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!
And question: this is a LastPass generated password (very long, very random) that's not used on any other site. Worth changing anyway just to be safe?
If you're using LastPass, any reason not to? I figure you might not want to change it if you were trying to remember it in your head, but if you use LastPass anyway...
Actually I figured out it was just Waze trying to reauthorize itself. Which is weird because Waze is owned by Google and should already have my password!
What does this mean when I am trying to get to a website:
Http/1.1 Service Unavailable
I have been sent links to many wigs I need to buy at www.thewigcompany.com, and I cannot get there!
It's an error on their website. Check back later and see if it's back up.
Thanks! I thought so, but I was also panicking since I really have to order these!
I'm trying to install adblocker software on my home computer running Win 7 with IE 11. I've tried Ad-Aware and a couple of others, and they're not showing up in IE. Is there a better adblocker plug-in I can try?
Honestly, I'd move to another browser and then install an adblocker. IE is notorious for not playing well with that kind of stuff.
Godsdammit, iPad, why are you now not only dropping song files but also stuff from my iBooks?

An interesting note. Not sure if it's a fluke, accident, or what. But it seems when listening to Pandora on my FireTV, there are no commercials. I've been listening all day, and not a one. If I stream from the website on a computer, or from the iPad app, a fair amount of commercials. But none from the FireTV. Anyone else notice this? Not complaining. Just thought I'd share.
Adobe’s Digital Editions e-book and PDF reader is spying on you.
Adobe is gathering data on the ebooks that have been opened, which pages were read, and in what order. All of this data, including the title, publisher, and other metadata for the book is being sent to Adobe’s server in clear text.
Adobe isn’t just tracking what users are doing in DE4; this app was also scanning my computer, gathering the metadata from all of the ebooks sitting on my hard disk, and uploading that data to Adobe’s servers.
