Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
I don't know about people who actively want to be hotlinked (I've also never encountered people who actively want to share their networks either, but I don't dispute their existence). There are sites who certainly possess the knowhow to prevent it and don't, and I can only assume it's not a deal for them.
But it doesn't make hotlinking not rude, and I think the same for piggybacking on wireless.
I downloaded an album, and now I can't get iTunes to recognize it -- any ideas? The songs are each apparently mp3s, but nothing I've tried has worked -- importing the folder into iTunes, adding each file individually into iTunes, just opening the folder and double-clicking on a song, nothing! Weird, right? Is there any way to tell if they aren't actually mp3s or something?

When I was at school, I did this. I'd do it here, too, except it's New York City - there are 25 wireless networks within range of my card, which implies even more than that number of people with laptops. If it were just a few, I'd happily leave it open (probably with limited access - web only - for those not me).
My wireless network is open, and I don't mind if people share it. (They don't, as far as I can tell -- I can see about as many other networks as there are adjoining apartments to mine, so everyone seems to be using their own.)
Does anyone around who knows about Photoshop elements? For the past week or so, all of the images I open are locked, so that I can't add text or anything like that. This didn't used to happen. I've checked all of the preferences, but can't figure out how to change it.
Lee, I use Elements, but I've never had that happen to me. Sorry!
Anyone know how to do a screen grab in Windown 2000? The MS knowledgebase is being unhelpful.
Control-Print Screen will copy the screen to the clipboard.

Could it maybe be that the files are read-only? That's what it sounds like.
Nope. I tried to open up images that I had previously used sucessfully to make icons, but that are now locked.
