My friend lives on a boat in a marina. Along with the others, he gets cable TV. There is one cable company for the whole town, and they also have cable internet. The surrounding buildings not 60 feet away have cable TV & Internet, yet they tell him that he cannot get internet in the marina. This does not make any sense to me. Theoretically, if he can get cable tv, they should be able to throw internet to him through the same cable, with a modem of course, just like up on the land. I'm not a cable guy, but does anyone actually know why they say he can't get internet on his boat?

I think i saw it on the news. Some guy started with a paperclip and worked his way up to a boat. I don't have that kind of ambition but what was the site called?

It looks a lot 'different' than many of the adware/spyware/internet security programs I have seen, including the free ones. When you do an 'update'...it wants you to pick from various weird servers that are all over the world, as to where your download updates are going to come from. What's up with that? Most of those sites, I have never heard of...some don't even look like legit sites. Does anybody else use SS&D and see this stuff? I got it from CNet's download.com. Just wondering why this interface is so weird, and why it downloads all of this crap with a bunch of odd extensions that aren't like other virus/spyware/adware extensions most programs have. Why does this one look so...what's the word..."hacker-like" with a bunch of crap everywhere on it? When it's searching...at the bottom it states that it's running a 'bot check'; and scrolls through all of these hundreds of crazy extensions it downloaded from who knows where. Just wanted to know how 'normal' this actually is?

I called my cable company because I could not get the internet on my computer.They said because it's running so slow, it probably needs to be cleaned out.
How do I clean it out, and get it to a faster pace?
Do I have to delete anything?
I'm not a genius at computers so try and keep it simple lol

Click Start, and then click Run.

In the Open box, type the following command, and then click OK.

My CPU usage shows 100% even without any applications opened. It takes several minutes to exit out of a screen saver.
Under processes theres a process "agent.exe" that shows constant usage of CPU between 38 & 60 percent and "ISUSPM.exe" shows 30 to high 40s.
I've run spybot, virus scan & have defragged which is about the extent of my IT abilities.
Any ideas?

Bought an intel motherboard D910GLDW, this the 6 th computer i've built, i put the MOBO in, and went ta boot it up, and got the black screen, i went over the instructions very carefully, to make sure I put it in the right way, i took the battery out, and i tried switching the jumper, but neither one worked. The board has an intel graphics media accelerator 900, and i'm thinking, it has to do with the video htich up, because right off the bat, i didn't get anything, any help would be a ppreciated. Oh I have 2 computers, this one works, I just up graded it, from a Shuttle to a Biostar MOBO, had know problems, the other one, everything is new, starting from scratch, you would think it would be easier.

I'm getting a new computer.

Hopefully I could profit a little from my old one, the new one is expensive.

Not likely since it has a busted dirty keyboard, and I opened it up a few times. Some of those little clicking thingys that hold the flat wire thingy to the board, I broke them. They still hold though cause I wedged them in.
