I've tried ending several processes but not much difference. Could it be due to the McAfee antivirus which i've just installed?
Or is it a virus/infection? pls help...
btw.. my laptop is running on Pentium M - processor 1.6 Ghz with 1 GB RAM.

thx in advance, guys

I am using Ubuntu 7.04 - 2.6.20 kernel.I need to activate my wireless USB disk by updating the kernel to 2.6.22.4.The present kernel is not able to provide me the proper driver for that USB disk.I knew this becos the same disk works in Fedora7.

I installed NDISWRAPPER but its unable to see my wireless disk.I tried wifirader too but no success in Ubuntu.
My question is.. how to upgrade my kernel in ubuntu without internet connection?I can download the kernel thro Fedora and put it in shared drive to use back in Ubuntu.If can,what are the things to download and how to go about?
Pl explain in simple language as I am not an IT man.
Thanks in advance.

first and foremost, I wanted thank evryone who replied, I got a message that someone replied with a question, but I couldn't find it. Anyhow, I think it's spyware, I am starting to hear clicks that were not initiated by me and the mail page wouldn't load.
But than again it could be from deleting cookies and temp files.
Also I tried to go to processes and eliminating as much stuff as I can get away with, I ended up accidently turning off the computer. With a little bit of practice I got my page file (mostly keeping the system files) to 270 MB from 350. But I have to keep my comp. on stnd by or redo the prcess every boot. If someone can refer me to file extension dictionary I would gratly apreciate it.

Besides PHP being free and open source, is it better then asp.Net or Coldfusion?

Really I want to know .Net? I just started learning PHP and I completed a few learning DVDs about PHP with Lynda.com (One was PHP and MySQL DVD, that just released) and I still am very confused by PHP and how to make it work and etc etc.

Is "asp.Net" better and easier and more affective.

the same question for coldfusion.

I dont really care if php is free and open source. I just want the best and also maybe the .Net is easier to understand ... I'm so lost with PHP and I have been learning it all week.

Any thoughts and comments ... I'm all ears.
