I know there's lots written about graphics cards but it's hard to tell if they are passively cooled or not. Anything half decent these days makes a lot of noise and I'd rather have the quiet end of the spectrum - but then I don't want a naff card either.

(if you are highly experienced in frontpage)
I have microsoft frontpage 2003
I have constructed my web pages and established it on the internet
if I want to make some minor adjustments, do I have to publish my work again after I made them?
or will it automatically show on the site?

I don't really know alot about computers. I just got a new modem, and my computer seems alot slower than it was with the old one (both are 56k), especially when I'm on website with lots of pictures. It takes FOREVER for those pages to load. Are there any settings I need to look at or adjust? I really hope there's someone out there who can help!

My CD drive has failed and I am going to need to take my computer in to have it fixed. I have financial records and things of that nature that I don't want anyone to get there hands on. Is my data safe? Will Apple be going through the things on my hard drive? Should I back everything up and then do a secure erase on things?

I am a long time PC user and I am used to Dell who has you pull the hard drive before sending the computer off.

I bought myself a scanner some time ago and I'm still trying to get to grips with it.

I've scanned a picture from a magazine, which measures about 8"x4" and I'm trying to send it to a friend via my Yahoo email account.

I've followed the step by step instructions, and now I'm at the stage where it says 'Please wait while we attach the file(s) to your message'.

The word 'wait' is very difficult to live with. How long do I have to wait? How long is a piece of string? How do I know it hasn't malfunctioned?

I don't mind waiting, as long as I know for how long. Yahoo mail doesn't let you know this. It's been 1/2 an hour now, and the progress bar is still bobbing along.

I might go to the middle of nowhere, comcast is not available there like it is where I am now. People either use dial up or DSL I hate dial up and I hate phone lines and the phone company. Can you get broadband or something like that in the sticks on a wireless laptop?

Can you trace someone by an ip address, to a physical area? I thought this was supposed to be difficult, involving the ip issuing company?
Reason for asking, on surfing, i come accross, by a redirect, pop up (though they are not technically pop ups, just redirected pages) that are are for dating. Nothing wrong with that, but they give my geographical area, such as find a date in "?town" (where i actually am) and ive come across these a year ago, with a more wider area,( a similar, near, larger city).
How can they get my location, initially roughly, but now, very precisely?
Its not a big deal...its just interesting to know how they know a pc's location. I use a router, and mcaffee self test, failed as my ip was "hidden" by a router?
