Cool, I'll definately try that!

It's time I got a new PC anyway... My current one:

AMD Athlon 600Mhz, 128 MB RAM, 27GB, 32 MB TNT2 Nvidia graphics card

heh...you won't have any trouble running WinXP

also - 'SpyBot - Search & Destroy' is a good program for spyware/adware

Jonbo298 · 03-09-2005, 04:33 PM

As I said above

Ad-Aware SE and Spybot are 2 good programs

My old PC is Intel III 498Mhz, 128MB RAM, 8GB, Rage graphics card and it's still kicking...though kicking very slowly. I had to resurrect it countless times. But your comp can't run XP? Mine is worse that yours and it had XP Pro since it was released. It gave new life to my dusty piece o' crap.

IE works fine for me, and the only reason it lets in Adware and Spyware is because you have programs that run the ads. It doesn't work with Firefox because it uses a different algorithm then IE.

I used to get popups all the time from programs like WeatherBug/PrecisionTime/Kazaa but once all that is removed, or you pay for them.... IE runs fine with no popups or nothing, at least for me I got NOTHING popping up on IE... and right now I still believe IE is the best browser to use until Mozilla releases a much better Firefox because it still has bugs.

Maybe when they release Firefox 2.0

Yay... I ran Spybot - Search and Destroy and it seems to have cleared some crap... IE now opens, and without much delay either! WOOOO!

Thanks guys! + rep for you all... Or do we handle out doubloons now?

Don't forget to run Ad-Aware SE.

I'd like doubloons if you don't mind.
