Hehe, that extension is awesome :D

Good to hear from you mate.

Oh and I'm really into Landrovers, although I don't know if that'd be enough to swing tens of thousands of dollars one way or the other.

Definite affection and loyalty to google, although I'm watching my back that they don't turn evil when they get bigger. They provide great services, for free, and have excellent policies. They also make sleek web pages and have a sense of humour. Tip.it for all my Runescape needs of course :D That's probably mainly because I found tip.it first, but latterly because of the people I've met on the forums. Mozilla. Open source. Phpbb. Open source. Dunno, that's the ones I could think of on the spot.

Without a doubt Firefox is better ;) Supports web standards, more secure, skinnable, many great extensions, tabbed browsing, faster, simpler, yet more customisable, open source, the list goes on. Oh and Biox, good work with your sister ;) And yeah that sucks. Email them and/or report the sites to tech-evangalism.

Yes it is. :P www.apple.com www.appletalk.com.au Just released. Well well well. (Three holes in the ground.) Shall have to investigate.

My brother was telling me it was blocking hijackthis in regular mode, but the hijackthis log didn't seem to show anything evil in safe mode. Might ring him again tonight.

What sort of newb do you take me for merc? :P Clarification: I am on holidays, I was assisting my brother in fixing the pc. We were, however, unsuccesful. I guess it'll have to wait until I get home. As for the comment about reinstalling windows, that was mostly just to increase the fear factor :P

back from holidays. Info is down a few posts. http://forum.tip.it/viewtopic.php?p=2251938#2251938 ----Old---- Last night I was on the phone for several hours trying to get our home pc fixed up as it seemed my brother had installed some viruses on it. Aftter quizzing him it seemed he'd clicked on a link in msn from someone asking if a link containing his email was him. Well guess what, tonight I get a message from someone with just such a link. Surprise surprise. Searched around the net, seems it's a fairly new thing, could only find references to it in the last few days. Once your computer has been infected, your msn then automatically sends the links to everyone else on your contacts list. I don't have any other details, but my brother said that on our pc at home he can't run any antivirus software and the internet doesn't work. I found a reference on a forum to one person having to reinstall windows to get rid of it. We had the latest Norton Internet Security which auto-updates, but it's no substitute for common sense. Visiting the link in Firefox I simply get asked to download an exe file, but it's possible that if you're using an old version of windows/IE then just clicking the link itself might be enough to check your pc in to the emergency ward. So yeah, if someone says this to you: Infected_User says: Heh, is this really you? www-messengertools.org/msn.php?session=y8670&[email protected] DO NOT CLICK TEH LINK!

Well seeing as you've told your parents about it then everything should sort itself out, talking to an adult is usally the best thing to do. Just a note for you and for anyone else who's reading this who thinks they might be depressed. Depression doesn't last forever, things will improve for you, but you need to talk to someone. Your parents or another responsibile adult should be first on the list, but if you're uncomfortable with that then there are free counselling services avaliable in most countries. In Australia, try the Kids Help Line (1800 55 1800), or Lifeline (13 11 14). Not sure about other countries but there's bound to be some. Try your phone book or look up online. Oh and at most of them you can remain ananymous. Oh and PS. About what Merc said before, I'm not so sure about that. I think it may vary from country to country but I think because you're a minor then the doctor has a responsibility to tell your parents

Itunes music store isn't avaliable in Australia :(

Looking forward to that Jeppe :) Currently I have mozillaZine, Planet Mozilla, and ABC (Australian Broadcasting Association) news. Only using standard Firefox livebookmarks atm which isn't a real rss reader.

If I just look at the tip.it website without delving deep into this thread, it gives the opposite impression. IMHO tip.it needs to take responsibility for anything posted on the tip.it website. While the forums give a specific disclaimer when registering; The /runescape website gives nothing of the sort (that I can find at least.) I can understand that tip.it is not the author when it specifically says it's by Duke Freedom or some other person, but "The Editor" sounds very much as though it's someone who's a staff member and therefore as a staff member their comments reflect on the staff. Just my $0.02

Rapid share website faq?

Dude do you know how long that's been there for? Years and years and years dude. It certainly aint high on their priorities list.

Hehe, you're joking, right? There's not even a release candidate at this point, I wouldn't be surprised if it takes them till December to actually launch the release. "December" is only 10 days after a month from now :P RC1 is going to be October 28 with a 5 day lockdown (longer than last time) and the 1.0 RC1 to 1.0 release gap was only 13 days... my money is on less than a month.

Get msn plus, (be careful when you install it and do NOT install the optional sponsor program) and then you get cool IRC style shortcuts. /brb to set status to brb, /away /lunch /onphone /online /busy. /block to block someone, /profile to see their msn profile. There are loads I just can't remember them all. ...Plus about a squillion other extra features.

Just a quick note to everyone: yes it contains a whole lot of awesome features and fixes, but please note that the software is currently in beta and should not be used for any mission-critical taks. THe official relesae will be out in less than a month I'm pretty sure.

Hehe that was a great read :D It did concentrate rather a lot on the negative users and there was no mention of the 99% (i'd guess) of users who aren't any trouble at all, but I guess it's the staffs' jobs to concentrate on that minority. I didn't get the god-peasant impression though. Oh and yeah, it kinda looked like the crew were just thrown in as an afterthought, but then again they are kinda like a seperate thing...

Whoops. I like opened the reply page and then posted it like an hour later :D

Ie -> Tools -> Internet options -> Content -> Content Advisor -> Enable. Has supervisor password option in there. My only problem with this is, why hasn't anyone else suggested it? :|

I'll take that wager. 3 cabbages and bucket says it's Firefox :P I really should get around to spending some time trying out opera, now that it's free I'm far happier. Obviously it's still not free though.

Alternitively you could try running two of the program on the same pc.

runevillage is the other popular one.

haha :lol:
