Installed on both FF and Chrome. Wow, compare the hassle of installing it on FF (multiple dialogs, a question, a restart) with the ease of installing it on Chrome (none of that).

Yes, Brits say "rooter" for router. But, despite what Gershwin claims, Brits do not say potah-to.

That's a winner, was just about to post the same.

"you really owe it to [telemarketers] to listen to what they have to say"

If your email client supports configurable toolbars then remove the 'Reply All' button from the visible toolbar. You almost never need 'Reply All'', but when you do need it then it's still available from the menus.

Think it's created by a company in South Africa so A4, not Letter, is their default paper size.

Someone dying within 2 years of taking out an insurance policy is clearly potentially suspicious. And it's surely acceptable to deny an insurance payout to someone who *knew* in advance of buying the insurance that they were going to die soon (or to commit suicide)? I guess the trick is what policy you use to…

No-one should have the right to publish details of an individual's sexual peccadilloes (assuming that they're between consenting adults). They're about as private as you can get and should remain that way. Both the videographer and the relevant editor at the NOTW should be in jail.

Right on brother. The Zune HD is a great piece of hardware and allied with the ZunePass and the excellent UI makes me weep for people out there using an Apple player and iTunes. Suspect that MS decided that it could not compete with the iPod touch in terms of app marketplace so basically eol'd the dedicated Zunes so…

DisplayFusion is a really good multi-monitor program for Windows. It provides hotkeys for an array of window management operations, including resizing and movement between monitors. It provides proper taskbars for each monitor, listing just the programs visible on that monitor. It's also decent on window-snapping…

Yet another reason to use a trackball mouse so you can spin the mouse pointer from one monitor to another quickly.

It's much more than just a different pronunciation — the word is actually spelled differently in Britain and the rest of the world (aluminium) vs. the US (aluminum). That's why it's pronounced differently. And, let's be honest, there's a compelling argument for the British variant being the 'correct' one — it's…

Chances of you having a wife/girlfriend that hot *and* knowing a buddy with the same is slim to none.

;-) Actually there's a step missing — you need to add the number you first thought of.

[Windows] There's also a GUI version of the Windows at.exe, called winat.exe. Available in older resource kits (like win2k).

I ran into something like this, where the SP1 update got to "stage 3 of 3 do not power down" but then hung for hours. Interestingly, hitting ctrl+alt+del brought up the login dialog and I was able to login. Re-ran Windows update and it showed nothing new to install, so seemed to have completed the original update,…

That strategy seems to be incompatible with keeping your system patched against malware.

I did likewise with a younger Win2k machine. Mint was a pleasure to use. However, and this surprised me, the stock (Ubuntu) video driver was hopelessly inefficient, was constantly running at 40% of cpu, and made the machine unusable. By contrast the original Win2k (with native video driver) was quite fast. I spent…
