You can reset the password if you boot the machine from the OS X system disk.

ND beat me to the answer I was going to give.

Is there some absurdly simple way to change the default bookmark folder into which new bookmarks are, err, foldered? In Firefox?

it randomly just decides not to load pages.

Ok, I'm almost afraid to respond, since I'm so very not techy, but in the hopes that a "from the mouths of babes" kind of think might help, I've found that Firefox sometimes decided that links aren't safe. Usually it gives me a bar across right below the tabs telling me so, like when it blocks popups. If I right click on the bar, I can choose to turn the links back on. I'm not sure why this happens some times and not others, or why the bar seems to be invisibile until the point where I'm tearing my hair out. Perhaps something can be done with Preferences?

That happens (although I seem to have lost the bar on my Firefox 1.5 install at home), and the adblock extension will disable links as well.

Not particularly simple, but not super difficult, either: [link]

Well, I wasn't using a theme, and I did upgrade to 2.0.0.1, and it's unfortunately still happening.

You could use Opera if Firefox is not running very well. I like Firefox better, but I can't think of a good reason why. Opera is a really good browser.

I think that iTunes for Windows has a good shot of running on Kubuntu. I don't use iTunes, so I don't know by personal experience.

Hey Gud (or anyone else) - In a car, where would the negative terminal battery cable typically attach to? The engine block? The frame?

I think I might have to jack the car up in order to attach a new cable. (This is for my '85 LTD.)

The frame.

I vote frame, too.

I used opera for about three years before Firefox came out and was stable enough that I was willing to look at switching. Now that I've gone the way of extensions, I don't know if I'd go back--a big factor of the switch was how much of my resources Opera commanded, but really, the way I use it, Firefox is just as bad about it now.

No, though I know what you're talking about--if it was that and not, as I think it might be, an errant registry value, I'd be able to load buffistas. Or google. It's getting nothing at all, after it had been loading everything fine.

I was thinking, Gud, of double-booting, and hanging on to Windows mostly for iTunes. I haven't seen anything to suggest that iTunes would run, though if it did, it would be awesome.
