I bid on ebay items a lot. I want to find a better way to win the items. I know you can auto bid with a 3rd party to out bid anyone doing the bid manually while refreshing their screen. I want to beat this people so they don't see me coming.

Hi,

Ive been reading the net alot. and some sites mention (while some sites say it is not true) that DDR 400 is backwards compatible with DDR333 (my brother wants to upgrade his ram, and he has a DDR333 chip in his computer already).

Anyways, id like to know if it is backward compatible, because where I live, DDR400 is cheaper than DDR333.. so id rather get the cheaper option.

Also, will there be better or worse performance compared to running two DDR333 chips?

Lastly, Is it ok to run CL 2.5 Ram with CL 3 Ram?


Thank you so much!

Hi, they told me I need my computer to have the hard drive formated. what is "non dos" partition?

what is a boot disk and fdisk utility? Do I need a special disk to do that or it is any disk?//////


how do you run windows by running i386\winnt.exe

Do I need a professional to do that or can I do it myself not knowing much of that?

thanks.
Why do some people do not consider Norton antivirus as a best choice?

How good is spy ware and spy boot and why does spy boot when I run it to scan it is scanning some websites I have never accesses like casino and other ugly stuff that I have never at all even viewed?

I had to scan my computer several times time after time and it always showed SPD Exploit and then there was an update in my machine and now is no longer showing; does that mean I am no longer at danger or what happened?

thanks a lot.

I use Belkin 802.11g Wireless router in my home network. Although the parental control is been set on, I would still be happy to check on their usage once a while to make sure they are not downloading illegal stuffs.

What kind of router monitoring program available there for free that I can monitor the usage of each IP address and what kind of address or bandwidth used?

Please help, high points for the most acceptable answer. Thank you

I have tried everything. Currently i have my site. http://www.books4sale.co.nr and also still working on http://books4sale.atspace.com and im even working on another one.

Basically i want to sell used books. I am now thinking about replacing my site with a forum. This way i can have every book as a topic and links, etc.

Is this a good idea? My main reason for this is because i only know html. Not php. I need quite a bit of pages, and also a contact form or a place for contact.

Would a forum be a good idea?
What other ideas do you have?

when you want to search something in YAHOO, you type words related to the topic you are trying to find out..... after you get all the options... you get the different web links you can visit... there is small ICON that allows you to open a new WINDOW that you will close whenever you finish, without loosing your last search... I do not get that icon... how can I restore it or reactivate it?????
