Re: [CGUYS] Free antivirus to replace AVG?

I believe the case is that when you download free AVG, registration is required to keep it running. They send you an email with a registration key or such and you have to install it in your AVG within 60 days or such or the free AVG copy will stop working... db Randall wrote: In a few days

Hmmm! I'm sorry to hear about the power supply failures! As far as the temperature goes, my drive is just slightly warm. I hope that means that the PS is less likely to fail. On Jun 22, 2008, at 9:34 PM, Tom Piwowar wrote: I'm been using a LaCie d2Quadra 750 GB drive for about 6 months an

Re: [CGUYS] Free antivirus to replace AVG?

Thanks for the suggestions. Funny, the ONLY option it was giving me when I clicked on the notice of expiration was for the paid AVG 8.0; think it was a larger security bundle than just antivirus or whatever is provided in the free AVG. Had to go to Grisoft.com to get the free version. Guess they

[CGUYS] Saving and transfering profiles in FireFox

It was suggested here that slow-running FireFox might be caused by too many profiles and that I should create a new one and delete the others. Can't see how to save and transfer the information from the old profiles (specifically saved websites and passwords) to the new profile. Seems there shou

Re: [CGUYS] External Terabyte hard drives - recommendations ple

If the drive runs hot on a unit for which the power supply has failed, it is possible/likely that the drive _unit_ (perhaps the circuitry of the drive itself, perhaps the interface circuitry in the box) has a capacitor with a low grade short or other partial short that is overloading the power s

Re: [CGUYS] Saving and transfering profiles in FireFox

One source of slow operation is the antivirus scanner. As the antivirus scanner upgrades, more and more system resources are required for the additional scanning features and the additional virus strings to be scanned for. Try turning off your anti-virus and see how fast the machine runs. Fre

Re: [CGUYS] External Terabyte hard drives - recommendations ple

The other part of this is the power supplies are made by an outside vendor to LaCie's specifications. It is possible they got a batch of bad power supplies or latched onto a bad vendor with the power supplies. Now that does not excuse them for putting out a bad product because it does carry
