Not really, just the browser stuff. I am pretty sure they don't go over everything with a fine toothed comb, but I don't want it to jump out at them that HEY, this lady spends all day somewhere called Buffistas!

Ha - love it.
Microsoft Offering Free Domain Name and Hosting for One Year
Microsoft Office Live Small Business is a web hosting service that gives you a domain name (any available .com, .net, .org, or .info), email, business management tools, collaboration tools, and more, for a surprising price tag: $0.
Despite the Small Business moniker, the service doesn't appear to be limited only to businesses—meaning you could probably use the service as a personal site (as CNET suggests). Check in with the Microsoft Office Live Small Business video tour for a closer look at what you can expect if you decide to sign up. The service is free for one year, after which you'll need to pony up a still-reasonable $15/year.
The onion video button just kinda spins. Does not play for me. Disabling flashblock does not help. Firefox 3.06. Works fine on IE.
OK, upgraded by flash player. I had ten, but apparently needed 10.something

hilarious and oh so true!
Is anyone having problems with Gmail? Several times a day over the last month I've been getting an "unresponsive script" error, and I have to log out and back in, and sometimes even restart.
I have a PC running Windows XP, and use the latest update of Firefox.
I'm pretty sure the "unresponsive script" message results from Firefox deciding that some Javascript has been running for a long time. i.e. the script may still be running; it's just taking a long time. Do you have the option of allowing it to continue? If so, that's what it is. It might just be that you have a slow computer, or it might be that Javascript is taking a long time (for whatever reason) to finish downloading all your mail or something.
Well, the computer is getting long in the tooth. And low on disk space. I think I found something in the Gmail discussion groups, too.
Thanks, tommy!
Does anyone have any experience with/fondness for/hatred of Ubuntu? I'll be inheriting my dad's laptop, and he currently has Vista on it. This seems like a golden opportunity to dip my toes into Linux. But I'm a little confused by the various distributions.
