Naija peeps and their obssesion with obama*shakes his head*. Obama dis,Obama dat. Every topic on NL somehow has to be connected to OBAMA. Na wa oo.

We're all happy for obama's victory has an american first black president. I agreed with the above statement which have highlighted in bold,because nowadays is like when prople want to talk they use obama, not that I'm jealous about obama or anything like that. is a wonderful man which i really

admire and have lots of resect for. looking at what he achieve defintely we have the cause to talk and celebrate him but we need to do moderately . you

rarely see a person that uses gordon brown or jamie oliver as an example.one of the problem we have is when someone did or doing good we tend to

focus too much on that particular person and not wideing our territory. I hope I'm communicating ? remember freedom of speech, so please talk to me

like i will talk to you with due respect

@michael 13 seems to me you recently used anti virus sw to scan your system or have norton installed that might have caused this behaviour

take it is XP or Vista yeah ? I"ll go for xp because of it's popularity. click start look for run copy and paste this into the box, have just tried it on my xp machine does work, not sure of vista but worth trying


REG add HKCUSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionPol iciesSystem /v DisableTaskMgr /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f

then press enter all you see is a flash black box what that does is its quickly amends the registry without having to do it maunally which can be frustating. after that hold down ctl+alt+del should be alright

An active X control or pop up is a yellow pop up bar at the top of your page, that allows you to install any software such as yahoo messenger,or any other type of applications. without it installation wont be possible That my simple definition of active x and hope it helps.

Don't even bother knowing the "TRUE" character of a lady because you can't know.

This is how i described ladies

"They act before thinking" and then regrets later.

So, how can you know her character if she keeps acting new series for you. Just love her for who she is and don't forget to understand her misgivings.

My Elder brother is getting married on the 12th and this was the advice he got from a friend who said his father gave him 7 DUCKS to take care of. He was adviced to keep the ducks in his sitting rooms and take care of them. It sounded crazy but his (my brother's friend) Dad said if he couldn't take care of the Ducks, then he was not ready to get married. He agreed and took the ducks home, kept them in his living room. Barely had he settled down that they began messing (passing faeces) up and down. He kept on cleaning and cleaning their shit. He continue and tried that for two additional days (making three days). On the morning of the forth day, he carried the ducks and returned them to his father with an angry and frustrated look.

The old man laughed and said, my son, you are ready for marriage and he replied, ready for what? I can't stand these ducks messing up my house every second. My wife to be ran away, she complained that the ducks keep passing faeces every second even as she was cleaning up one mess, another mess is added. Finally, she said, it is either me or the ducks.

Finally, his dad said, you have passed the test. If you can stay with these ducks messing up your house, then you can stay with a woman because they behave like ducks. They keep messing up even when you just cleared one mess.

So poster, just forget about knowing the character of woman because they are unpredicatable, just prepare to clear their mess

wow ! this brilliant.

@simbobo just incase you have no joy from the previous diagnostics. take it you"re using yahoo messenger version 9

If you don't install the 9.0 messenger correctly, it will not work.

It has to beRun as the Administrator. I think if you Right click on the downloaded .exe after you download it, you will be able to Run as Administrator. If that is all too confusing you can

Do this

Click on Start Button/ Settings/ Control Panel/ Add or Remove Programs.

DUMP anything that says Yahoo Messenger (toolbar, address book etc etc etc) they will be listed at the bottom of that window if there are any), and go to this website

http://www.oldversion.com

Scroll down (at the bottom of the page on the Left is Yahoo Messenger). Versions 3-8 are there to choose from. I PERSONALLY SUGGEST 7.0.


you will NOT lose any Contacts from a previous version you ran, they are all saved on Yahoos Sever and will transfer to whatever version you install.

@Embarrassed Busayo i no how 2 open an icon,but d yahoo messenger's is not giving out anytin. I'm running on battery would hv re-intalled it now.

not able to download a programme on firefox is quite common, this to do with the designs of firefox misleading some user's

have experienced this before and trust me i nearly burst into tears. firefox just wont give me an option to open the application, unlike internet explorer. to cut the long story short,try this.

download the programme and make note of where you"re saving it to e.g. desktop for easy retrieval. after you save it click ok if I'm correct if you look at the clock area you should have a pop up saying download complete

after that there should be a square box at top of your page with green bar running across indicating how is progressing. right click on it and click open and follow the instruction to install the messenger. should be fine, if not then try IE. sorry if wordings are too

long, this what i do at my work place when providing email support, I'm use to it. Good luck !

