Tried that, it doesn't work. Thank you anyway.


Thunderbird != hosts file, and a wild card will not work. For suggestions on 
workarounds see:



This is not simple, as it involves running your own DNS server.

However a deeper question is why are you trying to manage this sort of thing at 
the hosts file level? I understand what you're accomplishing, but why are you 
getting directed to those sites so often?


The sites that have added Intellitext's 'feature' end up loading a 
separate tab that I end up having to close. I believe it is some sort of 
markup (?) that turns select words in the text to clickable web links or 
ads.

Re: Processor upgrade?

2011-06-13 Thread dc
It should work. A few MDDs came with only single processors but I
think the mobo was the same as the duals. The board should have a part
number printed on it that you can cross reference. I think I have a
heatsink from a MDD dual 1GHz lying around somewhere, "Reply to
author" if you need one.

Per this :  and given 
that the model # you specified falls between the two explicitly labelled Mirror 
Drive Door models, I'd say yes.

Actually I think the CPU modules are interchangeable among all of the models 
listed there.

If you are determined to use this computer, I would suggest not paying

 Bad idea, since the messages all contain posts that you wrote, and marking

No, it just marks it based on the sender of the returned email. The 
spam filter doesn't look at included message quotes, just the 
headers/subject of the marked email.


Well, really, it depends on they type of characterizations (fields, 
bayesians, etc) the spam filter uses on your particular mail

subsequently put about 1/4 of the legit posts to g3-5 into the spam

Upgraded MDD Overheats

2011-06-13 Thread Gary Sucher
Hi all,
About 6 months ago, I upgraded my G4 MDD single 1.25 GHz (running 10.5.8)
with a Sonnet DP 1.6 GHz card. I noticed some speed improvement, barely
enough to justify the price (about $175). But I noticed the fans were
working overtime like they've never done before. Loud. I installed
Temperature Monitor and the CPU temps were over 62 c. After a while and some
research I installed CHUD and placed it into NAP mode, which lowered the
temps drastically and silenced the fans. But it too often now froze when not
in use. I need to find a way to cool the computer so as not to use NAP. Has
anyone ever installed the copper heatsink from a 1.42 processor to the
Sonnet 1.6? Does it fit and does it lower temps? Any fan mods the people can
recommend? Anything else?

Thanks,
Gary

Re: Hosts file wildcard

Kris,

I assume as on a Windows computer *.us.intellitext.com should work.

Subject: Hosts file wildcard

I have a lot of entries in my hosts file for intellitext.com, each one 
having the name of a different website preceeding us.intellitext.com:

livescience.us.intellitxt.com
quizfarm.us.intellitxt.com
space.us.intellitxt.com
knowyourmobile.uk.intellitxt.com
handcellphone.us.intellitxt.com
modmymoto.us.intellitxt.com
modmymobile.us.intellitxt.com
denver.cbslocal.us.intellitxt.com
motherboardpoint.uk.intellitxt.com
experts-exchange.us.intellitxt.com
ehow.uk.intellitxt.com
softpedia.uk.intellitxt.com
uncoached.us.intellitxt.com
itreviews.uk.intellitxt.com
feedsweep.us.intellitxt.com
wikia.us.intellitxt.com
answers.us.intellitxt.com
ehow.us.intellitxt.com
macobserver.us.intellitxt.com

etc… ad nauseum.

Is there a wild card I can use to block all us.intellitext.com sites 
instead of making a separate entry with each one I come across?

Tina
