Computers & Internet - 1 November 2007

One example. A girl on Yahoo Answers told me that she was going to Yale Medical School. She responded instantly to my messages on Messenger. I didn't believe her so I asked her a simple question: which state is Yale located?

She didn't answer in time. I think she had to google it. I also asked obvious questions that a med student should know and she got really defensive.

What other techniques do you use to determine if the person online is genuine?

I just downloaded Windows Live Messenger and a window saying "High Risk" from Norton Antivirus is coming up every ten seconds or so. It says "your computer is attempting to send private informaion over the internet"
How can I prevent this happen without deleting or turning off Norton Antivirus??

All computers in my office are part of a wired network and share a printer. These are handled by the Routefinder Soho VPN Gateway that goes to the Netgear Wireless Router and then internet.

I have purchased a laptop that I have connected to the wireless internet no problem but want to access the printer and/or computers on the network.

Is this possible, and if so, how???

I'm a bit of a novice so "laymens terms" appreciated!!!

I sent an email with an important document attached. The receiver said they never got it. However, I didn't get an email back saying the email was undeliverable. It was sent via hotmail to a person with an university email. Is there any way to recover it to prove it was sent at a certain time?

The keyboard, mouse, and Monitor that are hooked up to my computer dont turn on but they are 100% working. All connections are made correct and the lights and fans are spinning. The hard drive turns on, the RAM works, and the Cd Drive opens.

Simply put ... ANything i plug into the back wont work or turn on. My mother board is this : http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as...

Not sure If there could be a hidden jumper setting or if its a bad motherboard completely or whats wrong with it. But I cant see anything on screen and the periphs wont work. yes i connected everything ... And yes this starts up, the hard drive is running and the cd drive will open and run ... just no screen and no key/mouse ... dunno why

Heres some completely USELESS comments:
Check Connections
Flash Motherboard
Have you installed the OS? ( no moron, cant see the screen ...)
Do your mouse,keyboard,monitor work? ( READ!!!)

Please do not attempt to answer this question unless you've read my problem.
