RevJim 0 #1 February 13, 2003 Attach a screenshot too! Kinda cool to see how tidy and/or totally f$%ked up some peoples computers are. I had to "clean" a buddies computer last night, and I tell ya, his taskbar used the entire bottom section, and his desktop was full of links to programs that had been removed months ago! Made me look at mine.... Not too bad, but WTF, it's mine!It's your life, live it!

SkydiveMonkey 0 #7 February 13, 2003 Get your desktop showing, press "print screen" (at the top of the keyboard near the right). Open paint or other graphics program, and press ctrl-v.____________________ Say no to subliminal messages Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChasingBlueSky 0 #8 February 13, 2003 Nice and clean is the way to go, with as little in the taskbar, and almost nothing running in the background. I love to have great pictures on the desktop - but I like higher resolutions, at 32bit, with a 75 refresh rate. Because of this, the redraw of the screen gets on my nerves after a short period of time and I am back to looking at a solid color. BTW - you may want to think of switching over to KazaaLite.com No spyware on it. Run Ad-Aware and you will see just how many little programs are running on your system._________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me....

RevJim 0 #9 February 13, 2003 I ran adaware, and of course, it disabled Kazza. Isn't Kazza lite the one you have to pay for? Yea, I know, the link is still there, but the program is dead.It's your life, live it!

ChasingBlueSky 0 #15 February 13, 2003 KazaaLite is free - It is a hacked version done up by someone that was upset about the Supernode and spyware in Kazaa. www.kazaalite.com is the best place to get it - and the zip file has instructions on how to install it. Its just a matter of running the install program, then replacing the exe file, and placing a host file in the system directory. Also, I see you still use Easy CD - once I switched over to Ahead Nero I couldn't remember why I used Adaptec anymore._________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me....
