This website (safetyonlinepage.com) consistently comes up as my home page when I have not listed it in my 'Internet Options' as a home page. How can I stop it from doing this? Any ideas? I ran McAfee and it quarantined a virus today but safetyonlinepage.com keeps coming up as my home page. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! lesko

I have a Toshiba PC and a MacBook both on the same wireless network. I want to copy files from the Toshiba onto the MacBook. I have enabled file sharing for the folder on the Toshiba. I'm looking for a Mac equivalent (if there is one) of "network neighborhood." That is, what application do I use on the MacBook that allows me to "see" the folder on the Toshiba? Thanks.

I am setting up a new MacBook Pro. As part of setup, I am being asked to connect to wireless network. The MacBook has detected the SSID of our home network. We have a DLink 614+ wireless router, which I believe is 802.11b compliant. It has WEP encryption, using a 26 character hex key. Our curren PCs connect fine. During MacBook setup, we are given a list of detected networks, and our current one's SSID appears on that list. MacBook then asks us for "password." I try putting in the 26 character key, but it isn't working. Am I doing...

Currently I am running Internet Explorer Version 6.0 and sometimes when I access website, it briefly crashes. Some commercial sites I cannot see particular scripts that run in the front. Also, When I go to websites such as wwtdd.com I cannot see inline videos. All I see is the quicktime symbol with a big question mark. I believe I have the latest version of quicktime and the latest version of Flash 8.0. Any suggestions (other than get off the internet)?

Need some help Recently mp3 files on cd's I put in my box have started showing up as .cda files that are 1 kb big instead of mp3 files. I cannot transfer these to an mp3 player nor copy them to a cd. My older music files still remain as mp3's. What has happened? And what must I do to once again read these as mp3's? Thanks for any help

I've searched extensively online for a new ISP. No luck. I think I'll have better luck with recommendations from my FReeper FRiends. Requirements: 1) It must be cheap. No more than $140-$180 a year ($15 a month max) or not much higher. 2)It must be faster than 46.6 kbps. (That's the fastest speed I can log on at now.) Would prefer 50.6 kbps or higher. Thank you for any recommendations.

CQ CQ CQ - Doctor Raoul has kindly asked if I would ping the Ham List in the hopes that a technically skilled Freeper may be able to assist with repairs to PA systems to be used in Freeps. Excerpts from his Freepmail appear below: ========================================================= I have a number of Amplivox portable PAs. It may be that I'm not aligning the prongs on the battery case or perhaps corrosion. Have a schematic on bottom of case. Need them checked out and then we can send them to people doing counter-protests. I think it's possible to wire them up to...

Recently, a company that I regularly work with upgraded their smartphones from the Palm VII and 600 series to the 700w. While this is useful for portability of work files in the field, many of their employees are having difficulty in updating their contact lists to the new devices. As the older phones (which run on Palm OS) used Palm HotSync, and the 700w (which runs on Windows Mobile) uses the seemingly completely incompatible MS ActiveSync, a quick transfer of this info via PC is not usable. Eventually, I showed some people how to beam contacts and memos individually between...
