That's what is so strange about it, I have that option checked and there is still something going out that is being scanned by Norton. It always happens when the deleted items is emptied. Even if I activate the internet lock with something like Zone Alarm and wait a period of time, as soon as...

Hello, This question I have is regarding Outlook 2002 (not exchange). We have Norton Antivirus mail scan turned on so you can see when Outlook is sending mail by the small "scanning envelope" icon in the tray. We have the preview pane turned off for safety reasons so any email identified as...

Hello, This has never happened to me before so I was hoping to get a little guidance. I was setting up a new Dell for a friend of mine and had installed Norton antivirus. I thought I had updated all of the definitions but perhaps not because when I went to download zone alarm I began to get...

Thanks Chris, That was my understanding of how search engine crawlers worked but I am not proficient enough in the technology to automatically have contridicted her claim. Thanks again! Kathleen

Hi, I am in the middle of promoting a new informational site. It is not commercial or profit-based so our campaign is by no means highly sophisticated. I have created a small tasteful banner for the site and I am in the process of asking people to link to us. One person was told by her web...

DAGNABIT if that didn't do it! I took off the jumper and it sailed right on through. UGH! Simple solution. Thank you mainegeek! Kathleen

I'm dreading opening the case for the umpteenth time <grin> but I will try that today. I also intend to check out WD's site. I will let you know if it worked. Thanks! Kathleen

Hi, Thanks but I tried it as master & cable select and it did not help. To answer LloydSev, the drive is plugged into the ide to sata converter and that is connected to the mobo. There is no pci card. I will check WD site and see if there is some weird jumper setting that might help. Kathleen

Hi, Thanks for the input but I'm having more strangeness. As I said Windows recognized the drive and installed it but the drive disappears after a bit and is inaccessible. I have another 40GB Maxtor drive and that one worked fine when attached to the adapter. Both the bios and Windows found...

Hello, I have a new Dell 8400 and it came installed with a Serial ATA hard drive. I have a WD IDE 80GB drive that I want to use as the second drive in this computer. I did not like the idea of piggy-backing it with the optical drives and I did not want to take up a slot with an adapter card...

Thank you Mike! That did the trick. Can't thank you enough! Kathleen

Thank you but can you elaborate just a bit more? I am using the flash program provided by the motherboard manufacturer which is DFI. This is just a white box computer. :-( It basically just comes up with an interface and asks you for the name of the file that you want to flash. Will I be...

Hello, I was flashing an Award BIOS and the computer crashed. Now the BIOS is corrupted and when I went back to flash it again the keyboard will now type caps only. This means NO NUMBERS, just the shift characters. Obviously I cannot complete the flash without indicating the correct file to...

Hello, Thank you for the great suggestions but the question about what version of Reader made me realize that all of the XP users also have Acrobat installed. This was the issue. If you open the document with Reader the hyperlinks work fine, if you open the document with Acrobat it defaults to...

Hello all, This may prove to be an Explorer or XP issue but I felt I should ask. I have created a PDF document with hyperlinks leading to websites where people can access additional information. I have a group of users that when they click on the links, the web browser opens but it opens...
