaus Schadenfreude did not give me good advice on my network and I am indebted to him for it. Takuya Saitoh has this thread to copy and can begin to appear like he grew a brain from this day forward ;) So, yeah, I buy into my own make believe world, fully knowing Takuya Saitoh has been fooled, because it makes me reconsider my code, improving it. -- Eight things to never feed your dog https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OffkiSAsYo8 http://jeff-relf.me/Cola_Regs.HTM Jonas Eklundh Communication AB

I'm guessing the sock frenzy stalker has gone ballistic again. Linus Torvalds is a false advocate's only reason for living. Not long ago I did work on and showed some Visual C++ for the front end which is the only thing you can do when trying to avoid Klaus Schadenfreude's dishonest crap while reading with Google Groups. Requesting Klaus Schadenfreude to atone, as fruitless as it is, is different than referencing his trolling. My bottom line was that advocates come here *to* assail aberrant behavior. It is not like honest people do not know what this forum is, Sandman especially. Lines of text containing tells. Like most everyone else in this group, Klaus Schadenfreude relies on biased media to blindly inform convictions on subjects. Hence, he only thinks of and listens to the government stories which also happens to be the ones which paint climate change in a highly hopeful and respectable view. I would counter Klaus Schadenfreude honestly but he's a blockhead who screws around to achieve his yearning to call everyone a cheat. Sandman can create a virtual machine.

I'm not crazy about HP, but my wife likes their laptops. I wanted to get her a business laptop, like a Latitude, she wanted something "sleeker." I stupidly thought a new i7 would be able to run the Hobbyware OS without issues. And it did, up until Microshit the first time. Microshit updates are dangerous to the health of Windows Hobbyware infested computers. -- The more I see of Windows, the more I like Linux.

Step 2: Take the machine to someone who knows what they are doing because obviously you are an idiot who shouldn't be allowed within 10 feet of a computer. Step 3: Apologize to your wife for fucking up her PC.

The problem with Windows is that when it works, it works rather well but when it fails it fails leaving the user searching for remedies to solve the problem. So recently a client of mine was trying to upgrade Oracle Virtual Box under Windows 10 and it failed complaining bout missing files. My first question was "what did you do" and his answer was "nothing, I started my current version of oracle and it suggested an upgrade, I clicked on it and it failed with the message "cannot find file ****"". Again, I ask, what did you do? So this time he mentions CCcLeaner.. Ahh, ok so you ran this one? Yes and it found all kinds of problems. I ask "did you save a copy of the current registry"? Answer is no. So, to make things simple, I can't upgrade to a newer version of VB because certain files are missing. I can't un-install from Add/Remove Programs for the same reason. So I go brute force and remove everything I can find regarding VB. Fine, except that certain driver files are in use and cannot be removed. Ok, I work around that one, not easy and scan the registry for everything "Oracle related" and delete. Still can't upgrade. So I try a new approach and just install the older version, the one that was supposed to be on the machine before this nightmare started, and it works. After this is confirmed as working, I tried upgrading to latest version. Still fails. So now I try remove programs again, and this time it works. So finally, I fresh install the latest version of VB. Go Windows, I just love how user friendly you are.

What is your evidence? Where did you learn to program? It was Flooder Steve Carroll who got caught using untold numbers of accounts like a moron, and these are 'people' who come out of the blue straight into threads where he was getting his ass handed to him... by Snit for over a decade. - "You'll notice how quickly he loses interest when everything is about him. He clearly wants the attention" Steve Carroll, making the dumbest comment ever uttered.

I'm not even going to fight it anymore. Next time Windows goes kaput on my wife, I'm just going to back up the files and reinstall. Everything else seems like a waste of time. Maybe by then I will have run some kind of imaging program (as suggested by others), so it will be easier. -- The more I see of Windows, the more I like Linux.

Which can only be DFS. My uptime is almost sixty-one weeks and I am ready to go see a doctor! What is the group coming to when a DFS insult can not get any traction? Unfortunately there are too many "works for me" false "advocates" and not enough people with enough understanding to help the people with old computers. Bravo, Klaus Schadenfreude, you are now living rent-free inside DFS's beady little brain. Ha! Sadly this is what results when dangerously negative self confidence takes over DFS's persona. With no evidence at all, as is usual for DFS. Linus Torvalds is a false advocate's hero. -- Do not click this link! http://www.5z8.info/hack-outlook_c6c9in_michaelangelo-virus https://youtu.be/E3m_i-x92D0 http://tinyurl.com/gsleb4p Jonas Eklundh Communication AB

Get Macrium Reflect Free and set it up for nightly backup using a differential scheme. FWIW, I think you have a serious hardware problem. In your case, I would save all data, restore to HP factory and only accept updates from HP. Sometimes companies like HP and Dell have customized updates. Sucks, but that's how it goes. See if that works for you. If not, make a warranty claim.
