I'm going to see to Wesley, see if he's still whimpering.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Which Clié do you have? How long have you had it?

N760C. Still going strong. I bought it in February 2002--I remember waiting until after Christmas for the price drop.

Why am I barrelling through Cliés?

I dunno. Are you as hard on them as you are on your cell phone? Wait, that was a Sony too, wasn't it? Maybe it is a you vs. Sony thing.

WHO ARE YOU WORKING FOR????

Heh. Not working for Sony, at any rate.

...Zodiac...gonna dump me like Sony did?

Probably. I still haven't found anyone who has actually used or bought a Zodiac, which speaks poorly for their market share. "Let me do the math here--nothin' into nothin', carry the...."

ita,

I have a Palm Zire 71 for nearly 2 years now. I love it to death. It has a camera on it and I can use it to play MP3s (only a small number though).

I've run into a problem in Foxfire that is driving me crazy. (OK, I know, more like putt than a drive.) I switched to the new Foxit pdf reader; I like the smaller footprint . OK - I made it the default for opening pdf files in my browser. But the problem is the adobe plugin is still there, and when I disable it, it gets re-enabled after a few sessions. Is there any way to remove a plugin from firefox, as opposed to disabling it?

Is this how you disabled it?

Tool-->Options
click Downloads
In the lower right corner, click "Plug-Ins"
Un-check the file-type association.

Yes clicked downloads, Clicked plug ins. Unchecked the "enable" check box in the rightmost column. And it is fine - until it is mysteriously turned on again.

Okay, that means I am starting from the same place. Good. Off to explore....

What do you see in your C:\\Program Files\\Mozilla Firefox\\plugins folder?

This should do it:

Then re-install Foxit, if necessary.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

Okay, so I removed some files with Spybot, and started getting the following error message at startup:

Runner Error

Could not load the target dll ("C:\Program Files\BackWeb\BackWeb Client\6.23.66\Porgram\BackWeb.dll", error code 126

I tried restoring the files in question, but I'm still getting the message. It doesn't seem to be doing any harm, but having to click past it every time I turn on the computer is getting old. Any suggestions?

What version of Windows are you running? Are you familiar with msconfig?
