Some days ago I installed Folder Lock in my computer then I uninstalled it but the item "Lock file with Folder Lock" still remains in the right click menu.
How can it be removed?
I was messing around with sendmail in Rails a year ago and have had this message popping up in the terminal after every command ever since:
You have new mail in /var/mail/Lance
How do I properly get rid of that so the message goes away? I ever use any of that functionality and don't have mail on my computer. There's one file in /var/mail called lance, and it's huge. Can I just remove it?
Some years ago, I've heard people saying that the OSX and Linux were better than Windows, I also remember of reading something that said the Solaris operating system didn't fragment their files and that the Linux file system was almost in the same step but none of these claims seemed to have basis or references.
I got two questions:
When comparing operating systems, what are the main points for
comparison?
How's the comparison between the main operating systems today?
Specifically, I know I found one a few weeks ago that included detailed command-line (not phpmyadmin) instructions for creating the necessary database user and database, configuring Apache virtual hosts to point to the packaged wordpress-mu install and handle wildcard subdomains, etc., but this week Google's not finding it.
Hello! I have bought my new netbook Acer Aspire One 751h some days ago and was very unpleased with it performance - videotalking in skype is almost unuseable, watching videos on YouTube(even in standart definition) is like watching slideshow and all netbook have increadible lags if I'm running more then 4-5 programms in one time. So, can somebody tell me how to impruve the performance of the netbook(OS - WinXP SP3)? And can you say me where to control power managment, please? Thank you!
Can any one tell me how many processes were loaded in win 3.1x on startup? (system tasks)...

Hi
I'm trying to use a DeLock PCMCIA adapter, CardBus to 2 x FireWire to get firewire connectivity on my laptop. It worked a few weeks ago, but now I get the message.
"This device cannot start (Code 10)" when I look it up in Device manager.
Any ideas of how to get it up and running?
I am running Windows XP SP3
Today Mac OS X kernel panicked twice on me.
The first time, I got this log.
The second time, I got this log.
A few minutes ago, iTunes started sounding blocky, after quitting FireFox everything went back to normal, I am currently using Opera.
These are my system's specs.
EDIT: I ran the apple hardware test and got these results.

I have been running Windows 7 RC1 since it was available a couple of months ago and had no issues whatsoever until today. When I start my laptop, Windows does not boot but instead Windows System Recovery starts. I've used diskpart to list the partitions on the drive and my system partition (c:) has a RAW filesystem. I really need to save all data on the disk as fast as I cant and I would really like not to have to reinstall my system.
Hi,
My mother has some serious issues using Windows (viruses, spywares, and so on) and I seriously think about setting up Ubuntu as a replacement. (That would ease my "job" as well)
The only concern I have is, is there anything to edit .docx (or .xlsx, .pptx, ...) documents on Linux ? Last time I tried OpenOffice (was 3 years ago), it was only able to open "old" MS Office documents (.doc, .xls, ...).
Thank you very much for your answers !
I've had many laptops over the course of many years, and while many things have sped up, one thing remains as slow today as it was years ago: (dis)connecting an external display. What's taking it so long to detect the new display and update the pixel buffers? I use Macs primarily, but I think this is equally slow on other platforms.

I have a spreadsheet which I know for certain has a large amount of hidden rows which are correctly hiding on my colleagues machines, and were correctly hiding on mine two days ago, but this morning I find the hidden flag is being ignored and all that hidden data is rendered.
Is there some checkbox, configuration option, or function key I have accidentally pressed or need to press?
On my old computer when you drag a window around, it seems to be cut up (like what you'd see in remote desktop on a slow connection) and its becoming really annoying.
A few weeks when I was transferring data from it to my new laptop and it was working fine then however when I started it a few minutes ago this issue occurred.
I tried restarting several time with no luck.
OS: Windows XP Professional
Graphics Card: nVidia 9600GT
I have a folder on the desktop that I created a while ago and it is empty. Everytime I delete it reappears after restart (hibernate/power on again, etc..)
How do I get rid of it?
hi there
Some time ago I've installed windows 7 on my laptop which has a EISA partition with MS Vista. I really don't remember what I did(I'm silly i Know) but now, that EISA partition has NTFS type but is also hidden.
Does anyone knows how can I make that NTFS partition into a EISA partition type, as it was build when I've buyed the laptop?

I installed glassfish v3 some time ago and it's been a while since I last used it, so I forgot the port on which the server is listening and the port on which the admin console is listening. Moreover, i forgot the admin password!
I'm pretty sure I've change them because I've tried the default values and didn't work.
Is there any configuration file where I can look for them (at least the port numbers)?
I just purchased a virtual dedicated server-plan that comes with shell access. It's been a while since I've actually used shell access remotely, so I'm a bit behind the times. Years ago I used PuTTY, but I'm curious if there are any better options that I should consider for establishing that connection, and managing my server remotely.
I figured this question would be most appropriately asked here since it is regarding tools.
I'm trying to optimize a table that hasn't been optimized in a long time. It has around 2.5 million rows with 1.3 GB of data and a 152 MB index. I started optimizing it about 15 minutes ago and I have no idea how long it will take.
The server is reasonably robust (quad xeon with 4GB ram) and has a 500MB innodb buffer pool size.
Should I expect this to take minutes, hours or days?
Since upgrading my hardware (mobo, CPU and memory) a couple months ago my computer no longer automatically suspends and hibernates after the configured idle periods. Both functions work just fine manually, but if I leave the computer on overnight it's still active the next morning even though it's configured to sleep after 3 hours and hibernate after 6 hours.
How do I diagnose the cause of this?
Hi there,
I experienced a major Mail.app crash on Snow Leopard couple of days ago.
It took me hours to be able to make the folder structure usable again by Mail.
I changed permissions back to 755 for all subfolders starting from and including ~/Library/Mail
Mail now works again but settings such as folder order in the left side bar and mail ordered by date in some folders don't persist anymore.
Any idea?
Thxs for help
This used to work perfectly up until about a month or two ago. When doing a screen capture onto the clipboard (cmd + ctr + shift + 4) and pasting it into a new document in Photoshop (only in photoshop, pasting it elsewhere like mail works fine), the drop shadow around the application doesn't look right. What can i do to fix this?
Thanks.

Hiya.
i really hope this question suites serverfault, if not my apologies!
I have an ip address, is there a way to find the web hosting service that this ip address belongs to ?
I tried using whois and traceroute but no luck so far.
the case is that my friend bought a domain and storage several years ago and he can't remember where he bought the storage from.
thanks!
I have my msn email account setup with a bunch of folders to put all my different emails in. I don't use rules, just drag and drop sort. On my current computer, I have it go to outlook, and all the folders pop up fine. But I set that up 4 years ago, and now I'm setting up a new laptop and have no idea how to get it going again. Any ideas?
I have a bunch of media files which I want to record to DVD, but since each DVD only fits 4.5GB, I have to find the optimal way to organize the files to use the minimum number of DVDs (otherwise the empty space left in each DVD can easily add up). Are there any tools to help with this?
Many years ago there was a DOS utility to do this with floppy disks.
About 18 months ago, I purchased a 1Tb Western Digital My Book Studio Edition II for backup of my home system.
It has 2x 500Gb drives in it, which I had configured as RAID 1. One of the disks has now died, and rather than replace like for like, I'd like to replace both drives to increase the capacity (2 x 2Tb would be nice).
I'm struggling to find a list of compatible drives, has anyone else upgraded theirs?
