  1. What IP address do you guys get when you ping rtt.hak5.org. I seem to be getting 127.0.0.1 Anyone know why?
  2. I think it may just be the traffic on youtube becasue i can watch the video perfectly now. Thanks for the help
  3. It may be the high connection to youtube, because i couldn't watch one video this morning but now i can. One of the videos i can't watch atm is: http://youtube.com/watch?v=a0GtUnn2EMM
  4. I am been having some trouble with youtube for the last few weeks. I know quite a lot about computers but can not figure this out. When i try and watch a youtube video it either works or just stays on the loading screen. If i try and watch one of those videos that are not working though another website (embedded) it says that the video is no longer available (but it is as other people watched it and commented on it). In the bottom left of my screen it says (well on this occasion): Waiting for dal-v94.dal.youtube.com... I am using the latest firefox so that is not the problem. I have also go the latest flash version. It seems (mostly) the the older videos are not working and the newer ones are. I can almost always watch the featured videos off the youtube homepage. I have also tried downloading the videos in a couple of ways but i just get an error message I am not having any trouble with any of the other video services like metacafe, Only youtube. Thanks in advance.
  5. I was wondering why it dosn't work. Is it because acid2 and acid3 test different aspects of the browser or something?
  6. Hi i just found out a few days ago that the acid3 test has gotton 100/100, with the Opera browser: http://labs.opera.com/news/2008/03/28/ Downloaded it and it worked fine, i then tried the acid2 test just for fun, but didn't get what i expected. IT FAILED THE ACID2 TEST! Why can this browser do the acid3 test fine but not the acid2 test?
  7. That's such a noobie thing to say. Almost every OS problem regardless of platform can be fixed without a reinstall. Talk about using a sledge hammer when a screwdriver will do. Its not n00bish. I know I can repair windows with enough tinkering. However, I work in IT, and i've come to realize that getting something working again in the quickest way possible is usually more efficient and more productive. I've also used my entire life's quota of pissing about with broken Windows installs sometime back in the 90's. The only thing thats important about your PC is the data contained on it. In this case, and the many similar posts i've answered over the last 3 years here, we are dealing with a windows install that has probally not been right for some time. Starting with a clean slate and learning why installing every bit of random shite the Internet throws at you is A Bad Idea is probally a good start here. Time is money, data is money, your crapped out install of windows is disposable. I agree with you and the clean reinstall, but i do not download every single piece of shit off the internet, I think that i know quite a lot about computers and i only download of websites i can trust and i usually do a virus scan once every couple of days. My desktop says otherwise but that because im way too lazy to clean it up.
  8. no that was my fault, i let it update everyday but i didn't casue i couldn't be bothered just clicked cancel Ok id do that but its working for now :S. Really weird, if it keeps stuffing up again i will reinstall windows.
  9. Ok i have uploaded a screenshot to photobucket (desktop is bloody mess, so don't have a heart attack when you click on it lol) http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g173/sim...les/desktop.jpg I am also going to list all of the things that are starting on startup as im pretty sure its one of them. I tried to shutdown and it didn't (nvm about that) and i went into task manager started ending tasks for fun (don't ask lol), logged off without shutting down then logged back in and no errors until i actually had to restart. The things starting on startup are: IMJMIG TINTSETP TINTSEPT RTHCPL ALCMTR CPF jusched Reader_sl KHALMNPR mmtask AAWTray NvCpl nwiz NvMcTray avgcc QTTask LWEMon SSBkgdupdate ISUSPM issch NeroCheck ctfmon msnmsgr nTuneCmd Logitech SetPoint Mointer Apache Servers Run Google Web Accelerator AND THE ONES NOT TICKED ARE: AAWTray Conrade fdm iTunesHelper msnmsgr Steam gnotify That is everything and i hope i typed them all correctly lol. I would prefrebly not reinstall windows. Everyone is telling me it is a windows problem so couldn't i do a check of the files with the windows cd? Thanks for helping
  10. Ok, my problem is whenever i start up i get onto the desktop and it pops up: "Windows Explorer has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvienience" I have tried clicking all the options, Explorer ends all iconds dissapear, it starts up again and the error pops up again. A short time after that error pops up if i don't do anything and just drag it away, another error pops up: Explorer. EXE - Application Errer The instruction at "0x7e422cc5" referenced memory at "0x0350d400". The memory could not be "read" the numbers that are there change everytime (im pretty sure), i have also tried every option here but it keeps popping up. These errors pop up as it is trying to load the icons on the desktop and most of them do not load. I have looked everywhere on google, and a lot of people have this problem but i cant seem to find a solution, I HAVE TRIED REPLACING RAM, that does not work. One last thing, our router broke so we replaced it and just after we replaces it this error did not pop up :-? If someone could help me it would be much appreciated. Thanks
