[H] Accessing Linux partition

2009-10-06 Thread Thane Sherrington
I have a hard drive that has an EXT3 partition on it. I have mounted it using Ext2Fsd, and I can see the drive, but some of the folders have colons in their names: Name:11 Name:12 etc. So Windows won't let me navigate to them or rename them. Any idea how I can access the files inside? T

I've just recently been using ad blocking at the router level which makes it really nice for any machines on the LAN. You don't have to set anything now or run any special plugins or apps. I built a little embedded 4 port box running clarkconnect (turnkey firewall linux distro) It handles QOS ve

AT&T has had us on it for a while now. It's OK for web-based mail as long as you use Ad Block Plus. :) I was pissed beyond belief when they added adverts last year. I called and complained, and pointed out that I was a paying customer since they are my ISP, but they didn't care. When at
