WHENUSEARCH.COM
- a pain in the butt!!
One day when I was searching for airline prices, suddenly a strip
appeared at the bottom of the screen, it was about 1 cm wide and
was just above the icon bar. It was advertising 1000's of cheap
offers. It was a devil of a job to shift and here is the sequence
of things I did:
1 Found I could condense it to about 2" at one side, but
only with flashing messages.
2. RH mouse button no effect.
3. Start >programs> a one line applicable to the line>
no effect.
4. Cleared our recent history and cookies - still
there
5 Checked download files> the obvious one came with a warning
that it must be a shared file.
6. Managed to locate their website and eventually located an uninstall
procedure.
7. Uninstall procedure instructed to go to the control panel and
locate install/uninstall, and then to highlight one file and uninstall.
File not located
8 Finally went into start> search>look for www.whenusearch.com
a number of files appeared
9. Searching through these eventually found the uninstall file
and hey presto, finally deleting all
of them Success at last!!!
Philips
Launches World's Fastest DVD Burner
Holland (Reuters) - Philips Electronics has launched the world's
first 16-speed DVD writer, which can burn a disc in less than
six minutes, the Dutch group has said.
U.S. computer maker Dell will be the first customer for the new
DVD burner, sources familiar with the Philips activity told Reuters.
Philips and Dell have a partnership to supply each other with
products.
Philips said it planned to produce 600,000 of the devices every
month.
Computer makers will pay between 80 and 90 euros ($97-$109) per
DVD writer when buying in large quantities, while consumers will
have to pay around 180 euros.
The product, which has two layers that take the maximum storage
capacity up to 8.5 gigabytes or four hours of DVD quality video,
will be a mainstream feature in personal computers by the end
of 2004, Philips said.
Until now, eight-speed burners were at the top of the range.
DVDs were designed to store film and video. With the advent of
digital video cameras and still cameras, consumers are increasingly
interested in editing their videos on a personal computer, then
burning them on a DVD for storage or for sending to other people.
Philips' optical storage unit, which was also the first with an
eight-speed DVD burner last September, returned to profitability
in 2003 after heavy losses as a result of Asian competition. Reuters/VNU
