    Not able to connect to web through Procurve Switch

    I tried to find the answer on a thread, but couldn't..... I just got an HP Procurve 1700-24 (setting up a LAN area downstairs). I had the network running from a linksys BEFCMU10 modem to a netgear WGR614v2 router. Worked fine. I unplugged the router and plugged the modem into the dual...

    buying software on ebay/tigerdirect....

    Yeah, I only buy new, still factory-sealed from sellers with good ratings and return windows. It just amazed me that Microsoft doesn't seem to pursue these people. Not that I care, they supply me with cheap software! Thanks!

    buying software on ebay/tigerdirect....

    So, this is more of a "just wondering" kind of thing, but how do people on Ebay and such sites sell microsoft software for so cheap?

    P5QC LAN w/ WINXP SP2

    Alright, so this has been pissing me off for long enough now. I have the ASUS P5QC (onboard LAN is Atheros AR8121/AR8113). LAN works fine after driver install, and throughout windows update, unless I update to SP2. If I update to SP2, LAN lights go out. The device is no longer listed as...

    Incoming request security program

    Hey all, I tried searching for this, but couldn't find anything specific. I'm looking for a program that works much like virus/malware software, but instead of being so generic, it is only geared towards incoming requests from the global extranet. When switched on, the program would halt any...
