Hi Suze, we are really shocked and sad to hear about Bartdutch. We shared a few beers at some socials a few years back and he was a lovely bloke. I can't imagine how you feel at the moment, our thoughts are with you

I really wish I could draw or paint but I don't have an artistic bone in my body. sad

Hi this is Carl. You don't see me on here very often I'm normally a reader not a poster smile. As anyone who knows me knows I very rarely go out and I was looking forward to tonight. After reading this thread however I have decided that we will not be attending.

I run the hoover over my keyboard every day. Only ever lost 1 key once and had a pretty dirty time finding it in the hoover bag. Once in 8 years isn't too bad though smile. It also gets wiped over with a damp cloth daily and every now and then I pop all the keys off and throw them in a bowl of bleach for a couple of hours. I take a photo of the keyboard first so I know where all the ';./, etc. keys go
Carl
My deepest sympathies to anyone who has lost either parent.
I received my first fathers day card ever in the post this morning. Just seeing the word "Dad" on the envelope gave me a smile that I haven't lost yet. smile :) :)

Don't come to Brighton, we're full. Feckin tourists taking over the beach, pushing up all the prices, causing traffic jams, leaving garbage on the beach, then there's the hen and stag nights who happen to go past my flat at 2-6 am seeming to believe that the quieter it is the louder you have to talk.

No problem and thanks for the attempt. I just looked at Microsofts help site (Now there's a contradiction in terms rolleyes) and it seems like removing the IDE cable is my only option whilst she is here. At least I know that if it's not connected she can't access it. cool
Carl

Thats what I was gonna suggest!
Either that, or pull a mains fuse, light some candles, and tell sproglet theres a power cut. :smug:
I like the way you're thinking lol but as it's her first visit in 11 years I'd better make it a good one. I can be mean later when I've lulled her into a false sense of security smile

I have a query, I have my young daughter coming to stay with me soon and she will want to use my computer whilst she is staying. I have set up a new account on the computer which blocks access to my favourites and stops her from amending settings etc. however I have an extra drive with folders on it that I don't want her to have access to. I have tried to make the folders private however the box I need to tick is greyed out so I can't tick it. I could make my folders "Hidden" but that is hardly foolproof and I want to be able to leave her to use the computer without invading her privacy by constantly looking over her shoulder. Is there anyway I can do this? Also is creating a new User Account going to be enough to stop an inquisitive child? What are the risks and how can I deal with them?
I normally deal with this kind of thing myself but I could really use a bit of advice in this area

In windows explorer go to Tools -> Folder Options -> View. Then in the list of tickable items right down at the bottom is "Use simple file sharing". Make sure it's unticked.
Then go back to the main windows explorer window and right click on the drive you want to make secure. Choose "Sharing and security..." from the sub menu.
Once at the security dialogue select the ""Security" tab. Highlight the new user account that should be in the list, then tick or untick the appropriate boxes in the bottom window.
If the new account isn't there then just click on the "Add" button and add it.
Also don't forget to make sure that the new account doesn't have administrator privileges.
I hope that works for you.
Thanks for that quick response however when I do this; In windows explorer go to Tools -> Folder Options -> View. Then in the list of tickable items right down at the bottom is "Use simple file sharing". Make sure it's unticked.
I haven't got "Use simple file sharing" on the tick list.

2) It wont let me sign into my email accounts, messenger, ebay, etsy, FB etc etc... I can browse ebay etc but cant log in to check to my auctions (bluddy annoying). Seems to be secure sites that I cant log into. When I try to log in a page comes up saying *This page cannot be displayed*
Just to do my bit smile . An acquaintance of mine who insisted on using Internet Explorer has had this problem, In their case I believe it was related to Mcafee. I told them to remove Mcafee(it was out of date), got her to download AVG Free (excellent program) to replace it and then told her to do this
Try disabling your firewall, anti-virus and other online security software.
1. Select Tools from the main toolbar in Internet Explorer.
2. Select Internet Options and click the Advanced tab.
3. Click Restore Defaults then Apply then OK.
4. Close your browser, restart the computer and try again.
* Please ensure that your Antivirus, Firewall and other online security software is back up and running*
If that doesn't work then do the same as above but click reset instead of restore
***Please be aware that this will delete all of your passwords and usernames from Internet Explorer*** so it is a good idea to make a note of them.

we have a acer lappy with inbuilt cam which always freezes or doesnt work (its in china at min with dek)
how easy is it to make an external cam the main one so when you switch cam on, it automatically chooses the external one? and not the inbuilt one?
can normal joe average not very pc literate me manage it? (when i have the lappy at home)

In XP,
open the control panel,
double click System
click the hardware tab
click device manager
It should look like this

If it doesn't then click view and select "view by type"
click the plus sign next to each category until you find the inbuilt camera on the list of items. It should be under something like "imaging devices"
When you have found the camera (Be certain it's the correct one), right click on the name and select disable.
For Vista
Goto control panel
click "hardware and sound"
click device manager
find the camera on the list
right click on it and disable
Hope that helps
Carl
