So, Adobe Flash insists that i update. I do. Then I have to restart, which I didn't want to do right that second, so now any site with flash didn't work. I finally restart, and now I still have to download some other plugin. WTF? THIS is why I don't update shit. It's more trouble than it's worth.

A quick google suggests that FileMerlin has a trial version. (Don't know how good a program FileMerlin is, or whether the particular features you would need are disabled in the free download.) FileMelin does include WordStar translation.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Vortex, what prompted the request to update Adobe Flash? I've heard about some malware exploits using that. A quick google turns up: [link] and [link]
ISTR that the exploit prompts you to install v9 of Flash. My current version is 10,0,12,36
You can check your installed version here: [link]

It wasn't an email, it was a pop up update, so i thought it was legit.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Hey. New board.
Hi Hive.
I'm playing around, yet again, with creating a web page, and have run into a basic CSS problem that I just can't solve.
I want the top of my page to have some title text and a subtitle to the left, with a picture to the right. The picture may change size based on other inputs, but i always want the title text to be aligned with the bottom of the picture. For some reason, i can't figure out how to make this work - honestly, I'm still wrapping my head around divs and classes and boxes and so forth, and get myself confused a lot. Float Right seems to make it hard to align text with the bottom of the picture.
What I want is this:
________________
| |
| Picture |
| |
TITLE TEXT | |
subtitle text ----------------
All other stuff goes down here.
Any help?
