I have not got nothing against Microsoft and plans for world domination but i wish they would just stop with the bubbles, warning and crap.

Tune on my computer and everytime pop up bubble. "theres a problem with your firewall" NO! it is not a problem i just dont use it.

Bubble pop up "Windows automatic update is not turned on" I KNOW! I dont want it on, i like to choose when i update on my own.

Open IE 7 does it take me to my homepage. NO! because i like to use Opera now and again it asks "would i like to make IE7 my default explorer" You know what i dont care which one is the default. Just fight it out in the back ground and leave me out of it.

Pop up "The phishing filter is not turned no would you like to turn it on now" STOP IT NOW.

All these messages may be good for people that are new to PC but i dont want to know and when you click no it just pops up the next time.

Ahhhhhhhhh i feel a bit better now.

Why don't you just tell firewall,anti-virus, and automatic updates not to remind you?

Pretty easy to stop it, as Geestar said. Plus, if you don't want to get the annoying pop ups, why did you install IE 7? You will find that it will foul up most any program that embeds the browser, namely some video editing programs.

yo geestar! haven't seen you in a while! I've been busy too, havent been around alot lately either...what you been up to buddy?

yeah ditch windows firewall and use ZoneAlarm, or if you have a good router they usually have firewalls built in so you protection there as well.

For the best quality mp3s use EAC (exact audio copy) to rip your audio CDs and LAME to encode them. Follow this guide:

That's a Discmaster II, right? I'm still use Discmasters. Got a whole ton of em a few years back.

-Do you believe you own your computer and shouldn't be told what you can run and do? Then say *NO* to Microsoft Vista!
-Since half the questions here involve media problems, here ya go: Only use Verbatim or Taiyo-Yuden discs (get your TYs from Rima.com, not Supermediastore or meritline). Forget the rest, no matter what "brand" they sell under. Always burn at 4x speed regardless of the speed rating of this discs or your drive. If you have burn problems with these then you have to update your drive's firmware. For double-layer discs, only use Verbatim DVD+R DL and burn them at 2.4x speed.

@Xsilver

below is how you shut off the pop-ups for the security center...(Go to Control Panel)










This is how you shut off Automatic Updates... (Go to Control Panel)







At least it gets rid of some of the pop-ups.

Got the silvers because that's what I've always used and they've been making them since the stone age that way. But as longas I have 1200's I don't care...:)

Nah, i did it from about 1985 to 1996 when i was younger the music has changed alot since then and i am to out of touch with the new (pop,dance etc.) music to do it anymore. BUT i could still do the occasionally "Wedding Reception" or "Class Reunion" if needed. it was a great time in my life and i had a blast doing it. setting up the system and lights ,play music ,drinking all night watching great looking girls dance and having a good time and then getting payed great money at the end of the night.
