    Hotmail someone trying to hack me?

    Monique my sister often has the same problem you seem to be having. Have absolutely no useful advice to give you, but at least you can feel a little better that it's not just you that hotmail is screwing over.

    You don't need to convince me of the pros of linux. This is my aprents comp, once I get my own comp going to setup up a dual linux\win xp pro system.

    How can I fix Windows hibernation issues?

    Thanx for the info guys. I've decided to have my comp never go into standby or hibernation mode, because realistically it is never not doing anything when it is on. If I leave it on overnight I will just manually turn the monitor off, and leave it running. This seems to work so far, I haven't...

    LaTeX Indexing in LaTeX: Setting up Sub-Entries

    Thanx for that, helped heaps. However I have still found no detailed info anywhere on the net. Once I get some cash I'll grab a copy of the "Latex COmpanion", but until then, I'm stumped on a few other things. For instance, how do you get the index to print the letter, eg: A Alphabet...

    LaTeX Indexing in LaTeX: Setting up Sub-Entries

    Hi Guys, I am currently writing two rather large articles with latex. I've added an index to each file, and am currently looking through each article and adding relevant references to bits and pieces so they'll show up in the index. That bit is easy, you just use the \index{The Text You Want...

    How can I fix Windows hibernation issues?

    Hi guys, I'm having problems with my computer when it goes into power saver mode. Now I'm all for this mode, becasue it saves a us a bit on electricity, when I leave it on overnight to defrag a disk or something. But the problem is that I can't get it to boot back up again afterwards. Or...

    Sieve of Eratosthenes - Programming in VB

    Well to create a status bar is the easy bit. You simply drag a statusbar onto your form. Let's suppose for the moment you name the statusbar, SB1. The status bar will sit at the bottom of the form. Now we need to add some panels to the status bar so that we can display information. In the global...

    MP4 Audio Help: DivX Can't Recognize AAC Format

    Can't remember if I told anyone. But GSpot couldn't identify the video, all it said was that it was a non-AVI format. Also Quicktime no longer allows me to play mp4 videos. SO I downloaded real one, (I hate it), but at least it allows you to download an mp4 specific codec and use it easily.

    Sieve of Eratosthenes - Programming in VB

    Yeah if you want to use list boxes just ignore all the code for datagrids, and keep all the math code. Then just fill a list box with the array data.

    Sieve of Eratosthenes - Programming in VB

    Thinking about it, if you are working with really large numbers, you may want to remove the initialization code from the form_load section and into a sub of its own, which you can call from form_load. This will allow the form to load properly, also add an "application.doevents" line into each...

    Sieve of Eratosthenes - Programming in VB

    I couldn't get your algorithm to work properly dduardo, probably me. So I altered it a little, and added code to display the final data in a datagrid, which allows easy viewing. Here is the code, (to use simply create a new windows application, and add a datagrid to the form. Note this was...

    How can I fix a multiple bootscreen problem in Windows XP?

    Yeah, the SP1 bit could be the problem. I tried replacing the ntoskrnl file and it worked fine, so atleast I know it can be done. I'll keep looking around I guess. *EDIT* Well the problem wasn't SP1 afterall. It was the filenames, they were to long. I shortened them a bit, and voila, it works!

    How can I fix a multiple bootscreen problem in Windows XP?

    Hi Guys, I decided I wanted to have the option of choosing between a few bootscreens upon startup of win xp. I downloaded some bootscreens, and renamed them, then put them into c:\windows\system32 as I was told to. I then went and backed up my boot.ini file, just in case. Then altered it, as...
