Hp xp pro notebook confusion.
-
copy that, thanks.

And just out of interest, which programs is it stopping you from installing?
-
remus, while you're there, could you tell me something about codecs?
Something to do with media players is all I know.
I just had a look at jan's site and tried to view his spider animation but 'wrong codec'.
baz -
if you meant 'un'installing, I just went and had a look and this time i was able to uninstall the hp security protect paranoia thingy sucessfully.
-
A codec is basically what tells your computer how to interpret video and audio files. This is useful because video/audio formats are updated pretty frequently so its good to be able to upgrade just that piece of the software rather than having to install a new media player every time.
And yeah, i did mean uninstall.
-
So a codec pack would be something which covered all bases or does one have to find them all individually?
-
TRY THIS LINK TO GET mEDIApLAYERcLASSIC
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=82303&package_id=84486THERE IS NEITHER SPANISH OR ENGLISH VERSION
WILL HAVE TO GUESS EVERYTHING

There are plenty of codec packs that cover everything. Heres the one i use, i havent had any problems so far.

bazWell, to watch the spider animation you need to install the free DivX codec. http://www.divx.com
There is also several codec packs that includes support for DivX movies. -
I just then wrote a huge rave, and then I must have wrongly touched the very sensitive touch pad the wrong way, cos it deleted it!
but no mind, thanks for input.are there any hp users out there?

take symantec out, or norton.
take MSN out. immediatly.
take windows defender out.
take the gadgets out if you are in vista thing.
as well as all the crap on the right hand vertical size.
once done :
download AVG 8 FREE,
SPYWAREBLASTER
LAVASOFT AD AWARE
SPYBOT SEARCH AND DESTROY.keep them in one folder you can remember easiy.
Shut off the laptop or whatevver, wait 10 seconds, and run it again.
Then install all the softwares of that remindful folder.
do as they claim except allowing them to get in the internet browser.once done, run first the Spywareblaster, then the AVG 8, then Lavasoft and then the Spybot..___________________
after that go and get TUNEUP UTILITIES, get it, you have 30 days to trial. Clean your registry, clean your pc of excceded things,allows you to order wich programs get in on the run of windows.
It works.
use them regularly
and everyday exterminate the cookies and the temporal files and so from the internet options in the control panel, or directly from the browser, tools, eliminate.that´s it
finally :
get a real pad_note .
i mean a paged_one with leafs you can touch and pass in a marketplace at the zoco.
-
Thanks Juan.
I have avg free, also a licenced version of tune up utilities, its really useful.
I cant find anything called 'windows defender'
Wouldnt removing msn mess with my network settings, file sharing etc?Whats the story with the 'Zoco"?

I get it.

you are a genius Baz
i have taken msn it off and have no problems
but i dont know about the network file sharing thing,
the thing you have to do about the defender is to go to Control Panel and click Security and then ... you find those icons and desactivate them untill the others softwares are installed. then if you want you can activate afterwards. i do and ok yet

Thanks juan, sorry for late reply, Ive been away.
