how i can prevent the little cutsies' of animations that are embedded in some emails i receive from 'moving i would assume they just add 'download' time from my server into O.E. i know how to get to 'advanced' tab within I.E. but don't know 'what' to check or uncheck or if this is even an Explorer situation or O.E. setting. i tried but couldn't make any headway. i hate to ask the sender not to include them but i don't want to hurt feelings either but that's a whole other 'advice' column.
How do i switch off all the flash animations of my fire fox1.5 browser? How do i switch off the flash plugin at all? How do i stop a fresh fire fox installation from popping up messages like, this page requires additional plugins.
I downloaded some windows updates but not all of them installed. When I go to Turn Off Computer, the "Turn Off" button has changed, indicating that when I hit it, it will install the updates. There's also a field I can click which will Turn Off without installing the updates. When I click the Turn Off buttion, it attempts to install two updates. It doesn't appear to be successful. Every time I Turn Off Computer it apparently tries to install the same two updates. I can reboot and do this over and over and they don't "take".There's nothing in Event Viewer to indicate what's going on. I couldn't find any installation logs though I'm not sure where to look.
I have just re-installed Windows XP Professional SP2 to a blank hard drive.I have re-installed Fax console. I would like to import the sent faxes, the received faxes, and the fax address book from the old drive (which is still perfectly workable). In what subdirectory are these items to be found? What are their filenames (or what is the template for the filenames)?

I have a modem/fax in my computer and I also have high speed Internet access using a DSL modem. I have connected the modem/fax and the DSL modem to the same phone line using the filter. I intalled the Winfax PRO software in order to use my computer for send/receive faxes. The installation was OK. But this software doesn't work. When I try to send a fax I give the number, I heard the tone but when the Winfax PRO software try to negotiate with the fax I receive an error and I lost the connection. I don't know If the problem is because my phone line was setup for DSL modem. Does anybody has the same problem? Until now I couldn't send or receive any fax.

I just purchased a new Dell Dimension 9100 (new line for Dell). I loaded Mcafee VirusScan, Firewall and Privacy Service and then downloaded updates for all of the preceeding Mcafee programs (there were many). I also downloaded all critical Windows Security downloads. Everything is working fine except when I work with wordpad/notepad/word or other Microsoft programs. At random, when I open these files, I recieve IE shutdown errors. I created a new wordpad and notepad file, saved both and re-opened them: everything seemed fine. Then I ran Windows Explorer and when I tried to open the wordpad file with explorer, I received IE shutdown errors.
I have a work computer that came with Microsoft Word 2007 already installed on it, i did not recieve any product key or anything. it let me use it 50 times, now it's locked me out and i can't touch it, i tried activating it but i can't without a product key. I tried explaining the situation to the microsoft tech support guy and he just told me i had to buy a product key. I had one of my friends tell me that the same thing happened to him, and that it was some sort of glitch in the '07 office program. Apparently there is a way around it on the internet, but i can't find it and i am by no means tech savvy when it comes to computers...
I have a Dell Inspiron 6400 Laptop that is one year old. It has 2GB of memory and a Duo Core T5600 processor. I am using Windows XP Home Edition with SP2. I have Norton 360 Version 2.0, Spy Sweeper, and Registry Mechanic installed. I have other programs such as Adobe Photoshop Elements 5.0, Microsoft Office 2003 with Word as my default, Google Email, and Family Tree Maker 2005 installed. Note that the laptop is a �small business� version instead of �Home and Home Office� version, if that makes any difference.
I have received my Windows Update notification that Service Pack 3 is ready for me to download. I have not downloaded yet. I have done some extensive research on problems with SP3 and have found a lot of information, much which is not too praising of SP3. However, most of the stuff that I have found on the internet is �older� stuff. I have searched MS data to see what they have posted about SP3 problems. What I am looking for here is has anyone had or know of any problems with SP3 that has been download say in the past three months or so?
I'm running XP Pro. Today I received a windows update notification (I have automatic updates set to inform me of available updates before installing). All the updates installed correctly except:Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 and .NET Framework 2.0 SP2 Security Update for Windows 2000, Windows Server 2003, and Windows XP x86 (KB979909)and Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 SP1 Security Update for Windows 2000 and Windows XP (KB979906).A summary of the related knowledge base pages regarding the failed installations tells me to uninstall, then reinstall all versions of net framework on this machine. Then go back to the Windows Update web site to check once again for updates to the newly reinstalled net framework versions.

