Firefox by
[email protected]
I just spent a week ridding my Dell 8300 from spyware and assorted
Trojans. Anyone have Firefox? Opinions? Can you run both Firefox AND
IE? How would you set the default? How does the email client work?
Thanks.
Ron

Dell's Sorry History of Microphone/Soundcard Issue by
Attorney General
Instead of putting the microphone in your mouth you should shove it up your
ass. It will not solve your problem but it will clog up your ass so no more
**** like this will leak out.

Laptops, wait for Intel Centrino Core Duo? by
Kevin K. Fosler
Does anyone know when these new laptops may come out? From what I've
read so far, the chips are going to be priced about the same as the
current Pentium-M chips.
I was about to buy a laptop but now it seems to make sense to wait.

Tight Screws by
Ron Hardin
A (apparently) motherboard died in my Vostro 1500.
The chat guy asks me to remote optical drive, HD
and RAM and try powering it on.
I got the optical drive out.
I got two screws of the HD out. They were tight,
and released with a loud ``crack'' when they
started turning. Do they...

upgrading bios for WinXP SP2 install by
Jeff Gillan
Hi group,
Dell recommends flashing your bios to make sure you have the latest one, if
you install XP SP2.
Is that really necessary? I've heard nothing but horror stories about
flashing bios, and since I've already upgraded to SP2, I'm not having any
noticable problems.
Do I need to upgrade my...

PC came with a newer MS OS and I would use the OEM OS disc to upgrade the
OS on the older machine with no problem, example: Last time I bought a new
Dell with XP and used the OEM XP disc to install XP over Win98 on my...

Firefox Wow! by
Pat Conover[_2_]
I finally got sick enough of IE8 to try Firefox and all I can say is WOW!
It's like driving a Ferrari compared to a Kia. You folks always recommended
it, but I never knew it was that much faster. I use IE8 because a lot of my
business sites only use it and I thought I was pretty much stuck...

Hi
I have a Dell Dimension 8300 on which I want to improve the cooling. I want
