Thank you both. I found her antivirus (comes from Computer Associates) is still updating. It updated just that week. But her antispyware is not. I tried to download and install Ad-Aware but they had just gone to their 2007 version and have dropped the old SE version that worked on Windows...

I could understand not providing updates to the scanning engine, but what does the nature of the OS have to do with definitions? That's what I want to know: yes or no: Are there no more DEFINITIONS to be had. If not, her safest course is to disable the Yahoo! protection and install AVG...

Thank you. I was afraid of that but I had to try. Tony Harris

My best friend has a Windows ME box on AT&T/Yahoo! DSL with Yahoo! Online Protection. The last couple times I was over there I made sure her AV and Anti-Spy were up to date. I got a warning message that seemed to say YOP would not longer be available for ME systems after July. I noticed no...

My best friend has a Windows Me system with SBC/AT&T/Yahoo! DSL. The last couple times I tried to update her Online Protection suite I got a warning message about how Microsoft pulled their support last year and they will not provide any up-to-date scanning engines after this month. I cannot...

Two years ago, I helped a friend of mine set up her new, secondhand, Windows Me PC. A few months later I helped her install and set up AT&T Yahoo! DSL. I installed the included Yahoo! Online Protection Suite with ZoneAlarm and Spybot Search & Destroy. Ever since whenever I have been over I...

I'm going to try booting to DOS, the use the DLGEZ/MBR command. However, the post on the WD website only (v. 2.8), so I'm not certail DLGEZ will even be on the disk (v. 10.0). Anybody out there have Western Digital Data Lifeguard 10.0? If so, is DLGEZ.EXE on it? Tony Harris tgharris_1@juno.com

I'm on a very tight budget right now. I'd prefer not to have to buy anything if I don't absolutely have to. Tony Harris tgharris_1@juno.com

My best friend has a new computer. Actually the computer is an old one (Pentium III, WinME) with a new 80GB Western Digital drive. The disk was partitioned using Western Digital's Data Lifeguard Tools version 10.0. Somehow, trying to repair a faulty Windows install (not my fault) EZ-BIOS went...

Perhaps you could help me. I have ActiveState ActivePerl 5.8.0 installed on my Windows 98SE system along with cygwin postgreSQL. The problem is, I can't seem to connect with postgreSQL without the following: <snip> DBI connect('dbname=perl-begin;','tgharris',...) failed: Couldn't connect to...

I've just installed RedHat 6.1 on my Compaq 5360 system, but there's something wrong. Though I followed the installation directions, when I try to install my Epson Stylus Color 440 printer, the machine claims it cannot find any parallel ports (dev/lp0, dev/lp1, etc.) I really do not wish to...

Mine is the opposite problem: I've split a 1+GB partition off my 10GB HD and tried to install Red Hat 6.0 on it. Succeeded actually . . . The problem is, it doesn't seem to install LILO properly. Every time I reboot after a &quot;successful&quot; install, I get just Windows 98, not LILO. I...

You guys might know by now, but www.freewwweb.com is no longer online. Bummer :( Tony Harris tgharris@techie.com

I'm using a null-modem &quot;LapLink&quot; cable through the LPT1 (parallel) ports. Don't rush, though, I've repartitioned the HD with Ranish Partition Manager (http://come.to/ranish), so I should be able to install NT through the existing Win 95 OS. Thank you all for all your help Tony <p>Tony...
