    USB pen drive password protect software?

    You could use a Cryptainer volume. The software lets you create a portable container on the flash drive, up to 25mb, 128bit Blowfish (free version). It has an executable on the drive, just run it, then you'll be prompted for the password, then a new drive is mounted and you can use them as you...

    You can help make longhorn better!

    Wasn't the floppy disk supposed to die 5 years ago? This antiquated "broke-#*@" technology is still around? USB sticks and cd roms are the norm. For the price of a floppy drive, you can buy a much higher capacity USB stick, i.e. 1.44MB floppy for $20, vs. 64MB+ USB stick for the same...

    Throttling F@H on a Laptop

    It's been awhile since I have DC'd since I have had to move around a bit. I now only have a notebook as my main computer (no room for a tower anywhere), and I am concerned about battery usage. When I ran folding awhile back, it would kill my batter pretty quickly. If I could have...

    Recovering Data from External Hard Drive

    I have actually tried PC File Inspector with no results. The only application that I have any results so far is File Scavenger. At least with File Scavenger, I could see some of my files, but PC File Inspector did nothing.

    Recovering Data from External Hard Drive

    I was reformatting my notebook in December and used a WD 40GB hard drive in an external enclosure to backup some important info....which seems to have been a mistake... The drive worked fine before and after the installation of XP, and it wasn't until I tried installing SP2 from the external...

    Certification

    QFT. When I took my A+ tests back in 1999, they asked like 7 or 8 questions regarding stupid daisywheel and dot matrix printers....of course, this test hardly mentioned the existance of windows 98....primarily windows 3.1 or 95.... Laser printers, inkjet printers, and bubblejets, etc maybe...

    File Synchronizer

    I am looking for a good freeware file synchronizer. Briefcase is a bit of a pain sometimes because I want to synchronize all of My Documents, not just a couple of files from one directory. I found one on sourcefourge called Directory Synchronize, but I have to play with it to see how good it...

    IE downloading problem

    Okay don't flame me for using IE, I use Firefox as well, but somethings Firefox doesn't work with. Since I have ugraded to XP SP2, if I click on a downloadable link, it will automatically download and open the file, without even prompting me. Unless I right click>save as, I can't get a...

    How many times a week do you receive a Blue Screen Of Death?

    I usually have a BSOD a day on my laptop. I know specifically that it is because of my Orinoco Wireless card, but regardless of using the current or previous drivers, I still have problems. Proxim support sucks @$$, so nothing I can do but save often. Also, using Azureus sometimes...but...

    Proxim Orinoco Drivers....

    Hey guys, I am running the latest Orinonco drivers on my Orinoco Silver b/g wireless card, version 3.1.2.19. Randomly I will get BSOD's referring to ntpr11ag.sys (orinoco driver) and NDIS.sys....it gets very annoying. Everything else about this driver release is good, except for the BSOD's...

    WHOIS and IP question

    Okay, so I am trying to check on the location of a friend of mine via his IP address. I know which country he is usually in, but sometimes he will travel within the Pacific Rim nations on business. Whenever he emails me, I will run a WHOIS on the IP and it will obviously tell me who owns the...

    Which anti virus suite is the least taxing on a PC?

    I have had great results using Avast Antivirus. It's free, has a better interface than AVG and AntiVir....the resident scanner has the ability to monitor P2P activity, IM, Memory, EMAIL, etc.... The free license is good for 14 months. I had tried the campus license for Viruscan 7.1 and its...

    Large flash based hard drives?

    Static Ram is nice, but it is very expensive and consumes lots more power than DRAM. DRAM is cheap because it only uses one transistor per cell (right?) and SRAM uses 6. One reason SRAM is primarily used in cache...

    Opinions on new site

    Thanks guys for your comments. I used frontpage, and tables were easier for me to organize the page, don't know CSS either. I know that the source is all jumbled up, but that's because I ran the html file through an HTML Optimizer to save some load times. It ended up cutting each of the...

    Okay, so I am about 95% done with a client's website. I am only waiting for him to provide one more piece of content to be posted to his business's website. I need a couple of people to at least view his website and see if it is "alright." There shouldn't be any blatant errors in the code...

    Anyone had problems with the Netgear WG511 non-turbo PC card? I purchased it today, upgraded the drivers from 1.6 to 2.7 (via the instructions, ie. remove old drivers). After doing that, if I tried opening up internet explorer, i would get the notorious BSOD regarding WG511ICB.sys....so its...

    From DSL to Dialup :(

    Oh well, I just got kicked out of my parents house, and in my apartment I won't have the extra $40/month for DSL. I have a free dialup client courtesy of my work, but I was wondering if there was any software similar to what NetZero uses to increase the page load speeds, etc over a 56k...

    I am helping a friend's Aunt and Uncle keep costs down on their new business network. I have a 24port switch and a Network attached storage device with a firewall on it too, but I need to have some sort of antivirus for the workstations. Is it possible to have one computer with a paid version...

    Best Well Priced and Functional Camera

    I have done plenty of business with Newegg in the past, I know the quality of their service. It's kind of a delayed gratification thing....waiting may cost $40, but I can get it ASAP locally and if something goes wrong, I can just exchange it fairely easily. Reading some reviews, the A70...

    Best Well Priced and Functional Camera

    I am looking for a reliable, functional, and well priced camera for under $300. I would just need the camera for basic point and shoot, maybe for some nice scenery and poorly lit areas, probably something above 3MP. I guess I am looking for the best all around product. I know I will need...
