...that lets me watch DVD's on the computer, all regions?
I'm looking for a program so I can watch region 1 DVD's as well. The one I have only lets me watch region 2.

Preferably one that lets me take screen captures too.
Thanks!

...and I do not mean the meat product.

Originally, Spam was used to denote Unsolicited Email, but especially Commercial Email.

Now the term seems to include any posting that use to be called Flooding, the process of posting multiple lines of the same text two or more times in a chatroom. I have even seen it used in reference to a message that is posted two or more times in a forum (or even on Yahoo! Answers).

I didn't get the memo. When did this change?

this is what I have so far:

include "config.php";
if (@$_POST['search']=="search")
{
$keyword=$_POST['keyword'];
$result=mysql_query("SELECT * FROM listed WHERE `itemname` LIKE '%$keyword%' OR `message1` LIKE '%$keyword%'");
while ($results = mysql_fetch_array($result))
{
$tag=$results['tag'];
$idno=$results['id'];
$title=$results['name'];
$description=$results['message1'];
$position=40;

$post = substr($description, 0, $position);

echo "$tag,$title,$post,$idno
?>

I also heard of adding a thing called noslashes or something which is supposed to prevent unwanted SQL queries. Any info on that?

I have a cd-rw drive on my pc and i've recently downloaded a couple of music dvd's. I want to be able to watch them on tv so i need to put them on a disc. Will my cd-rw drive do the job? If yes, will i need to use a dvd disc or will a cd-r disc do? And if it won't do it, why's that?
Whats the difference between dvd's and cd's anyway? Forgive my total computer ignorance, i bet there's loads of 16 yr old techno experts out there reading this and laughing their heads off!
By the way, am i right in thinking that you can only write data onto a cd-r once, but you can overwrite stuff on a cd-rw as often as you like? And why do some kinds of discs have a plus sign and a minus sign, eg dvd+/-rw? Someone enlighten me, Please!!!!

The colors are all stupid. the blues are too blue and all the same shade of blue. The reds and yellows are real bright and orange. It looks like an old picture tube TV gone bad. I tried the buttons on the front of the monitor but none of them change the color, only the shape and the brightness. Do I need a new monitor? My family is on the computer alot.
