So, you're insinuating that the only way to resolve financial hardship is to get involved in a "Get rich quick" scam. What utter bollocks! If you can't see any other alternatives to this then you need help.

No' date=' but if you're "desperate", why would you keep a PC when you could get something for it?? Exactly because the people this type of scam tricks are STUPID people, not DESPERATE people. (And this is the point I was [i']trying to make!)

The reply address is a yahoo account. If Yahoo shut it down, no-one else can get conned. They'll then use another address, which will also get shut down if everyone complained. 1. Well then, they deserve everything they get. Like banks offering students credit cards. 2. Desperation is no excuse. On the same premise, would they rob a bank out of 'desperation'. And... if they're that deperate, why not sell their PC?

The easiest way to stop this is to not subscribe your email address to newsgroups and foreign mailing lists or advertisers and delete the email as soon as you open it. Do not forward it on. Report the email to abuse@yahoo.co.uk People who fall for this are stupid.

I have at least 18 scarfs and been on over 50 flights, does that count? Why are they called Chaos Defrost? Do they live on frozen meals?

SSSShhhhhhhh!

Best listings I've seen so far. Good call.

This made me chortle a bit: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/africa/4748292.stm Which animal would you most like to Marry?

Yes, that is a good point. There's no proven link, but one may be discovered. I'm sure when there is a link discovered, the government will use this to their own ends and say "Told you so!" By the way, how long have you been playing cello for?

In that case, it could easily be Fox News

YESSSS!!!! For Christ's Sake! Does no one know how to READ nowadays. FFS!

I suggest you read my posts more carefully. I am FOR the ban and I know that passive smoking causes other illnesses. The point is that the government is using a study to prove the links between Passive Smoking and Lung Cancer which is flawed and implausible. It is Propaganda. If they'd used more credible facts, like the ones you've made, things would be different. And yes, the majority of studies have concluded that passive smoking DOES NOT cause Lung Cancer attributable to smoking.

Better? It was shite to start with.

It's political correctness all gone wrong. There are too many oversensitive Mary Whitehouse types in this world.

It may also be: When you were installing the HD and DVD you may have loosened the PSU brick from the motherboard fastening point. Make sure it is secure by pressing down on it (the white piece of lego with different coloured wires coming out of it. Personally, I think it is more likely to be the BIOS overheat shutdown facility, as Cloud pointed out. As far as PSU's go, for your set-up 350W to 400W is perfectly fine. Anything more is a total waste of money.

If you're not using Media Player 10, download it from Microsoft Update. Try googling "K-Lite Codec pack", downloading and installing it... then reboot. If that doesn't work try switching it off and back on again. To see what filetype it is, look at the file extension. If there isn't one: 1] Click MY COMPUTER 2] From the menubar TOOLS > FOLDER OPTIONS 3] Click the VIEW tab at the top 4] Untick the box HIDE EXTENSIONS FOR KNOWN FILE-TYPES 5] Click OK 6] Go back the the folder with your video in it and press the F5 key to refresh. This will show all file extensions from now on.

He probably said: "Where were you fuckers last night?" What I want to know is... what's so antisocial about saying something like this to your mates? This planet amazes me. Oooooo.