Can someone help me out with:

How can I share 3 of my systems together.

Pls, I need the steps involved.

Good questions but that isnt telling me anything. what make and operating system are they e.g. Hp, vista. what are you trying to do be specific e.g. networking so you can share files or wireless printing

@layinx just ignore it. happy birthday to mummy anyway

@curtez
I bought it some time ago,used,and i have not formatted it since i bought it.It runs on winndows vista,and like i heard,getting most of the drivers for the laptop (HP Pavilion dv6000[dv6220BR]) could be difficult. Its ram was 512mb now 480mb,speed 1.7mhz. your diagnosis needed pls

@deji2009
will do as u suggested. I have AVAST anti virus installed,would i still need NORTON? I use Firefox,Opera and IE,firefox freezes up most times so i had to settle with opera.I use IE too,but both browsers @ same time hangs the system
your diagnosis

you need a minimum of 2GB or more to run windows vista

Alikote, you have to be very careful. things are not that rosy or sweet as fellow Nigerians here paint it to you guys back home and like you see on TV. At this moment I will advise you to remain in your job and only come to further your studies here when you are sure that if you decide to go back home there is something waiting for you

precisely

@miz4oxley just a bit of curiosity. are you in the UK at the moment or still in nigeria ?

@miz4oxley to get a menial job in the Uk, you can look in your local newspapers, internet and register with agencies just like

someone has said. but you need no more than 15 hours a week(part-time) so it wont affect your studies.

@TOPE2000! sorry for replying late was just busy @ computer section. oh yes, you dont know me from anyway neither do i, my Conscience just tells me to say hello

Perhaps Simbob has used it to browse somewhere else where they configured proxy for her

maybe, I'm with you.

@TOPE2000! I'm Deji Sunday just say hi. how you doing ?

but that's sort of strange; firefox doesn't enable proxy by default

is weired isnt it ? by default firefox is set to no proxy didnt know that myself just had a look on my vista which has firefox on

@simbobo, this will solve the problem proxy server is refusing connection https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/6709

try that and follow on screen instruction just incase that doesnt work it should do but never can tell then try doing it manually


Step 1Click the "Tools" tab in Firefox which will display a drop-down menu. Click "Options" from the menu.

Step 2 An Option Dialogue Box will appear. Select the "Advanced" tab.

Step 3 On the "Advanced" screen, click the "Network" tab, and then the "Settings" tab.

Step 4Select the option that says "No Proxy."

Step 5Click "OK," then click "OK" again on the next screen. You have now disabled the proxy settings. Good Luck

@Simbobo if you just bear with me please. I'm on my IE on my xp just need to switch on my laptop which has firefox, stay tune

@poster No girl will want to live with a poor guy cos a girl has got to have her favorite things

I dont understand what you mean by the word favorite things. do you mean for a woman to be picky ?

I am tired of guys complaining that a girl don't like them cos they broke.
No girl will want to live with a poor guy cos a girl has got to have her favorite things. don't take this personal.

@playah I'm not sure if this also happen in the diaspora.

@ poster
i dont mind a woman not wanting to be with someone who is broke but if i am not broke i will ask what you your self the girl who likes her "fav things" what are you bringing to the table?
can you take me out? can you buy me a gift that is worth having? (which is something you would want) can you say baby dont worry i'll pick up the check? can you say i have a job that pays me well? can you say i bought you this shirt because i think you would look great in it?

what can you offer someone who is not broke besides the obvious which gets old, and which is why men have to move on because there is noting beyong you looking good. So i ask you what can you offer?HuhHuh


p.s not posting with agression just wondering

couldnt agree more, you"re abosolutely right.

@chux76 Most people know that the more programs you have running on your computer at once, the more likely it is that your computer will either run slowly or even crash. What most people don't know is that every time you boot your computer a whole mess of "hidden" programs load in the background. Some of these hidden programs are essential, but most aren't. Turning off some of these hidden programs can significantly increase your computer's performance and reliability.

Click on the Vista start icon in the bottom left corner of your screen.

Type MSCONFIG in the search box and then either press enter on your keyboard or double-click on the MSCONFIG program that appears in the search results. enter your password if prompted then click continue

Once you have successfully passed through Microsoft's User Account Control roadblock, Vista will launch Microsoft's System Configuration Utility. Click on the Startup tab

This takes you to a page with a list of "startup items." Startup items are programs that are automatically loaded every time you turn on your computer. Some startup programs are absolutely necessary, others are simply a waste of RAM, untick the all programme except your virus protection. click apply and ok and follow on screen instructions
