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 just discovered the strangest thing on my PC. I use Eudora for email and noticed that there was a folder called "Celina Goldsmith". I have no idea who this person is and certainly never created such a folder. It appears as though it was created three months ago. After Googling the name, and not finding much of interest (it's been used as the name of a spam sender, but you can say that about everybody), I figured I'd delete the folder. When I did this, Eudora warned me that there was a filter associated with the mailbox! The filter transfers all incoming mail from "Qfort@demconvention.com" into that folder. Googling that email address produced zilch.
What on earth could have caused this? A virus without a point (the folder has always been empty)? The spam program, Spamnix, had a really weird hiccup? What?
Huh. I know damn well you are way past the level of expertise where your computer could using spare cpu cycles to send spam without your knowing it.
First post from new Crackberry! And am already totally lost. Anyone have a Curve and are willing to answer some probably stupid questions?
I'm willing. I am totally in love with my Curve.
What would you like to know? Other than that it's the best BlackBerry ever, or at least until the touchscreen (think iPhone) one comes out....
unusual question here for y'all. I tried a different cassette adapter for the car (seems I had several of them around). The latest one SOUNDS great, but it keeps ejecting, probably due to no gears that turn, and the deck thinks it's a jammed tape. But it's the only of the 3 that I have that actually SOUNDS good, the others sound as bad as the FM transmitter. Any thoughts that won't damage the car cassette deck? It's a long shot, but the hive mind is brilliant, so why not ask, right?
More unusual question:
My cat just walk across my keyboard, and now my browser is on the fullscreen-- I am missing the toolbars across the top. How can I get it back?

does your stereo automatically switch the tape to the other side? If so, turn off that option, and that might solve your problem.
This month is
killing
me. Snapped the earpiece off of my wireless headset for my cellphone. I had a Jawbone, and it worked passably well (not the magic they predicted, but definitely better than the technology that had gone before). Any recommendations in a similar form factor Bluetooth headset with noise reduction for about $80?
