Yea! Good team work everyone! We're on our way to number one help forum now!! :roundtable:

I'm sure this is all old stuff to most of you, but maybe there is some one not familiar with the snipping tool. I haven't used the old prtsc sense I found the Window snipping tool. That's the way all my screen shots are made in my attachments! Trying to keep the forum active for guests!:thinker: Here's link about the snipping tool!;);) There's a old saying that a picture is worth a thousand words, or some thing like that. I suppose I'm the king of attachments here on the forum. I do better with pictures than I do with words. http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/use-snipping-tool-capture-screen-shots#1TC=windows-7 http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/use-snipping-tool-capture-screen-shots#1TC=windows-8

Getting a little off topic, but I don't think that's always a bad thing. I would never let a little thing like the flue keep me off Free PC Help Forum :rotf:

I went through also, but the flue shot seemed to help and mine only lasted two days. That was enough however. Already welcomed you back on several threads [uSER=9187]@allheart55 (Cindy E)[/uSER]

Hi [uSER=9187]@allheart55 (Cindy E)[/uSER] . Glad to see you back and well again. You beat me to it. I have already voted. If everyone votes will get a green life savor!

Hey @Rachel This is one [uSER=9187]@allheart55 (Cindy E)[/uSER] left out. I thought I would share this with you tonight. I'm 76 years old and when I tell my grand kids this, they say "No you didn't Papa" I say yes, 'I did.' I had to share bath water with my sister and she would always tell me she peed in the tub.We had to heat the water on the stove. Those were the good old days. No one had any thing in those days, but we were happier then, I think!!

Hi had 5 Kings 125 points!! Forum was boring so I played a little poker!! My score was not counted. I protest. Here's the prove !

Hi Gugs some times WOT warns me. Some times MBAM blocks as a malicious site?? I don't have a clue why this happens!! The one in screen shot MBAM flaged as malicious IP 66.77.96.140 PS That's why I love my MBAM!

@DSTM Good night Dougie!;)

I know you weren't waiting to nail me my friend; but you were well aware that Windows firewall fails the leak test. I was just pulling your chain a little tonight. The forum does get a little boring at times and I'm probably trying to hard to make it interesting to our members and guest. I agree 100% that 3rd party firewalls can be a pain in the butt! Its 12:01 in Okie land and 5;02 PM in Aussie land. We seem to be the only members interested in Free PC Help Forum. I have really fell for this forum and the staff and I plan to stay here as long as I'm welcome. It will just take time for the word to get get out and then our forum will grow into number one help forum. I can feel this in my bones. See you mate. Thanks for your reply on my thread Mate!

The reason is that MSE seems to have a week firewall. I have had 3rd party firewalls in the past, but I have never seen a reason to add one to W7, as I have never had a infection. I always have back up images if I ever get so badly infected that I can't clean up my OS. I knew you were going to bring up the leak test @DSTM because you just don't miss any thing, and you were well aware that MSE fails Gibson's leak test. You were waiting to nail me if I tried to tell you MSE passed the leak test. No, Dougie MSE fails the leak test, but it passes the other tests. I might think about adding a 3rd party firewall if I ever see a problem. Just because some thing gets in doesn't mean it can get out.;);). My MBAM premium has blocked malicious malware both incoming and out going. With my wireless router and my other layers of security, I'm not to worried at this time! Thanks for your reply my friend!! :clap:

The bottom line @DSTMis below,but it's fun to get passed on some of the other tests also. Truly I failed the leak test from Gibson, but passed the others. How safe do you need to be? What do you do on line which puts you at greater risk? Can you control or reduce these risks? Are you a careful web surfer, or do you click on anything which flashes at you? If a security alert pops up, do you always click "allow"? And isn't that the same as if the alert never came up, and the security program did nothing to protect you? Ninety-nine plus percent of the time, the problem with on line safety lies between the keyboard and the chair -- i.e., the End User.;);)

Hi! I hope this isn't to religious for our forum. Another amazing thing the mind will do!!

The mind is amazing!!:woohoo: That is, what's left of mine. I probable have forgotten as much as I remember, but I'm hanging in there. Learning new things and forgetting old thing. Learning new things that were probably once old things. :whome:

There's a lot of stuff going on at GRC. If I worked on computers for a living, I would invest in SpinRite to recover data from fired HD's. The price seems right to me??;) Thanks for your reply!! PS Looks like I have been a active member on Free PC Help Forum for 12 days now. How could anyone cause so much trouble in just 12 days?? I spend why to much time surfing the internet!! What else can you do at my age?? Where's [uSER=9187]@allheart55 (Cindy E)[/uSER] hiding?? :big_ha:

I use the cheap stuff. I have a Motorola wireless router. MSE Anti-Virus and a life time MBAM Premium license. I use WOT and the free MBAM Anti-Exploit. That's it!!:omg:

Now That's good to know about my security:winner:!!

Hi! I got to get some activity going on the forum to keep members and guest interested and wanting to join our forum! Has anyone heard of GRC?? Have you used the free software to test your security?? I have and here are some of my results! How does your security test?? Steve Gibson has been around for ever and is trusted and respected in the computer world. Click on the drop down freeware at the top to test your security software.;) I'm only recommending the free security tests. https://www.grc.com/freepopular.htm

Hi! So I guess this tested my quad core processor??? And it passed??? That's a good thing. Sea tools says my HD is good and Memtest86+ says my RAM is good. I guess that's about all I can test!!:winner:

Hi! I guess my old Toshiba is still doing OK . Going on 4th year. I seldom shut it down. Here's my diagnostic test!

This is who I am!

One King that really made a impression on me was King Solomon . He prayed for wisdom. That is all I ask for also. There is no greater force in this world than wisdom. Tonight I ask for wisdom!! Although Solomon was young, he soon became known for his wisdom. The first and most famous incident of his cleverness as a judge was when two women came to his court with a baby whom both women claimed as their own. Solomon threatened to split the baby in half. One woman was prepared to accept the decision, but the other begged the King to give the live baby to the other woman. Solomen then knew the second woman was the mother. That is truly wisdom My friends. I only wish we had leaders like that today. I'm afraid we do not!! Join Free PC Help Forum and share your wisdom with us. You are all welcome here! Right Bob??? No matter your skills, all are welcome here. I'm sorry Boss I wear my heart on my sleeve and this is what came to me tonight. Thank you for letting me be myself here on Free PC Help Forum. Other forums have not allowed me to do this and so I suppose, I'm over doing my privileges and my welcome here. I had to share this with everyone here and with one special friend [uSER=9187]@allheart55 (Cindy E)[/uSER] If this is not appropriate, please delete this thread! PS Please share you thoughts! Gary!

It certainly is!!!! The whole world is in a heap of trouble and the internet has gone into the cesspool

My bench mark score! I guess it's good??? I'm always thinking how I can make our forum interesting to members and guests. I have a lot I want to share on Free PC Help Forum
