Morning, all. Hope you folks are doing well this Saturday morning. I'll be trying to run some errands today and puttering around with the home network configurations to improve my laptop's ability to access my desktop in the basement without me having to crawl up and down the stairs.
Wow. I managed to log in a couple of times over the past few days, but everything was sooooo sloooowwwww, and I often couldn't even get the page to come up. I thought it was my PC because it all sort of corresponded with my upgrade to IE7 and download of Firefox.
I evidently did have a few issues, though. I had to completely reinstall Spybot. Ran Spybot, Ad-Aware, a registry cleaner, a special security update to help the slow IE7 issue, then double-defragged the hard drive and put it down to rest. This morning, it's all acting lovely again.
I'm glad that my machine is a little better tuned at the moment, but also glad to know that I wasn't the only one having problems with FTE.

Not really "modded", Jim, just sort of "cleaned up" from all the various package installs and configuration setups from getting the machine and getting it established for my various purposes. I still need to get the wireless broadband setup once I get my tax ID number and convert my cell accounts over to the business.
I'm just trying to keep from having to go up and down the stairs to work on various things where reference files are stored in only one location. I would rather have the multi-connectivity than try to keep up with synchronizing duplicated file storages. It will also give me access to my older non-wireless printer for the filter cover logo prints from upstairs, and then the kids can do the transporting up and down for me to do the transfers upstairs. I shouldn't have any trouble getting it configured since both machines are XP-based... just need to invest the time.

Jim, I did post some of the stuff in the az chapter marketplace...
I did pretty good...sold a toolcart for $150, 2 wrench sets and a socket for $110, and some individual sockets, a ratchet and wrenches for $150
none of the furniture sold...so I will do it again tomorrow morning...but in the front yard...if I get $50 more I will be happy!
I only had 3 people stop by today!

That really is cool! I tend to grill for me & the pups, so I don't need a big grill, but that'd be perfect for the garage too! Very cool!!
OK, this is NWS and a bit bloody, but FUNNY..
