I am looking to buy a printer that will not give me issues when I refill the ink cartridges. Canon ip1800 is what I'm using but it's telling me the cartridge is empty. I've used several HP Photosmart printers, but they are very slow to print, in comparison. Lexmark is an option, but I don't want any that's a top feed because I've had 5 of those, that had feed problems.

I use Window Live OneCare, Spy Sweeper, Zone Alarms, and Spybot S & D but I still get viruses. From the viruses I usually get, none of the program alert me (except OneCare sometimes). I always get viruses that crash my computer after startup, but they are easily cleared with a system restore.

Well, every time i go on i tunes i click on a song. but if i click it once, i have to click the play button after, and it works. But if i click it twice, this box pops up and it needs a password. I have did my password, but that doesn't work then i change my password. I go back and make that box come up again and i enter the password, doesn't work. So now everytime i click on a song name twice a little box comes up. But i can not get rid of that box. I click on "before he cheats" twice then that box pops up i close it or enter the password, then i click on another song once, then that box pops up again.

Please help i really want to listen to my songs.

Give a good answer.

This has been going on for maybe 2 months now.So i have to be careful not to click on a song 2 times.

Also, if i close down itunes and try and clicka song once, the box pops up. I just want to get rid of that box.

Okay, I just got a really annoying virus wanting to sell me DioCleaner. They hacked into my computer, stopped my internet from working, and disabled my task manager. My run feature is also a little out of order.

Since my internet does not work, I can not download an extra. Which folders (step by step) do I need to get to, to enable the task manager?

The modem is a CDMA fixed wireless terminal and the packaging is written in Chinese which I cant read - meaning to say I cant establish who the manufacturer is. There is no drivers for the modem but only for the special USB-to-serial cable provided by the manufacturer.The device manager of Windows XP shows that both the modem & the cable are all working correctly but somehow I just cant connect to the Internet. I use a dial-up connection of which the modem is not dialing out.Please help with step - by - step configuration procedures if you can.

Bought a new Compaq Presario C700 laptop with Vista Home Premium, whenever I try to access my wireless network (using a Belkin N Wirless Router - Cable) to set up an internet connection over the Wi-Fi a box appears and asks me to 'Enter Credentials' which are: 'User name', 'Password' and 'Logon Domain', I don't have any of these, no-where in Belkin's instructions does it have any of these, the closest I have is a WEP key but that doesn't work. Any help will be gratefully received
