For a router firewall check the bottom/sides/top of the router (the internet box, there's a yellow, blue, or grey cord clipped into the back of your computer unless you have wireless, follow that to the box. ) and it will give you an ip address (looks like 192.168.0.3 or some set of numbers like that) and possibly a user name and password as well. Type the series of numbers (ip address) in the top bar in you internet browser where it says wiki.answers.com and then hit enter. Type any user names or passwords requested. Look for firewall somewhere on the screen.

Why wont your 93 lumina van charging system work?

make sure the battery charged up, put a volt meter on the battery with the van running and see what the output voltage is, 13.5-14.5. if the voltage reading is low the problem is the alternator or regulator(which is inside the alternator) you will need to replace the alternator I HAD THIS SAME PROBLEM. BEFORE YOU SPEND ANY MONEY, IS YOUR ALTERNATOR LIGHT COMING ON [ A LIL BATT TO YOUR TOP LEFT ] IF YOU DON'T SEE IT YOU PROBLEM IS THERE. GM VEHICLE HAVE THIS PROBLEM, WHEN YOU TURN THE KEY [NO STARTING] THE ALTERNATOR LITE [THE LIL BATT TO YOUR LEFT] IS NOT ON THE ALTERNATOR WILL NOT CHARGE SO CHECK THAT LITE SOMETIME THE BULB IS BURN BUT MOST OF THE TIME BETWEEN THE BULB AND THE CONNECTION TO CHECK THE BULB OR CONNECTION, REMOVE TWO SCREW BETWEEN EACH END OF THE CLUSTER DASHBOARD THEN LIFT THE DASHCOVER P.S IF YOUR ALTERNATOR LITE COME ON WHEN YOU TURN THE KEY THEN YOUR ALTERNATOR IS BAD OR YOUR BATT CAN'T HOLD A CHARGE

What is pacman?

Pac-Man is an arcade game released in 1980. It is a maze game invented by Toru Iwatani. Pac-Man eats pellets and runs from ghosts named Blinky, Pinky, Inky, and Clyde. Pac-Man also has four power pellets per maze. For a short time, they allow him to eat the ghosts, which always reappear. The game is never supposed to end. However, when the 256th maze appears, the right side shows various letters and numbers. Because of this bug, players cannot go to the next screen.

For a couple of years after Pac-Man first came out, if people wanted to play, they had to do it at an arcade. When the home edition was released in 1982, the graphics were not very good. Control was not as smooth either. However, Americans were happy with it.

Almost 20 years after the game came out, Billy Mitchell made history. On July 3, 1999, he became the first person to get the highest possible score (3,333,360 points). It took him six hours to get to the 256th maze without losing any lives.

Pac-Man is a symbol for the golden age of video arcade games. Jerry Buckner and Gary Garcia wrote the hit song "Pac-Man Fever" at the height of the game's popularity. Women really liked this video game because the characters are so cute. There are 23 different games in the Pac-Man series. They have been released on most home systems.

Is it a computer virus if you can't type the letter Y in lower case?

no the key board is stuffed!

@previous person who answered:

do you not understand the question?

he/she mentioned that he/she had been unable to type the letter 'Y' in "lowercase".

he/she had specified it as "lowercase". which means that he/she is able to type it in "uppercase". Since he/she can type the letter in uppercase, how could his/her keyboard be stuffed.

How do you protect against chiggers?

The best product to use on the bite is

chigger bite ointment. This ointment will take the "itch"

away and promote healing. Since

chiggers will readily climb over clothing to

get to your flesh, use permethrin concentrate on shoes and pants. Permethrin is odorless, easy

to mix and works well at keeping many pests

away. Mix some up in a small spray bottle for

spraying while afield. Be sure to use it on shoes

and pants to keep them off and apply as needed.

Though the aerosol is easy to use, the concentrate

will prove to be more cost effective if you will

be using a lot. As an added measure, you should

treat your skin with some repellent as well. This

way if the chiggers some how get past your clothes,

they won't want to stick around on your treated

skin. There are many repellents for use one your

skin but the best is either citronella lotion

or deet . Citronella has long been used as a general

insect repellent and though not too effective

when dispersed in the air, it does a good job

as a contact repellent. This lotion can be applied

as frequently as needed and won't pose a hazard

to anyone that wants some type of protection. If

the chiggers are really bad and you want the

strongest protection available, the Deet would

be the best choice. It will last longer then the

Citronella and will work better overall.

