donetao

Hi @shortordercook When a person spends the time and effort to email the owner of Golden Oaks to try and find the computer man; that person will always hold a special place in this old man's heart. When the owner forwarded your email to me, I was walking on air all day and could hardly wait to answer your mail and tell you where you could find me. You have added a special southern warmth to Free PC Help Forum that comes from your heart. I love people and people feel that love and give it back to me. You are also one of those people who love people and people give that love back to you. I've been wanting to say these things to you. I was going to do that through a email, but after reading your reply here, I want the whole forum to hear these things. Having said that, there are things we can do after you get your new computer. There are some very smart people here that will be happy to help and I will be one of them. The first thing will be creating a back up image of your new operating system. When you have a clean image on a external HD, you are almost fearless and can recover from almost any disaster in 15+ minutes. My favorite software to create a back up image is Macrium Reflect free. You can start reading about Macrium Reflect in this link. It has some great videos. It is very easy to use and I'm sure you won't have any trouble mastering it once you get your new PC. Thank you for your great post. You have made my day friend. Gary(The computer Guy) http://www.macrium.com/help.aspx

No one wants to respond to post # 34 Who is donetao in the Microsoft thread. Last clue 89!! Can you find donetao in the Microsoft thread @AWS?? How about you @DSTM ! Can you find donetao in the Microsoft thread! Those were my good old days when I was full of it. Now I'm mellowed out and old and still full of it!! Still getting emails from Microsoft forum after two years. I guess they didn't ban me!! Steven Boots still loves me. Just having a little fun Boss! :big_ha:

Hi Eric! Wise uninstaller left 40 Paltalk registry entries behind and two files. I deleted the files with Search Everything. You will have to hit F3 40 times in regedit to remove all registry entries left overs. I have a better way, but Free PC Help Forum doesn't approve and I understand why. If you read my first reply you will see what Wise uninstaller leaves behind. I will email you how to remove left overs in the registry my friend. Thanks for following me to Free PC Help Forum Eric! PS I might not be around here much longer. It seems I break the rules to often!;):(

Yes! Always back up your registry before removing any entries there. Paltalk does not reside any where on my PC and that includes the Registry. Glad to see you Eric! PS Are you using Regedit and F3 to remove Paltalk entries?? None are found in my registry. I removed them!

Hi ! My down load speed isn't good either. My ISP repairman was out here and proved the problem is in my wireless hardware on my lap top. He got almost 50Mbps down load on his lap top. I suppose I could get a toggle and do better, but I'm lazy and cheap! I'm about ready for a new lappy any way!! http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/4191970337

It's not normal to me! When I click on your url it takes me here. You may want to visit our malware section! bad url - reference number: jb9KICoGVCdrgK3Ll87hHA

I approve! I was never a big fan of Paltalk. From the beginning it was bundled with PUP's. I hate PUP s. I uninstalled Paltalk with Wise uninstaller. Here's some facts why your PC may get bogged down if you install and uninstall a lot software. The first two screen shots are what Paltalk installs on your PC. The next screen shots are what Wise uninstaller left behind. Not a really big deal, but over time these can build up. Not on my PC. Search Everything and the search feature in Regseeker find the left behinds and deletes them. PS I only use the search feature of Regseeker, so don't holler at me.:D

Good I like challenges. Nice to see a young person here on Free PC Help Forum!

Welcome to Free PC Help Forum cakewoman.I'm sure you will like it here!

A thread that you are following on Microsoft Community has received a reply from BobSpokane. Title: Window 7 will can not Backup or let me do a system image backup. Reply: great answer, i also has the same question and search in google for some time. Now i solve this problem. Above is part of the email I got today. Some parts are not shown until someone finds me in the Microsoft thread!! Please notice the date of the first reply and the last reply. That's funny!!

Here's some more clues! I mention my old friend Steven Boots and my ranting starts on page #5 Need more clues?? Lets wait awhile before more clues are given.:D My ranting got me a personal email from Steven. I told you all that this isn't my first rodeo. This email I got today brought up a lot of old memories about my old self. Who will be the first one on Free PC Help Forum to find donetao in the Microsoft thread?? My icon should help!! I like to have a little fun too!! :rotf:

