The problem with this (as I see it) is that I wouldn't be able to listen to any streams; is this correct or is it not? Anyhow disabling the library seems to have stopped Crome from opening up that thing (which as far as I can tell0 _does_ have something to do with something in Winamp! If you still have that post where I pasted in the link that was opening, go back and have a look at it and see if you agree! Tom Kaufman

Now, use your Home key to get to the top of the treelist which should be General Preferences Opened (if you are not there after using the Home key, then arrow until you hear that being read). Now Tab to Always connected (LAN, DSL, Cable) and arrow down until you get to Not connected to the internet and hit the Escape key to close the Properties. If you do not like the outcome of that choice, then do it again putting it back to the selection that it was before changing it by doing it in the reverse direction because Properties will already be placed at the same location when you reopen them making it more convenient. Let us know if this helped the situation or not if you do not mind. -----Original Message----- From: Smiling? <bli...@sbcglobal.net> Sent: Sunday, November 24, 2024 21:53 To: 'all-audio@groups.io' <all-audio@groups.io> Subject: RE: [all-audio] A Problem When I Open Winamp Yes, that is precisely the information I was interested in receiving and it does not sound as if though you actually do have the mini-browser opened which I would assume you did otherwise it would have not been sending you to whichever site when you first opened it unless you just did not say the mini-browser which I doubt. So I am honestly not at all sure of why it is sending you to the site that it's sending you to. -----Original Message----- From: all-audio@groups.io <all-audio@groups.io> On Behalf Of Tom Kaufman via groups.io Sent: Sunday, November 24, 2024 21:44 To: all-audio@groups.io Subject: Re: [all-audio] A Problem When I Open Winamp Okay...now that I realized that I was doing '"alt-tab" (instead of "control tab) I think I'm on the right track now, so with control-tab, I find that Winamp library, Winamp editor and main window are open; hopefully this is the information you need to know!

Unless you did not try Control+Tabbing to see (you did not mention it at all if you did). So instead of Alt+T to toggle the mini-browser tab, try Alt+W to open up the main window of the player and see then if you can Control+Tab to it after toggling it. Here are a list of keystrokes along with the window/tab that will be opened or closed/toggled. Alt+W Toggle Main Window. Alt+E Toggle Playlist Editor. Alt+G Toggle Equalizer. Alt+T Toggle Mini-browser. Alt+S Go to Skin selection. Ctrl+P Go to Preferences. -----Original Message----- From: all-audio@groups.io <all-audio@groups.io> On Behalf Of Tom Kaufman via groups.io Sent: Sunday, November 24, 2024 21:09 To: all-audio@groups.io Subject: Re: [all-audio] A Problem When I Open Winamp With Winamp in focus (which it is as it usually is the only window that is open when I open Winamp, I hit alt-T (as I am pretty sure this is what you said) but on my machine, with Winamp open, "alt-T" does absolutely nothing!

So figure out how you can get Winamp actually in focus and do the Control+Tab to see which tabs are actually opened and write them down here for us so we can see more of what is what. -----Original Message----- From: all-audio@groups.io <all-audio@groups.io> On Behalf Of Tom Kaufman via groups.io Sent: Sunday, November 24, 2024 19:31 To: all-audio@groups.io Subject: Re: [all-audio] A Problem When I Open Winamp I tried hitting "alt-T"...no soap; that page still opens!

You may want to Control+Tab to cycle through whichever other tabs you have open before closing the mini-browser to make sure that you still will actually have other tabs open so you will not accidentally close the only open tab causing different problems. -----Original Message----- From: all-audio@groups.io <all-audio@groups.io> On Behalf Of Tom Kaufman via groups.io Sent: Sunday, November 24, 2024 09:45 To: all-audio@groups.io Subject: Re: [all-audio] A Problem When I Open Winamp Hello Joe and list: Okay...I decided to try what you have said about this problem of having a webpage pop up whenever I open Winamp; I don't do well with tree views, so what I need from you are step by step instructions (that even I will understand) that'll tell me where this "disable network thingy is, for I'm just not seeing it and I don't want to totally screw something up! I know that with Winamp, wherever you close out is where you'll come back to when you re-open Winamp again, so like I said, I need complete, step-by-step" instructions on how to navigate this tree view, so I can stop this thing from bringing up that dang webpage! Sure...I can get rid of it quick enough, but I don't want it popping up at all as this just creates a step that I don't need to be bothered with! Thanks in advance!
