What will happen with the Internet?

The internet will evolve with the evolution of technology.

The internet started with dial up bulletin boards where you could only type text in. You could download small files only due to slow modem speeds and errors in the transmission of information.

The world Wide Web came along and you could see pictures on the internet.

With higher speed internet connections it became feasible to have audio and video on the internet.

Now we are getting 3D on T.Vs so I don't see it being too long before we start to have 3D videos on the internet as fairly standard fare.

The internet has reached us through our senses of sight and sound. In the future I would see it reaching out to the senses of touch and smell. Taste I see as more difficult but somebody will come up with a solution.

How do you remove a blank ATI DAO using Program Add Remove?

You can't as Add remove programs MAIN FEATURE is to remove programs not blanks. When they appear blank is because they no longer exist in the registry and they have been removed (partially) or a spyware has attacked the registry causing the add/remove view to be deteriored. in order to get rid of the blank (if it really bothers you), you need to manually delete a registry entry (yellow folder) from HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall If you go there you will notice so many folders (entries). If you cannot spot the name of the folder as ATI DAO, then you need to click on each folder that is not defined accurately (for example a folder called {cddfdfasdfsdfs} or anything that doe't mean something) and look for the name under DISPLAY NAME. If under the DISPLAY NAME the name is ATI DAO then you have found the folder. Delete it by right clicking on it and choose DELETE. HINT: the folder will always be/appear on your right side while the display name is an entry of the folder located on the left side. Technically these types of entries with the AB icons are called STRING VALUE entries. If you never used regedit (registry) before, I recommend in getting first some information before deleting ATI DAO Dan Schenker