Hi This should be my last reply to this thread as I think I have had my fun! I have copied part of Pete's reply!! The scanners that I posted here work for me. Can I guarantee they will work for you? No I can't. Remember the definition of PC(Personal Computer). Do I think you will trash your PC with these scanners?? They are used on every help forum on the internet, so I serious doubt that they are going to trash your PC. If you want a expert to clean your PC, then visit our malware section and let them help you. I'm going to attach a link to a Microsoft thread, where I just received a email today. You might find it amusing. I had forgotten all about this until I got a email today See if you can figure which user is donetao. This thread was started in 2013. I'm still receiving emails two years later. I have grow up a lot sense then and use a little more thought in my replies. I do less ranting these days. Well most of the time!!:D:eek: Below is quote from Pete on my thread Dougie just reminded me about! But that's just me. Which brings us to........... Hi Mate! If it works for you, Go for it!! Well said. :) I would never use Avast or AVG.... but some people swear by them. I stopped using McAfee about 10 years ago .... but my brother still uses it today ( no matter how hard i try to get him to ditch it ) Some programs work better on some systems than others ... it's what suits you that counts. Remember the title of this thread is.. What's your favorite Tool for Malware Scanners?? So just because one program suggested isn't one that you would use..... doesn't mean that it doesn't have it uses. Here's the thread from Microsoft where I received a email today. Seems they still haven't fixed their problem with their back up feature. Now that's funny. Two years later and I still get email from Microsoft. It's a long thread. See if you know which one is donetao??Clue, he threatens Microsoft and dares them to ban him!! http://answers.microsoft.com/thread/92acb343-8f6d-4644-9487-f610b0b2922f :big_ha:

OOps! Looks like we woke up shortorder!!

Sorry @AWS I have strange people that follow me. I'm still trying to figure out why they like me!! :big_ha:

We do have our serious moments here, but we do like to have fun. I see @shortordercook is in the arcade section. She is being real quite to night. That worries me!!

You silver tongued devil!!:devil: :big_ha:

Bring it on Eric!! I enjoy a challenge. See if you can dethrone the Boss in golf! I tried but that is one tough game. I never got the hang of it. Going to give it another go one of these days. Fedora said he would join us March 10. Not sure why he's joining on patch Tuesday!! Sense I'm not welcome there any more, invite more of our friends to join us here. They are chosen few that talk malware 24/7 there, but I know there are others that would would love Free PC Help Forum.;);) PS My Anti- Virus is better than yours.:omg: That's gets old real fast to this old country boy. I tried to change them, but I wasn't successful.:D

Yes it's some thing to do when the forum gets a little dull and your waiting for some thing you can reply to!! The forum is fairly new. It's a old forum, but @AWS is trying to bring it back to life. You are now a member of a forum that is growing and you can grow with it. They allow me to get away with murder here. Don't know how much longer that will be tolerated. I have never been able to post my feelings this freely before. We will soon have a chat room when you can mingle with fellow members. It will be safe when @AWS gets it ironed out!! The Boss just keeps adding goodies to the forum. I guess he's rich!! :rotf:

Hello Eric! Welcome my friend! See if you can beat any of my arcade scores. You do have away with words my friend. You will find Free PC Help Forum much different than MT. I hit a str8 flush in three card poker. That's going to be hard to beat. Cindy thinks she can beat my score. We will see! Which game kept you up all night??

Hi! That was a good read Dougie! It seems that @starbuck agreed with a lot of my replies on that thread. Pete is a good man and I have no problem with him. I don't have any problems with anyone here on Free PC Help Forum. I hope no one has a problem with me!! The way I remember that thread, was that Pete approved of on line scanners. I thought I would have a little fun with them with this thread,but it seems I have caused a good friend to leave our forum and that really up sets me.

Hi Dougie! Is this the thread your referring to?? I forgot about that thread! It was pretty popular!! I think it's still listed as being popular. I guess all of a sudden on line scanners aren't popular any more?? Do you know why James is up set?? http://freepchelp.forum/t/203622/

I'll check it out Dougie. Can we consider that I probably had another brain fart and forgot about that thread already! I'm off to check it out!!

Hi! I'm not advising anyone asking for help with malware. I'm enjoying all this, but I'm really tired of trying to defend my self. The subject is what on line scanners do you use and James is the only member that has actually answered my question. The rest have been lectures and I'm tired of defending my replies . It's my nap time. I'll be back latter!! :big_ha:

Hi Dougie! Any time you try to help people, you're going to get some unexpected things happening. Have you ever read the side effects of your meds. People are just like computers. They are all different. What works for you might not work for me. There are hundreds of blood pressure pills. Different ones for different people. I don't take my wife's meds and she doesn't take mine. I know what you were saying in your reply. I also check our malware section on a daily basis. I don't know why we aren't getting threads about malware???
