Recent Mozilla convert
Date: 03/20/05
(Mozilla) Keywords: yahoo
(x-posted to firefoxusers)
I am still unfamiliar with a lot of Mozilla Firefox's features, but was wondering a few things.
First off, for long-time users, or those at least who have been using longer than me: what is different about Firefox than, say, Mozilla Suite, or Netscape? What makes it your favorite, and what makes it stand out above all the others? I have Netscape's latest build, but not Suite. So far the only differences I can tell are probably in the themes and extensions, and the download manager is sooooo fast and easy to use. Those things are what make Firefox my favorite, and I can't wait to work even more with it. However, I have not tried really working with Netscape or even installing Suite.
Secondly: I cannot play launch (yahoo music) even though I downloaded what it said to. I know that Mozilla and yahoo have had some issues, but I did not know exactly what they were. Is there a way around this, or have I perhaps just done something wrong?

I need an e-commerce site
Date: 03/23/05
(WebDesign) Keywords: web, yahoo, ebay
If you are an amateur or pro graphic designer or know someone who wants to make a few extra bucks I got an easy job.. And yeah I'll be paying real money. I've never done an e-commerce site and I need one. Nothing too fancy, my brother from another mother Andrew (check out his work he's amazing) is taking care of the flash intro but I need the basic website. It's going to be for selling fashion, electronics, video games, etc. I will need to be able to constantly upload new images and change the text as I get new items in. We need to do sales via papal(for starters) and have a link to my Ebay auctions. In terms of style I want it to be futurstic/cyber/goth/splatterpunk blade runner HR Geiger you get the idea. But not tacky. Subtle. The shit I'm going to be selling I want to present as cutting edge and the site should reflect that. So if your interested hit me at mrfresh3030@hotmail.com or soulseller76@yahoo.com with a brief idea for your layout, some links to other sites you've done, and your $$$ terms. Peace & love.

hello
Date: 03/24/05
(HTML Help) Keywords: html, web, yahoo
I have a question.
On LJ, when I want a link to a separate site, I use <_a href_>. I can call it whatever I want, etc.
Does anyone know if I can do this or how I can do this in an email, ie, in my signature. I'd like my sig to go to a website that is long and unwieldy, so I want to rename it.
I use Mail on macintosh os 10.2.8 and I also use yahoo. I have them set up to recieve html, rather than plain text, if that matters.
Thanks in advance.
JT

about:blank/trojan horse attached to se.dll
Date: 04/10/05
(Computer Help) Keywords: virus, yahoo
The other day I reformated my computer. I got a professional to do it, because last time I did it, I pretty much destroyed it. The main reason was because a trojan horse virus became attached to the file, C:\Windows\TEMP\SE.DLL. From what I get from it, that seems to be a file that starts up programs, like internet explorer, or even opening folders. The other day, these viruses got back on my computer. I have AVG Virus Scanner, and whenever that file error pops up about C:\Windows\TEMP\SE.DLL, it says that there was a virus detected. It asks if I could heal it, or put it in the vault, but it says before I do that, that it could make my system stop working properly.
I tried using system restore to fix my computer, but it seems like nothing happened. I have Windows ME, that's what he put on it. I heard it wasn't too good, but the same thing happened with my Windows 98. Also, my computer is not good enough or able to have Windows XP, so that can't be done.
What I need to do, is how can I fix this without having to reformat the computer, again. I don't think he'll charge me this time around, but I really want another fix. Another annoying problem is everytime I go into hotmail, and different other sites like yahoo, it automatically switches to about:blank. It's also stuck in my homepage thing in tool and options. Everytime I try to take it out, it just puts it back in. How can I get rid of this about:blank page?
And one more question. This is the same trojan horse virus that was attached to my computer the last time. Does it have anything to do with my IP address maybe. Please help!

deleting history
Date: 04/12/05
(Computer Help) Keywords: yahoo, google
You know when you type in google.com to search for something? And in the text box, sometimes a list drops down showing all of the other things you've typed in. How do I get rid of this?
Another example is when you put in your e-mail address at yahoo.com to sign in. It remembers it (not the password), but I don't want it to remember my e-mail address anyway (@_@;
On Internet Explorer, I went to Tools, Internet Options, and Clear History but it doesn't do it.

How to prevent robots (Google Bot, MSNBot, Yahoo Slurp! etc.) from displaying cached pages of your site
Date: 04/12/05
(Java Web) Keywords: web, yahoo, google
Site Owners often detest the fact that google caches an old copy of their site and displays it on searches which brings up the site pages.
A simple way to prevent robots (including Google, Yahoo etc.) from caching your site contents is to include the following within the head section of your web page.

Yahoo Mail and Mozilla
Date: 04/15/05
(Computer Help) Keywords: yahoo
Yahoo is being un bag de douche and my password isn't working . . . and neither are the new passwords I got from 'em. I just need to make sure I don't get signed out of Y!M if I want to talk to people on there. But, mail and groups are out of the question because I have to sign in for 'em. I contacted Yahoo and they should get back to me soon, I hope. It supposed to take up to 24 hours for new passwords to take effect, but that still doesn't explain why my old one wasn't working when I had just used it 30-ish minutes ago. ARGH. Is anyone else having this problem? I changed my address on here to my Hotmail (aka junkmail) address so I can still get comments and stuff from people. GRRRRRRRRRRRRR. (this was x-posted from my journal)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Also, why is it that I have trouble getting plug-ins to work on Mozilla Firefox? I have to use IE for some sites and I hate it. :o/
edit: none of my Yahoo user ids' passwords are working!

Yahoo! email issue...
Date: 04/21/05
(Computer Geeks) Keywords: spyware, yahoo
Hello fellow geeks.
When I go to reply to an email on my home computer it comes up (and stays) like this......
I wait for it to fully load with the original message but nothing actually happens. I also cannot attach anything because the button is light shaded yet I don't seem to have this problem on other computers and I can use my Hotmail on here perfectly fine so it must be something on here conflicting with the Yahoo! email setup.
I don't recall disabling attachment support in IE.
Anyone wonder what might be wrong?
I'm gonna run some scans on it soon to see if maybe there is a spyware program or something conflicting with it. Was just checking to see if any of you's recognised the problem.
Cheers,
-- Tom
