Suddenly No Photos FF 2.0.0.4 or IE7

Submitted by dford3772 on July 6, 2007 - 9:34am

I need help from the wizards on this list!

Suddenly this a.m. when I boot up Sage produces no photos,none on blog feeds, in short neither browser will produce phots--the boxes are blank. In searching the Web
I find others are having this problem but no one has a fix. What's going on?

I'm operating WinXP SV Pk II fully updated, Commodo Firewall, and latest Avast AV.
Avast did update the data base but I know of no other changes.
Please help if you have experience with this problem.

Does anybody know of a free and/or Open Source application that can view/edit files with the .eps (vector image) extension? I was sent some files formatted in this file type and am not sure what to do with them. Please advise, thanks!

Hi all,

I'm interested in learning code, but am not sure which language to start with. (C, C+, C++, Pascal, Delphi, Etc.)

Which type of programming language is best for someone who is completely new and unexperienced? (I also don't want to learn something that will become obsolete in a year from now.)

Thanks a lot, you guys are totally awesome.

internet connection monitoring programs

Submitted by stromy93 on July 2, 2007 - 1:07am

I'm looking for a neat freeware program that will measure the amount of time you are connected via DSL and dial up. Also lists amount uploaded and downloaded. This is done by day, week, and month. Something similar to DU Meter (www.dumeter.com). I've been using DU Meter, but it will give me everything but for the connection time for the DSL mode. Thanks!

Yippee! Library's Using Linux!

So, I went to the Library, cause I'm cool like that. And it's like "Internet", so I'm like, sweet. I sat down, I clicked on the little "Applications and Internet" button, and it logged me into a profile. I notice the Windows theme is different, thinking, hmm, that's odd, I library using custom themes. Then I see click the "Start Here" (Menu) button. It brings up the program list.

OpenOffice.org writer, no way, that's sweet I think.
