This is NOT an Access question....
I am trying to use limewire (windows something-- I don't know how to find out.
Limewire says that I am either not connected to the internet or there is a firewall bloacking me.
I checked the firewall, and limewire is listed as an exception.
I turned the firewall off
I still cannot connect through limewire.
I am clearly connected to the internet, as I am typing this
My cow-orker is using limewire Right Now, AIFG, with the same computer, network connection, etc.
Any ideas?
Do I need to change the port? How would I know what to change it to?

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.
Limewire is EVIL. EEEEEEEEVIL. Bad, spyware laden piece of crap.
But you can try looking at [link] to see if they have anything on it.

Gmail apparently open to everyone now.
I can't see the supposed "Sign up for Gmail!" thingy on the front page, but that might be because Google thinks I'm in the UK. (And my Gmail account still says "Gmail Beta" in the logo, but maybe they just haven't gotten around to changing that yet?)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Looks like new GMail accounts are only available for people with cell phones that can receive a text message: [link]
"Just go to gmail.com." From there, you can get an invitation code sent to your mobile phone, and with this code, you can create a Gmail account

And you have to be a US resident.
But the invitations still work, and those work anywhere, sans cell. (And everyone with a Gmail account currently has 50, so...)

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
domain reg question -- is it possible to register a domain name to an organization rather than a person? I'm having to hunt down a registrant who hasn't been involved in the group for the last 5 years in order to move my group's site to a new host, and I'd love it if 5 years from now when I've burned out and moved on, a note on board letterhead will do the trick for the next webmaster so they don't have to find someone who still remembers where to hunt me down....
(oh, yeah, and the org is a duly registered 501 c 3 yadda yadda, which I suspect could make a difference)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Tech support question -- I'm looking at my Add/Remove Programs panel, and there's a bunch of Java stuff on there that looks repetitive. Do I need all of these?
