Bye Bye Privacy :(

Palos

I think this serves a higher purpose than to filter for keywords and accounts at different ISPs across the world. They know that it is virtually impossible to pinpoint a suspicious activity based on eavesdropping and log analysis, for the following reasons: - To anaylise all the info in realtime as they boast, then ...

W2K or XP?

areid

I'm just about to purchase a new laptop pc, but I'm torn between having W2K pro or XP pro as the pre-installed operating system. I already have W2K on my desktop pc and I am perfectly happy with it, but I am being pushed towards XP by the vendors.

CD-R/CD-RW Media Poll

pmistry

I just recently upgraded my Mitsumi 4x/4x/24x burner to an LG 32x/10x/40x burner. The first time I tried to burn a disc at 32x I got an error at 5 %, this is using Nero 5. 5. 8. 2. I tried again and burned 3 straight discs correctly and since then haven't had a problem burning.

Know any good Win9x forums?

postitlord

Can anyone recommend a Windows 98SE forum? Or just a general Windows 9x forum would make me happy. I tried searching in Google, but results were mediocre. Either too low traffic to get responses, or too few members, or the forum itself was horridly setup with that 200 pixel margin wasting space on the left.

Just bought a bulk pack of CD-Rs. Unlike the other packages we've purchased in the past, there is no matte-white finish on the non-read side of the CDs. Can we write directly on the CD with a broad-tip magic marker or similar pen without the matte finish? If no, what's the best way to protect the CDs surface so we ...

SnapperOne

We've decided to scan and than store onto CD-Rs several thousand pages of business notes and Board of Director minutes using an HP Scanjet 4400C scanner and Plextor 12/10/32A CD-RW burner. Since we do not want the stored documents to be alterable once they are stored on CD, it is our thought to scan the documents a ...
