Hello, I run a small website with a newsletter that has a whooping 20 people signed up. Is there FREE software to manage this? If not, I might as well put in the extra effort to manage it myself. Thanks

Lookin to buy either the ASUS G1, or G2...or possibly an alienware. Before everyone goes "oooo alienware...leetsauce best gaming laptop ever" ....please go look at specs. Im spending no more then 2,000 , and the asus G1 is about equally equipped, if not more equipped then the 2,000 dollar alienware (only the alienware has a 7900, compared to a 7700....but only has 1 gig of ram....)

So basically, any thoughts? Any others i should look at?

I especially want to buy my groceries online and things like supplies for my printer and computer accessories. I have no credit or credit cards, and they will not give me one, as I am retired and on low income. I have no debts and have lived in my council flat over twenty years. Any suggestions or ways around this problem? Thanks.

For a long time I've rec'd phishing scam e-mails claiming to be from ebay - nothing new there. They say "click here" on a link and use lots of methods to hide the real URL desitnation. For some months I've noticed that the phishers are using real URLs at legit companies that redirect to the phishers' sites. I figured this hole would be closed quickly, but not so far. One hole is at ebayobjects.com, which actually is registered to Doubleclick. Example (mucked/cleaned up): h_ttp://us.ebayobjects.com/6k;h=h_ttp://**PHISHER_IP_ADDRESS**/eBayISAPI.dll-SignIn/index.php
Doubleclick must know about this but must be unwilling to fix it. Does anyone know the legit reason DClick allows/needs this redirect functionality to be available to its customers? In any event, I do wonder how they get away with this w/o having a major PR problem?

I have a great website going, and I need help finding some plugins (that may not be the right word for what I'm looking for). I have the ability to enter a bunch of lines of code, and have the site react accordingly, now all I need is the code. I'm looking for the thing that says 'you are the (blankth) visitor to this site. does anyone have the code for that, or a place where I could get it? another thing is that I want the mouse to change from the regular thing when someone goes to my site, is there a way to do that? PLEASE HELP ME!!!

I have a compaq s5000nx running as a media box, its sporting a 2.5 celeron processor that desperately needs upgrading. According to everything that I can find, the motherboard has a bus speed of 400Mhz, the processor that I am looking at is a 3.0 P4 Prescott, in the 478 socket. Will this processor support the bus speed at 50% of what its used to?
And as a follow up, what kind of performance difference is there between a 400 and 800mhz system bus and is it worth upgrading motherboards?

Have you ever had to install a device driver when connecting a new peripheral device to a computer? If you did, what was the device? Was the driver supplied by the operating system or by the device’s manufacturer? Thanks for your help.