I am running windows xp and outlook express. I often receive emails from friends who send me attachments that I cannot open.

Okay so I usually leave my computer on all the time. I went to bed and when I got up it was off and couldn't get it to turn on. So I assumed it might be the power supply so I went and bought a new one from stamples. He turned on for maybe 5 seconds then turned off. so I took it back thinking maybe I didn't have enough watts. The higher watts didn't doanything. I am lost without my computer can anyone help? I have Win XP..Could it be the fan? Even though the fan worked when i plugged in first PS...Second didnt do anything. Could it be something to do with motherboard?
I am getting a lot of e-mails with attachments that require an "Open with" window. Trouble is, I don't know what to choose and even doubt that I have the correct program to open it.
I use Microsoft Windows XP Pro SP3 with Microsoft Office Outlook 2003 SP3.
It has been my experience that, out of the dozen or so Junk e-mails that I receive every day in my Outlook Inbox on my computer, there are usually one or two that are actually not Junk at all, and those I have to identify as "Add Sender to Safe Sender's List" and re-route to my Inbox. It is for this reason that it is very important that all my e-mails are downloaded from the server to my computer - including the ones identified by the software as "Junk" - because the software obviously is not perfect.
A few weeks ago I noticed that I was not receiving my usual quantity of about a dozen Junk e-mails per day. I did not think too much about it at the time, because, although some days I did not receive any Junk e-mails at all, other days I might receive one or even two
My father has an HP SP2 computer. He is 76 now and can not figure alot of things out now. He asked me last night how to save pictures in emails. I told him to right click and save as whatever he wanted to call it. Well when he goes to My Pictures, there it is but there is nothing underneath it describing what it is. He has to put his cursor over it in order to find out what it is. Mine is not like that at all. It has the file name underneath it. What am I telling him to do wrong?
many emails received are in text form - have to go to bar above msg. and tell it to post in HTML format - but then most of the links that appear will not activate when I click on them! this is in XP, Outlook 2003

I can get the initial emails, but once the AVG runs the email scan, it times out and says cannot find the server.I have to hard reboot again in order to receive the emails.

In the last few weeks I have had many, many unwanted spam emails soliciting every things from soup to nuts. How can I eliminate the spam or at least minimize it.
I realise that this might not be the right group to be posting here but I am aware from past experience that this is where the most expertise in the widest field is. I have posted into the outlook group with no success so please help if you have any ideas.I have Windows XP with Outlook 2003. I have backed up my massive amount of emails (400MB) using Outlook Backup from Osirius This produces a .ebk file. Having used this program for smaller amounts of emails with no problems before I then placed the backup onto a disc and formatted thedrive. After loading XP and Outlook back on I then tried to restore my backup using the same program. But it runs through the restore procedure without any problems and when I open Outlook up again most of the emails are not there.
When I shut down my computer it installed a new version of Outlook Express and it no longer had my contacts or emails. I couldn't figure it out so I set back my computer to an earlier date and it was back to normal.Shut down my computer again and I have the new version of Outlook again with no address or emails. Any thoughts on what is going on and how I can get this fixed?
I was forced to re-install XP Home Edition yesterday due to a corrupt file that prevented boot up or a system restore from being run. Although I have been able to access a lot of my data, it seems that my emails have been lost. This is a really big deal as I'd used my mail as a filing system for various contacts and data etc. It's vital that I get it back. Does anyone know if the mails may be stored in an obscure folder somewhere at all? I should also mention that I do have a mirrored drive (which I removed during the reinstall to ensure that it wouldn't be effected in any way) but I have been unable to find the mails on here either.
Why do I have a big break in dates of emails listed or displayed. I go from July 13th to the next being June 11th. Is there anyway I can display all posted emails from this date back to say the last 300 emails posted sequentially? I tried unsubscribing and then resubscribing, but still have the same problem.
