Republican vs. Democratic [Locked to Prevent Dispute]

Submitted by Chris Roby on August 20, 2008 - 10:23pm

In the spirit of the upcoming election, I was wondering everyone's choice for president and/or political views.

I would vote for Ralph Nader (If I could vote...)/My Family is registered Republican

[Topic locked my moderator PP - religious, political, etc talk is best kept out of these forums to prevent disputes]

Folder Error

Submitted by App Guy on August 20, 2008 - 12:51pm

Right after my family got home from vacation, we started our xp and had 9 updates. After it updated we tried to rename a folder but it said,

"Renaming, moving, or deleting 'New Folder' could make some programs not work. Are you sure you want to do this?"

What is this?

CHKDSK on a Portable Hard Drive

Submitted by J Neutron on August 16, 2008 - 1:16pm

Somehow, a file on my portable hard drive has become corrupt. The file is the .ini file for adblockplus, an add-on for Firefox.

  • Adblockplus and Firefox don't complain about the corruption.
  • Toucan and 7-Zip give corruption warnings.
  • Text editors give corruption warnings.
  • Delete does not work and gives Windows-level corruption/error messages, as does rename.
  • Uninstalling the add-on in Firefox won't help either, since the self-delete does not work. Reinstall of the add-on merely uses the same directory and files.
