    Program added without my knowledge?

    or somebody... could you help me out here. I know the virus is in there, but I haven't located the file(s) yet, like I thought. I have forgotten how to find the running processes(please tell me how to do this). Then, once I find the virus in the processes, is it as simple as deleting it to...

    Program added without my knowledge?

    I just want to say your last post proves that not everyone gets on these boards simply to tell other people how stupid they are... thanks. With that out of the way, here is what I did: I attempted to do a virus scan on PitStop, and when checking the running processes it showed WERULE BUG...

    Program added without my knowledge?

    My reason for taking a snapshot was I thought I better be able to go back to a previous condition in case someone was able to plant something. I was expecting to see an option to proceed with installation, which I could cancel, but it never came. FYI I did immediately run adaware, and I never...

    Program added without my knowledge?

    This afternoon I was looking a site when I was totally bombarded with pop-ups. I closed them all down and was suddenly asked if I wanted to take a snapshot of my system before proceeding with adding an (unnamed) program. I went ahead and took a snapshot of my system(I use Windows XP), and...

    Floppy formatting question...

    I was able to recover the data by going to jufsoft.com, and paying $39.50 for a recovery program called BADCOPY, which worked, no problem. I have learned my lesson. No more floppies, I guess I'll start saving stuff on CD's. Thanks again. Alan

    Floppy formatting question...

    I forgot to mention... this probably happened because I pulled the disk in the middle of transferring the data to a program. Does this help explain anything? After rebooting, it still tells me the disk needs formatting. Will formatting at this point DEFINITELY erase the disk? Thanks. Alan

    Floppy formatting question...

    I've been backing up some stuff lately on a floppy until I figure out a better way of doing it, and I just went to open something from this floppy and it says the disk has not been formatted. I had just opened it a few minutes before, with no problems... is a problem like this what people mean...

    cpu won't shut down

    CPU's are mysterious... I went in to start up, removed a bunch of stuff, and it seemed to make no difference. It still wouldn't shut down. I kept fooling with it, and finally it shut down normally, and will now restart normally, also. But I went into the start up, and all the things I had...

    cpu won't shut down

    My Pentium 4, Windows XP Home machine won't shut down. I've had this problem before, and ran Spybot, and it removed whatever it was that was running in the background that would keep it from shutting down. This time, running Spybot, AdAware, and doing a complete virus scan using PitStop makes...

    How many traders have hands that hurt?

    My hands and wrists sometimes hurt, and what I do is massage the muscles in my forearms. This makes a huge difference. It also works for the tendonitus I occasionally get in one hand. You can tell which muscles need massaging by how tender they are. Tight muscles restrict blood flow, put...

    emini scalper's question

    Thanks. That did the trick. Also, for anyone who sometimes needs to open a file from Microsoft Excel and doesn't have the program, OpenOffice is compatible. It's a free version of Sun's StarOffice, and can be downloaded at www.openoffice.org. Alan

    emini scalper's question

    Jack, thanks for the thoughtful reply. Curious what you mean by scalping being a fringe activity. Also, I wasn't able to open the attachment either. Any suggestions on how to open it, from the posts that follow it appears I must have Microsoft Excel. Thanks again, and to others who responded...

    emini scalper's question

    Those of you who are principally scalpers of e's, how many points do you typically shoot for, and how long do you hold an average trade?

    I ran across this site today... counterpunch.org. Lot's of different perspectives on the war, and some other stuff as well. Alan

    reading the tape

    IF my memory serves me correctly, Markets and Market Logic is a very good book about volume, supply and demand relationships, etc. It's out of print, but I do think it's worth trying to find(I found my copy via inter-library loan). It's by J. Peter Steidlmayer and Kevin Koy.
