I bought a laptop with vista on and after a day of using it decided to put Ubuntu linux on. Best thing I ever did.
I found vist slow and full of so much stuff I didnt need. Its also worth doing a search on the DRM in vista scared the pants off me
Search found 20 matches

Have you done any adware scans? Do you have a program to do this if not this is what I normally use ADAWARE The free v...

Also the security on IE is quite appaling the amount of adware popups and viruses that can get through is quite scary. IE was good a few years ago. I read a blog from one of the designers of IE even he now felt that it was outdated and a security risk. The problem is a lot of people don't realise th...

I recomend downloading FIREFOX I not had problems with pop ups since ive been using it. Its a far better browser than IE. If you do download it though don't delete IE as windows updates need to use it.

Rad, How do you feel about member nominates candidates who are then chosen by the current ombuds? Or is that still not separate enough from the staff? I am just trying to think of ways to make the process easier from a logistical standpoint. :star: That sounds like a really good idea. Just gives th...

I dont think the mods admin should be voting the Ombudsman in, Otherwise they cant really be seen as independant. I think we need some system of memeberes voting them in otherwise it just looks like mods are just picking them. SO people could have a hard job thinking of them as totally independant. ...

I assume most people who spam don't put huge amount of details on there registrations. But the wai for confirmation may discourage them. It is difficult that somepeople who may need help may not have immediate access to the board. but then i worry about people who are already here. sometimes the spa...
