Plus, you need to beware. Stedmans is not free, you have to pay no matter what version you get.

Of course. Where did I say it prevented ALL viruses? sm
However, if you do any research, you'll find that switching to Firefox drastically reduces your exposure to viruses. Additionally, plug-ins for Firefox further increase protection against some viruses, such as those that come through Active-X. The e-mail program you use as well as common sense of not opening attachments from people you don't know also help.

I have had WAY too many viruses come from limewire. sm.
Be very careful about music and video sharing and downloading through them. I tried them about a year ago and nearly every song downloaded had poor quality of wasn't the correct song. The first worm I got was not that bad, but then I got an actual virus. Had to totally wipe my computer. I was NOT happy.

Take him with you. He's already attached to you. sm
He'll be heartbroken if you leave him. Once you are at the new place, don't let him outside loose as he will probably run away and in strange surroundings will be unable to find his way back home. It is too dangerous for cats loose outdoors anyway. Cars, nasty people who like to hurt cats, coyotes, big hawks. Uh, uh. He's safer inside. It will take him awhile to get adjusted to his new home. You'll just have to put up with his crying to get out. He'll stop that eventually. You can use a halter and walk him on a leash once you check out the neighborhood yourself to be sure no dogs are going to jump on him. FosterSmith even has the "kittywalk" items including a little cart on wheels you can roll him around the neighborhood in. I have the kittywalks tunnels on my deck for my indoor cats, and they love it in the summertime. Good luck.

They probably get attached just like us
You know how we get so attached to them. I imagine that the judges and Ryan have their certain picks too. It would have to be hard not to. I know they can't broadcast their favorites like we do though. I remember Ryan seemed to sort of have Lisa Tucker "under his wing" too. He seemed very protective of her, especially when she was voted off. As much as I love Taylor, I still really liked Elliott because of his great attitude and the relationship with his mom. I liked Katherine okay too until last night I kind of got turned off by several things. SOUL PATROL!

RayGuy, do you get a lot of viruses with limewire?

Not RadGuy, but yes, you can get viruses with Limewire.
I just fixed my friend's computer. She had about 20 viruses and trojan horses, not to mention over 300 Spyware entries. It took me about 6 hours to get it back to proper working order. The only thing she had was Limewire.

I had literally thousands of viruses using that.
It broke a record for what my computer guys had seen. I use TrendMicro now.

Yes, and I swear I've gotten viruses

from tech support screwing around. I now have a new one, and no, I will never work on platform again or have anyone be on my computer through a meeting. If it's not FTP work using Word, no way will I let a company mess around.

I think they do more harm than good!

Well, was supposed to be attached..sm

Absolutely not! We wound up with spyware and viruses because

none of them are that Internet savvy. Oh, a popup that says it's going to protect my computer. Let's click on it! Oh, no! A virus and spyware.

I'm not risking losing my files, compromising the security of my documents, or spending valuable time cleaning up their messes. I bought myself a new computer so they get the old one now.

un- attached chest port?

My son has a chest port. He can lift up three corners of the port, make a pocket out of loose skin and slid his thumb under the port. He says the port is supposed to float freely within a tissue pocket created in his chest. It is his belief the port is Not sutured to anything inside him, like, say, the chest wall for example. Hmmmm! I am seeking outside opinions as he and I disagree. Please let me know what you think.

In Joy,

The pedal is attached to the C-phone.

Is the foot pedal attached? nm

How many of you that use computers know how to do updates, repairs, clean up viruses, etc?
Just because I work every day using a computer, my husband has said tonight he thinks I should go to a computer class because I spent out $150 today for a person to come and get rid of several viruses on my computer. I asked my husband if he were so interested in this, why didnt he go to computer class and learn himself. I said I was coming on MTstars and just see how many of us transcriptionists also do our own repairs. Ok, MTers, now is your time to speak up!

Here are some great recipes in link attached.
Enjoy! (I hope I did this right)

So it might well be that free AV users infect others' computers withj viruses.?..nm

I wish I knew enough to help. My daughter had viruses totally shut her computer down
but hers did let me at least reinstall XP. I had a disc lying around from some of my old computers and it worked fine on it. The downside is that obviously when I reinstalled she lost all of her saved files, picture etc..but she had a working computer and that is all she cared about without having to replace the hard drive. I honestly wish I could help but I am not sure there is any way to transfer or recover what is on your computer if it will not even read a CD to burn to or a USB flash drive. Have you checked out the forums at Dell.com. I went to the troubleshooting area and it lead me to a tech support forum where I could enter in the error message and it told me what I could do to fix the problems and it did work. If nothing else, I would try to take it to a computer shop to have them assess it and let you know what is or is not salvageable. Good luck. I feel you pain.

Question	I get an attachment that is called winmail.dat but I can't open it. What can I do?
Problem	When someone uses Microsoft Outlook to send messages through the Internet with attachments and they use the Microsoft Outlook Rich Text format, some recipients report that the message includes an additional file called the Winmail.dat file. The Winmail.dat file is usually very small, but you cannot open it in the message. The original message attachment is not always separate from the Winmail.dat file attachment, and may be included in the Winmail.dat file attachment. This problem occurs because the Winmail.dat file is used to preserve formatting that the sending client includes in the message, but the receiving client does not recognize the Winmail.dat file. In Outlook, the Winmail.dat file includes Rich Text Formatting (RTF) instructions. This type of formatting is used with the Microsoft Outlook Rich Text format and when you use Microsoft Word as your e-mail editor. Only other Outlook users can read the attachments.
Resolution	To resolve this problem the person sending the attachments with Outlook needs to do the following: 1. On the Tools menu, click Options and then click Mail Format. 2. In Compose in this message format, click to select Plain Text, and then click OK.

First, a prepaired debit card is not attached to your bank at all. SM

It is a separate account set up for use with your prepaid debit card only. No checks. No bank. And with the prepaid card, they cannot withdraw money without your prior authorization. Your employer can only deposit money if your employer provides a signed DD form with your signature on it.

I've never had any problems with my card. I feel pretty secure. I do pay bills with my card, but rather than authorize a recurring monthly charge (which you can do), I opt to manually get on the money card website and pay each bill, each month. So consider this. Once you authorize a recurring bill payment, it sometimes takes an act of God to stop it.

PS! Also watch out for people who leave things attached to your doorknob -
I'm sitting right here in the front room (drapes usually drawn where I sit), and I not only hear them come up to leave stuff on the door, I ALSO hear them try the knob to see if it's unlocked. Pretty darned creepy how many low-lifes and predators there are out there.....

A special phone w/a foot pedal and headset attached for dialing directly into a system. Google it!
s

it is attached to your version of Word. Open Word and it'll be on your tool bar. NM
