 The point has been made many, many times, but the way viri like these
 sods 
 now work is to not only send mail TO everyone in a contact list in
 Outlook,
 but also set the FROM address to be someone in the outlook address book.

Unless I'm missing something, isn't the obvious solution don't use
Outlook?  Regardless of Outlook's intrinsic merits or demerits, it's by
far the most popular target for viruses of any email program.  So why not
use something else?

You know, Doc, it hurts when I do this..  
Then don't do that!

 It's dead unless an external power source is connected to the dock.

Bingo.  Works like a charm now that it's connected to the mains.  Thanks

[LIB] Lib 110CT USB problems

2002-02-02 Thread Charles Hawtrey

Date: Sat, 2 Feb 2002 19:13:25 -0800 (PST)
From: Charles Hawtrey [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Subject: Lib 110CT USB problems

Hello everyone,

I bought the enhanced port rep from Toshiba but the 110 doesn't want to
recognize the USB port. Disappointing, as this is the sole reason why I
bought the enhanced port rep.  Under Win98 Device Manager there aren't the
usual entries for USB hub, etc., in fact nothing remotely resembling a USB
device. 

I tried hooking up a USB device to the port and booting, just in case it
needed something connected in order to work, but still no joy.  The port
rep itself seems to be OK as I can use a keyboard connected to its
keyboard (not USB) port.

Are any special drivers or setup tweaks needed to get USB going on this
thing?

Thanks for whatever help you can give.

CMH

Nice modem/LAN combo

2001-01-31 Thread Charles Hawtrey

Date: Wed, 31 Jan 2001 08:28:44 -0800 (PST)
From: Charles Hawtrey [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Subject: Nice modem/LAN combo

I've been lurking (and, very rarely, posting) here for a long time and
thought the group might be interested to know about an item that seems
especially suited to the Libretto.  It's a Linksys PCMLM56 combination 56K
modem and 10/100 ethernet PCMCIA card.  Instead of a lot of discussion,
I'll just list some points:

Advantages:
(1) Combo modem/ethernet means only one card to keep track of.
(2) No dongle!  No special cables or adapters to carry, lose,
or break. There's a bulbous thingy on the outside edge
the card that has standard RJ-45 and RJ-11 connectors.
(3) Built-in digital line protection for the modem.
(4) Cables connect horizontally rather than vertically, keeping
them out of the way of the keyboard.
(5) Reasonable price (about $115 from buy.com)

Disadvantage:
(1) The big connector block (see (2) above) means that you might
not be able to use this with a second PCMCIA card, depending 
on the profile of the second card.  (Hint: if you buy the 
PCMLM56 copy the drivers onto your hard disk instead of 
installing from the floppy.)

I don't know whether the modem will work outside the U.S.  My experience
in a dozen or so international trips has been that any modem will work as
long as you use X3 to bypass dial tone issues.

Hope this is helpful to someone.

CMH