What did the first computers look like?

According to me what I think is you can copy this below given Link in Address bar to know more about ENIAC (world's first computer with a Video Clipping)

AnswerThe first ELECTRONIC computer (ENIAC) consisted of several rooms full of racks filled with vacuum tubes, wiring, and relays. You could walk down aisles "through" the computer which seems a strange concept given today's technology! It used a tremendous amount of electricity, generated a tremendous amount of heat, and had frequent failures.

It is possible to argue that Charles Babbage's Difference Engine was perhaps the first computer (though it was mechanical not electronic, see: difference-engine

Possibly the first successful programmable (by wiring), electronic, computer was the Colossus Computer built in Bletchley Park

colossus-computer
Roughly like the photo above of the recreation of the Atanasoff Berry Computer, the first electronic digital computer (it was not programmable). The first programmable electronic digital computers were significantly bigger.

What is a fake virus?

A fake virus is something that looks like a virus, but is a "contained virus" in a way because the user of the "infected" computer can just shutdown their computer, and it will be all good again. A good way to make these fake viruses are via command prompt (batch files), and java scripts.

96 Suburban 454 cool weather high idle very hard shifting turn key off after warm up turn key back on idle and shifting back to normal going on for long time Whats wrong?

Answer 1I'm not familiar with your vehicle, so this answer will be generic based on the symptoms you describe.

On most vehicles, when the engine is cold, the engine control system sets the idle speed up above what is normal for a warm engine. As the engine warms up, the control system [a bunch of sensors combined with an engine control computer] backs off on the idle speed until, when the engine is up to normal operating temperature, the idle speed is back to it's normal [lowest] setting.

Regarding the shifting difficulty, you did not mention what type of transmission you have, but I suspect that it is a manual.

Manual transmissions have small "clutches," [sort of] on the gear shafts which are called SYNCRONIZERS. When a manual transmission is being shifted, the moving gears which you want to mesh are seldom spinning at the same speed, and do not want to mesh.

The job of the syncronizer "clutch" is to drag on both gears, effectively slowing one down and the other slightly up, so they are both spinniing closer to the same speed, allowing them to more easily mesh. Also, until the vehicle has been driven a bit, the lubricant in the transmission is thicker, which also helps to resist movement of the shifting mechanism, contributing to the shift difficulty.

The shut down time you describe allows the warm up engine heat to difuse throughout the engine, warming up the engine coolant temperature sensor enough, to then send an "engine warm" signal to the engine control system, which on restart, allows the engine to idle at a lower speed, thereby facilitating easier shifting.

Hope this helps until an expert engine and transmission mechanic improves this answer.

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

The transmission on the 96 suburban is an automatic overdrive. All of the "control systems" you mentioned should do all of the heat up and RPM slowdown "automaticly" and used to do it just perfectly. Now, the RPMs stay high, above 1100 RPMs, until I shut the engine down by turning the key off. When restarted, the RPMs go high, Instantly, and then come back down below 1000RPMs and the hard shifting returns to the normal shifting. When I say "hard Shifting", I'm talking about the feeling of being "rear ended" at about 15 mph. The transimission had to be rebuilt last year because of this problem, which seem to fix the problem, but it was warmer weather...now that it's "cold" again, the problem has returned. Sometimes, not all of the times, I even get the "Check Engine" light. It seems temperature related to me, but there are so many temp sensors located all through the engine and transmission. Any other help is apprciated.

How can you remove the Trojan horse Startpage 4 BS that writes into the notepad exe?

Here's what I did..."try at your own risk": The Trojan notepad.exe is a bogus, so I simply deleted it. You may have to cut/paste to your desktop in order to delete it. Now do a search for notepad.exe on your C: drive. Or you may have to search manually. After you have found the "real" notepad.exe open a notepad document. Windows will say it cannot locate notepad.exe because the Trojan had windows configured to open the bogus notepad to the shortcut, and you have deleted it. Simply click browse and direct windows to the "real" notepad.exe...That's it. Windows will configure the shortcut back to the real notepad.
