Internet - August 2007

It seems commonplace today to use the noun 'Google' as a verb, which is incorrect and ungrammatical:

INCORRECT
'to Google something'

CORRECT
'to search for something on Google'

Hi, I'm wanting to get LOTS of music off the net, for a small fee. The site has to have good access 24 hours a day, and millions of tunes. I don't really want to pay for each track as I'll probably be getting 1000s, just pay a monthly fee. I want unlimited downloads, and be able to store the music on my compter, an external hard drive, an mp3 player and dvds.

What's the best site to do this on?

Do you think celebrities like Justin Timberlake or other people really use there Myspace page? Because i always wander if its there music company who really puts there music videos on the site and add fans or whatever to there page. Do they really read all the fan comments?

My Internet Explorer just stopped working on my desktop computer. It always says page can not be displayed. I know it is not the internet plug, because i plugged it into my laptop and the internet worked and I know the comptuer has connection because it still lets me use limewire and you need a connection for that. Can anyone help me?

I accidentally pressed some keys on my keyboard and it messed up my IE by making it so I can't see the part on the top or the panel on the bottom of my Microsoft computer.If someone knows the key command to undo this please post it ASAP.

I read that the FBI is spying on Myspace users by putting a spyware program in their computers. I'm not up to anything, but the security breach the program represents is cause for concern, as it might be expolited by some hacker out there. has anyone had any problems with their passwords, account information, or other data being stolen?

Where we live there is no cable or hi speed internet - heck, not even a tele line. I am looking to move my shoppe to our home but need hi speed internet to work.

Is satellite a good option? Last year I looked into it and it seemed pricey with no guarantee of service - plus a friend said it was as slow as dial up.

Has it changed for the better? Can you recommend any company for this or a better solution??

Thank you!!!

I recently purchased a Vongage router from someone on Ebay.

Before the sale, the seller assured me that their account was paid-in-full and the device had been removed from the account. I have EBay messages documenting this.

Well, the device hasn't been cancelled. In fact, it still works - using the previous owner's phone number! Needless to say, Vonage won't switch a live, uncancelled device to my account (nor should they).

I sent a message two days ago to try to resolve the issue and have not received a response.

It appears EBay has three different ways I can try to resolve this, and I wondered which one(s) are the best to use in my circumstances:
1) SquareTrade dispute resolution/mediation.
2) Item not received as described report.
3) Send negative feedback.

So far, I haven't done any of these - I've just tried to contact the seller. However, I have a hunch the seller is going to dodge my calls, so I was wondering what a good next step would be.

Ok so I have just got into making homemade videos and set up a myspace page with them but cannot stand the fact that they look impressive in my chosen editing program premiere pro but when u compress them so it is possible to steam for most connection speeds they suddenly degrade in quality

for the life of me I would like to do them to the similar quality you get when your viewing for example a movie trailer I know that movie can afford high end equipment where has my budget does not even stretch to a pack of chewing gum

This is really pissing me off because i have things that i need to send and it won't let me. Every damn time i send one it comes back a few minutes later with this message:

Reporting-MTA: dns;bay0-omc3-s13.bay0.hotmail.com

How do i fix it so that i can actually send e-mail? I receive e-mail from people and i can open it but i can't reply or send. And it's not only that address if i try to send one to anyone it won't let me. I have hotmail, yahoo, verizon and AIM and all of them do the same thing. What's going on?

I have 2 PCs both with IE7 and Firefox. One PC shows all sites with either browser. The other shows all sites with IE, but with Firefox, some sites come up with a blank screen. (Notably eBay and Google). It's only started doing this recently. Firefox Options are the same on both machines. Deleting Firefox and reinstalling doesn't solve the problem. Ideas please.

So, in Firefox, as i'm sure you all know, there is a feature which you can turn on which allows you to close your browser with all your tabs open, and then when you re-open the browser, all your tabs will be reloaded. Does anybody know how I can do this in Internet Explorer, by a built in method or otherwise?
