Computers

One possible reason is that your browser "cache" may be too full. This is where the 'cookies' are kept from all the websites you have visited. This needs to be dumped periodically - I do this weekly as part of my normal routine maintenance.

The concept of having the cache is to have a 'copy' of each website you have opened - when returning to those same sites, the computer doesn't have to search the internet, rather just searches the cache first and pulls up the page in a much shorter period of time. When this cache gets full, the search time spent by the computer is almost overwhelming, and it "gets tired" and stops looking. An analogy to this is when you are looking for your personal checkbook, but the drawer where it's located has 2,000,000 checkbooks in it, and you need to look through every single one in order to find the one you need. If the cache is dumped (no harm at all), then you have only 5 or so checkbooks to look through to find the one you need.

Another possible reason is that your Internet Service Provider (ISP) is having problems ... often times when email and internet are tied together, one can work and the other doesn't ... internet and email are two different online entities and work independently and from different servers.

Other possibilities are:

- modem problems,

- router problems,

- home wiring connection problems,

- ethernet card

Anyhow, Go-to Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Open Services. Or type "services.msc" in Run Box.

There you can see computer browser service which depends on two more services which are Server and Workstation. These services starting mode should be Automatic and also check that these services should be started.

Now reboot the machine..

If the error exist than install bugs free LINUX........

THINGS YOU NEVER KNEW YOUR CELL PHONE COULD DO.

There are a few things that can be done in times of grave emergencies. Your mobile phone can actually be a life saver or an emergency tool for survival. Check out the things that you can do with it:

FIRST

Subject:

Emergency

The Emergency Number worldwide for Mobile is 112. If you find yourself out of the coverage area of your mobile; network and there is an emergency, dial 112 and the mobile will search any existing network to establish the emergency number for you, and interestingly this number 112 can be dialed even if the keypad is locked. Try it out.

SECOND

Subject:

Have you locked your keys in the car?

Does your car have remote keyless entry? This may come in handy someday. Good reason to own a cell phone: If you lock your keys in the car and the spare keys are at home, call someone at home on their cell phone from your cell phone. Hold your cell phone about a foot from your car door and have the person at your home press the unlock button, holding it near the mobile phone on their end. Your car will unlock. Saves someone from having to drive your keys to you. Distance is no object. You could be hundreds of miles away, and if you can reach someone who has the other "remote" for your car, you can unlock the doors (or the trunk). Editor's Note: It works fine! We tried it out and it unlocked our car over a cell phone!"

THIRD

Subject:

Hidden Battery Power

Imagine your cell battery is very low. To activate, press the keys *3370# your cell will restart with this reserve and the instrument will show a 50% increase in battery. This reserve will get charged when you charge your cell next time.

FOURTH

How to disable a STOLEN mobile phone?

To check your Mobile phone's serial number, key in the following digits on your phone: * # 0 6 # A 15 digit code will appear on the screen. This number is unique to your handset. Write it down and keep it somewhere safe. When your phone gets stolen, you can phone your service provider and give them this code. They will then be able to block your handset so even if the thief changes the SIM card, your phone will be totally useless. You probably won't get your phone back, but at least you know that whoever stole it can't use/sell it either. If everybody does this, there would be no point in people stealing mobile phones.

And Finally...

FIFTH

Cell phone companies are charging us $1.00 to $1.75 or more for 411 information calls when they don't have to. Most of us do not carry a telephone directory in our vehicle, which makes this situation even more of a problem. When you need to use the 411 information option, simply dial: (800) FREE 411, or (800) 373-3411 without incurring any charge at all. Program this into your cell phone now. This is the kind of information people don't mind receiving, so pass it on to your family and friends.

Analysis: Beware forwarded emails offering esoteric tips and tricks "you never knew." Most of the claims in this message are either false or have limited applicability. Let's examine them one by one:

CLAIM: The worldwide emergency number for cell phones is 112.

Not quite. Throughout most of Europe and a few countries outside of the EU, dialing 112 will connect users to local emergency services. However, the number won't work in North America, nor most of Asia and Africa. Many, but not all, cell phone models will allow special emergency numbers to be dialed even if the phone lacks a SIM card or the keypad is locked.

CLAIM: Unlock a car door with your cell phone and a spare remote key.

False. As discussed previously in these pages, cell phones and remote keyless entry systems work on entirely different radio frequencies. Therefore, cell phones are incapable of re-transmitting the signal from a remote key to unlock a car door.

CLAIM: Press *3370# to access 'reserve battery power.'

False. On some Nokia phones, users can punch in special codes and toggle between speech codec modes to 1) enhance voice transmission quality at the cost of diminished battery performance, or 2) enhance battery performance by decreasing voice quality. Apparently, some users have misconstrued the latter as "tapping into reserve battery power." On that score the email is doubly erroneous because *3370# is the code for enhancing voice quality, so using it actually decreases battery life!

CLAIM: Press *#06# to disable a stolen cell phone.

Not exactly. On some cell phone models, but not all, pressing *#06# will cause the phone's 15-digit International Mobile Equipment Identity to be displayed. Some service providers, but not all, can use that information to deactivate the handset. In any case, it isn't necessary to supply an IMEI number to cancel your cellular account in the event of theft; simply call your provider, give them the appropriate account information, and tell them the phone was stolen.

CLAIM: Make 411 calls on your cell phone without charge by dialing (800) FREE 411.

Basically true (see previous commentary on Free 411), though cell phone users may still incur a charge for minutes used, depending on the specifics of their plan.

It means different things depending on the context. The common word wads is the plural of wad and refers to lumps of a soft material.

Examples:

"My daughter came home with wads of Chewing Gum stuck in her hair."

"There was nothing in my pocket except for small wads of paper and lint."

In computer gaming usage, a .wad file is a file that contains maps, graphics, sounds, music, and other video game elements.

Because when you are touch typing you are using 9 to 10 fingers each doing a different job. When you write you use one whole hand for 1 job at a time so that is why people type faster than they write. It's quite simple really.

Yes; it is so "simple" that the most important reason has not even been touched on [no pun intended!LOL]

The main reason is that when typing, the letters are already formed for you!

When you write, you have to take the time to form them.

More specifically, typing is faster than writing simply because in order to actually write anything by hand the brain must picture the letter, then it must order the appropriate hierarchy of muscular patterns and movements to carry out the task and and then innervate the appropriate muscles of the hands accordingly. Finally, then, of course, the muscles of the hands and forearm must physically act and form the letters when the pen touches paper, which not only includes lateral movement in the horizontal plane to shape the letters, but also variations in pen pressure upon the paper in the vertical plane just in forming the one letter, whereas in typing, the letters are already formed.

In typing, all one needs to do is touch the correct letter.

So once you have the arrangement of keyboard letters correctly in place in your mind (through practice), the brain triggers the appropriate movement pattern for your finger to reach the right key, then your hand/finger (latter if you can touch type) takes the barest moment to merely reach the appropriate letter and touch it.
