    XP Quick launch desk top shortcut icon???

    It disappeared on my wifes computer. Where can I find it? Programs and others are easy to do, you just make a duplicate icon and drag it down to the start bar, but the desktop is not a typical program so I can't find a way to do it.

    Camera Phone Picture

    Weird deal here! I received a .jpg picture that was picture texted to my cell phone. I then emailed it to my computer and then copied it to a directory. By all indications it is a plain old 51kb JPEG picture. I tried to email that picture as an attachment and the email never reaches it's...

    Boston Marathon results?

    Anyone have a clue how to find the placement of a runner? I have a niece who entered the marathon. I have tried to google for a list of placements and the closest I come is to confirm, as of 4/20/08, that she is an entrant. I have her 'bib' number but all I find are the top ten men and women...

    How much Aspirin...

    ...should you get down someone who has had a stroke? Everything I've heard is that you want to get aspirin in someone fast. It also seems that if you could rapidly crush it and put it in a cup of water, if the victim has recovered sufficiently to swallow, that would be the best way to...

    Internet Explorer 7?

    With the advent of a slew of MS updates all kinds of goofy things seem to be happening. I won't go into them all here but it seems that on different household computers, different things happen. Case in point, Mrs WO's Laptop. When she opens IE7, a duplicate tab opens at the same time. Is...

    Propecia! Has/does anyone take it?

    Seems that nature is playing a disheartening trick on my 20 y/o son. Without any genetic history (that we know of) on either side of the family, my son has been going bald, at least on the top front. His total body hair pattern is the opposite of mine. I have a healthy head of hair and little...

    Turning off wireless scan on startup?

    How do you disable the search for a wireless network on start up. It's for Mrs WO's laptop. I know I have done it before but for the life of me I cannot find where to do it. I'da thought you would have just right clicked on the icon in the start up tray but there is no option there. I've...
