    Help w/RAM

    Many such utilities. Start with the free CPU-Z from CPUID. Tiny process footprint, no need to install anything... see "Directions for use" on the above page. Make sure to look on the SPD tab as well as the Memory tab. In case that doesn't do it (see last Q on the FAQ), bring out the heavy...

    Thanks, everyone. GTS, NetLimiter 2 Pro seems like a perfect tool for the job. I'll try that.

    Help with "Paint"

    Have you verified that your copy of \Windows\system32\mspaint.exe file is indeed missing or corrupted -- as opposed to the shortcut itself having being deleted? Also, have you searched all your local drives for "mspaint.exe", incl. hidden and system files? For instance, on this PC that file...

    Limiting bandwidth per computer

    When several computers share a single broadband connection (some wirelessly), is there a way to set a user-defined upper limit (either in absolute Kbps/Mbps or relative %) on each one's bandwidth usage?

    Computer has mind of its own

    I've successfully used a free, make-your-own BartPE bootable CD to transfer files from a failed, no longer recognized internal HD to an external USB HD.

    Should Students Be Taught To Attack Shooters?

    There have been cases when quick-thinking, courageous civilians managed to subdue a deranged killer. The Colin Ferguson (the LIRR killer) case from 1993 comes to mind immediately. That Wiki page is surprisingly weak on details of that event, considering how extensively it's been covered in...

    Popular FX site hacked

    Well, that explains those "Authorization Failed" messages I got a few times while trying to access FF's calendar. Using Firefox on a separate machine, BTW. This is also a good illustration of why all MS Windows security updates need to be taken damn seriously and done promptly. The patch...

    optionetics dvds for swap

    Well... this is kind of difficult for me to admit... back in college, I was selling warm and stylish Italian boots to well-off Eskimo women, but somehow managed to fail miserably at that no-brainer of a job and swore off sales as a career for good. SarahG... you poor thing. Not only do you...

    Saxo Bank Has Screwed Me

    Lon, that's why I requested that the OP post the basic facts such as the entry and exit prices and times (h:m:s), as well as what the change was. However unfair / dishonest Saxo Bank's retail forex dealing practices may or may not be, hard to imagine Saxo being dumb / self-destructive enough...

    Saxo Bank Has Screwed Me

    Oh, that's just an ET fluke for all newly-registered members. The vBulletin post counter is always lagging for them, kind of like most TA indicators...

    Saxo Bank Has Screwed Me

    xelor, would you mind posting your entry and exit prices and times? Also, what was the "change" retroactively applied by Saxo Bank, as mentioned in their email? Thanks.

    Patches fixed? There are (and have been for a long time) at least 4 or 5 quick-n-easy ways to directly save Youtube clips (video or audio), any other Flash stuff and, in general, almost any multimedia content on the web, without quality degradation. No speakers, mic or skills needed.

    Forex Scams Are Out of Control

    Some of the reasons have already been mentioned above. - no regulation Gold and crude are accessible most easily (though not exclusively... you've also got spot and ETFs) via futures markets, which are highly regulated, particularly in the US. Cash forex is not. Yet. - higher leverage...

    China and India currency

    I don't feel that there's anyhing stupid about the OP's questions. I know highly intelligent people, top school MBA grads, who don't seem to understand the inevitable pairwise nature of currencies as an asset class. The answer 2 posts above this one is wrong, BTW. Those aren't the rates...
