    I don't understand why you are getting these, Rich. I have been working on three Windows 7 computers today and I installed Ad Muncher on all of them. I did a couple dozen searches using Google, on each of them, no problem.

    I agree, the Reliability Monitor can be a good tool to help diagnose computer problems. Many people don't realize how many tools that Windows 7 & 8 actually have built in now.

    Rich probably meant the download at CNet or Softonic, Gary.

    I used to use the Secunia online scanner a lot but never the Secunia PSI. When you've been working on computers for a really long time, often, the touch or feel of the computer will alert you to what is wrong.

    No worries, James. They just removed the Windows downloads last week. You couldn't have known.

    The issue is not still there, Rich. It hasn't done that for me since I installed it a month ago. I got rid of it for the same reason that you did but that problem no longer exists. I don't know what it is that you are seeing.

    I got a bunch of ThinkPads from a clients business that they were getting rid of several years ago. They were all running XP. I refurbished four of them. Three for grandkids and one 12 " touch screen for my husband. I installed Windows 7 on the three for the grandkids and Windows 8 for my husband because of the touch screen. He never really liked the ThinkPad because it had Win 8 on it. They all came with docking stations and I added some ram to them. I had to replace the video card in one and the hard drive in two of them. They are still going strong and the grandkids have been pretty rough with them.

    He figured it out and it's all straightened out now.

    I think Rich mostly means the laptops where memory is not user replaceable. I was actually looking at some cheaper priced Toshiba's from Gary's link that had the Windows 7 downgrade option available. AND the memory was user replaceable. :D

    I like them both but I'll probably stay with the blue for awhile. There was nothing to put up with, Bob. I felt as if the upgrade was seamless. :clap:

    I think AD Muncher works better than AdBlock Plus and it absolutely can be used as a replacement for AdBlock in Firefox. Rich used to use it all of the time with Firefox. It does remove both the ad and the ad container. You can't even see that the ad was ever there to begin with. You can actually use AdBlock and Ad Muncher together, they don't seem to interfere with each other or cause problems together. I've been using them both without any issue for the last month.

    I just found this... http://www.heidoc.net/joomla/technology-science/microsoft/14-windows-7-direct-download-links

    I knew that I read this somewhere recently about Digital River. What a shame, I used it frequently. The ISO files that were available from Digital River for Windows operating systems have been pulled and transferred to a Microsoft site. Microsoft has stopped support for OEM installs via a ISO download. More information here. http://www.heidoc.net/joomla/technology-science/microsoft/14-windows-7-direct-download-links

    I appreciate your effort, James. If I am correct, I believe the Windows downloads from Digital River are now gone, as of last week. That's probably why the download links for the ISO's don't work. Edit To Add: The ISO's that were available for Windows OS have been removed.

    You have to be careful, N3 because some of those entries could be shared registry keys that go with other programs.

    Do you have the link for this, Gary? My husband prefers to have Win 7.

    I'm not very fond of HP laptops either.

    I like the new look and I definitely think the pages are loading faster.

    I'm getting ready to replace my husbands laptop for him. He currently has a Toshiba. Thinking of another Toshiba or a Dell.

    I don't understand why. I don't see any ads at all.
  23. allheart55 Cindy E
    Add Google to your filters. I don't see any of the ads as you can see from my screenshot.
  24. allheart55 Cindy E
    Maybe your Ad Muncher isn't configured correctly?
  25. allheart55 Cindy E
    As Muncher takes that away, Rich. See my screenshot from your link....
