  1. Soccer...
  2. Poor you. Oh well, I guess its the price you will have to pay.
  3. Good initiative. However, don´t forget to tell them, since spamassassin (SA) can do things wrong sometimes, meaning that some adresses that SA thinks is spam isn´t and should be on the whitelist instead and so on.
  4. Some clarification from me... What I ment with popups is that zonealarm asks my mom if she wants to allow blah blah to enter the internet. Atleast that is how I understood her being the problem. As for firewalls not needing updates. My norton asks all the time if I want to update this and that, and I think in my moms case that might be one of the issues, but I am not sure. As for spybot, yes that is on my install list next time I see them.
  5. Congrats to both of you Rob, does this mean you will have to behave yourself now and wear a suit?
  6. My mom and her guy got their first computer a while ago. On this computer which was a gift from us kids in the family, I installed AVG antivirus and Zonealarm firewall and configured it so they should not have to worry about clicking buttons they don´t understand. However, last time I was at their house I found out that there was new versions of these programs to download. I downloaded them and installed them. They are on dial-up, so the download took time but since I thought all settings was gonna be saved I skipped checking the settings after installation. Yesterday my mom calls and says there are popups all over the screen. Since their english isn´t good (see below), my mom ended up angry on herself, since I had problems understanding her and she had problems understanding me since all these popups was a blur to her. My problem is that I live 2 hours drive from them so any questions & problems that they have must usually be dealt with over the phone. They are computer illiterates and their english is limited to yes, no and hello. So now I want to find a antivirusprogram and firewall that more or less takes care of itself but still doing its job good. If the configuration is on a more advanced level, that will be no problem but after configuration is done the programs must be able to work on their own without popups, warnings or decisions to make for the user. Now you wonder why I ask this since most of the usual programs can do this and can easily go to the closest store and buy one. My problem is that they don´t wanna spend too much money on this since they don´t use it that often. Its more of a games and email computer for them than surfing the internet. Second, I think we all sometimes only have the big programs in mind while there might be other free or low cost alternatives that might be better for people like my mom and her guy. Third, I really don´t know which programs might be best for their conditions. Requirements for both programs: Easy to use meaning it take care of itself or can speak swedish. Running on Windows ME. Free or low cost. Any ideas appreciated.
  7. Sorry Ellen, I dont know the answer but I am moving this to the blogs section for better exposure.
  8. I´m not sure since I never had any need to back up a forum, but I think you will need to use the "Download a MySQL Database Backup" in cpanel.
  9. I dont have any advice on that since I dont have to many fonts myself, sorry for that. I just wanted to congratulate on getting new computers.
  10. I´m glad you solved it. And don´t be sorry for wasting disk space on this. We have all been in similar situations many times. Also, moving for organization.
  11. Weezy, I forgot to say, don´t forget spamassassin.
  12. Or you could move all emails that are in other horde folders to the inbox. This should be able to be done in horde. Then use thunderbird to pop-download them in to thunderbirds inbox. Even if they are read in the webmail they can be downloaded to thunderbird. Then in thunderbird, create all the subfolders and move them from inbox to the correct folders.
  13. This is good news. As already have been said, Just one more reason why TCH Rocks! And also, if I have my site there it can wave to Andy.
  14. In Cpanel > Email section > Default adress > Set Default Address to :fail: This will make all emails not sent to a adress set up by you to fail. Also, moving for organization.
  15. Sorry I don´t know the answer. I just wanted to Welcome you to your extended family.
  16. I hate opera Last few times I tried it, when ever I had entered a url in the adress bar and pressed enter, my internet connection went down. I reboot and tries again, internet connection goes down. New reboot, this time I try same url with either I.E or Firefox and it works. Then trying same url with opera and connection goes down. May be coincidence or may not, but I think that with so many tries, it is not a coincidence. Opera...
  17. Welcome to your extended family And thanks for the kind words.
  18. Nothing is wrong. Please see my EDIT above.
  19. Hi and Welcome to your extended family The comma was a typo. As for the other question, yes, the new domain needs to propagate too (can take up to 72 hours). However, I see this when entering chicagobaseballmuseum.ORG in to my browser: Coming soon to this site...and to the City of Chicago Is that correct? EDIT: I missread your post a little and did some checking, the nameserver settings for chicagobaseballmuseum.COM is correct, so it should only be a propagation issue.
  20. Nice finding, HCSuperStores I´ll just move this to the software section.
  21. Welcome to your extended family
  22. Welcome to your extended family Caion.
  23. Unfortunately as far as I know there are no plans on implementing the invision gallery. The scripts that comes with cpanel are decided by cpanel.net and it is up to them to decide what and when to implement anything. If you like to suggest this as a feature in cpanel, please see this page http://www.cpanel.net/support/index.htm And scroll to this part:
  24. I second that... Welcome to you extended family Don´t forget to pop in to introductions for more wlecomes.
  25. You will need to submit a ticket about this since we forum mods do not have access to your account or the servers, link on top of page.
