Need to connect to a Wireless Network. Pop-up window tells me that the WLAN- Wireless Assistant is on. With limited computing knowledge, it means "Assistant" as a person assisting and NOT the. actual Network, am I correct in my thinking. So, I do have a Firewall , which probably needs to be disconnected while I connect to a wireless network. Please respond- oh wise computer Expert!

If I log into my Messenger, or try to access a web page, I will more often than not, get a message like "Windows- Application Error. The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000017). Click on OK to terminate the application." Also, I'm getting at least 1000 cookies every day, no matter how much I delete them, they always come back in floods.

and have to strain and concentrate and ask them to repeat stuff iover and over cause you can't understand a darn things they are saying.

I also find some of these computer tech support people from India are so rude and impatient (usually the women are ok though).

I am exhausted, spent four hours messing with a virus and still am not convinvced it's gone...could not understand most of what tthey said and had to talk to 6 people in trying to resolve it..and could only understand the accent in one person...kind of.

It makes me mad I feel all stressed out because they have to send our jobs overseas to save a buck when they are making millions and we, their costumers can't even get people whose English you understand.

Does this bother anyone else?

System is Windows XP Home edition.

Ok, I have a folder “A” that has pictures from my digital camera and I want to transfer the files into folder “B”. However, I want the name of the files to change when it they get transferred. In folder “B” the names are like: 1,2,3,4, ect, when the files get transferred, I want the file name to pick up the next number:

Example: folder “B” has 1.jpg, 2.jpg & 3.jpg, then the next file would change from picture1.jpg to 4.jpg and so on.

Is this possible? I’ve seen this done at work but I don’t know who to ask in the IT department.

I tried replacing the hard drive in my XP maching with the hard drive from my ME machine but the colors don't show right. Its limiting itself to 16 colors instead of 256. Why does it do that? Is there any way to correct this? Everything else seems to work just fine its just the colors don't work and when I switch the hard drives back to their original computers the colors go back to normal. Someone help me please I just don't get it.

I recently was involved with a seller to buy goods on ebay. Once the auction ended it was apparent that the seller was bidding against me with another account. After complaining to ebay the seller had her accounts suspended. Now she is active again, she has been pursuing me to get me to purchase these goods. Naturally I have refused to take them, but now she has complained to ebay about this and I have now been issued with a non playing alert. The cheek of it. The worst bit is that ebay are taking her side. If ebay were doing their job, they would be throwing these sellers off their site, but it is clear they are more interested in their cut of any sale, no matter how dodgy, than running a reputable operation. The wild west is alive and well in ebay land. All they need is John Wayne, Clint Eastwood and Lee Van Cleef and their outfit would be complete.
