Does anybody know anything about Zango.com because I downloaded it and it tried to blackmail me into buying a disk cleanup program, not only could I not get rid of it but it kept putting popups saying that I have embarrasing porn on my c drive (true) and no matter what I done it would not erase, I got rid eventually by deleting all internet files and using system restore. these people are just another cancer cell. Be warned.

What I mean is, if, in 200 years, they could bring you back alive, and, with your own stem cells frozen along with you, grow back a fresh, new body, woulf you be willing to have your cut-off head frozen in a cryogenic liquid nitrogen "box", for 200 years?

Wouldn't it be weird to wake up and see people staring at you that are young enough to be your great-great-great-great-great gandchildren, staring back at you with awe, and you wake up to see a new, young body?
What about if the people looking at you weren't even human anymore, but cyborg-humanoid hybrids, and you were the first
entirely wetware human they have ever interacted with, and their intelligence was 200 times our present size?

What if they decided to keep in locked up in a lab experiment,
and it turned into a hell of getting poked and probed for hundreds
of years? Or if they kept you consciously alive and imprisoned
for thousands of years as a genetic "wetware" back-up, for their cyborg computers?

Thanks.

I recently bought a IBM laptop from eBay and it comes with a 802.11g Wireless LAN PC card. When I switch the laptop on, it suddenly connect me to the internet and I was browsing. BUT....I am not a subscriber of any internet service DSL or dial-up....AND I was not around or close to any internet wireless router when I use the laptop...I was in the middle of a parking lot. How was I able to access the net? It happened everytime I switch on the laptop even when I am in my office where there is no wireless service. Can someone enlighten me on this???

A few weeks ago I asked a question concerning my drive, as it couldn't recognoze blank discs...
http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AiOVW42P74I1NTl0._YFM4Lsy6IX?qid=20060922131042AAgtZsf
One suggested I try getting a cleaning disc and trying that to clean the lasers. Well, I did that and it DID work. I could burn normally, but the very next day I went to burn some more discs and the same message came up.

Naturally I put the disc in again, but nothing changed, and I did once more, and still nothing. Keep in mind all this was a few weeks ago, and I just finally gave up, annoyed. Well, I decided again today I'd try and put the cdisc in and then try burning but again, same message.

This is really getting annoying and I'd like to figure out why it's doing this. I can't reinstall the drive program, as my comp came with everything installed, so don't bother recommending that. It's not an old model either, as I got it about three years old and I've rarely burned anything.

I have heard that you can have graphics on a computer without an actual graphics card. Is this possible? If so, how is it achieved? I have heard that when you buy them from some small locally owned businesses, they use a process called Ghosting and they do not actually put video or sound cards in the computer, but you still have the capabilities. How does this work?
