Trying to reply to an email question from my excite email



As you have noticed my reply emails to you have been a little funky!
Ever since iwon took over excite - it's been downhill! (Enough
said . . . big - no real customer support) - Sad because I've had the
same address since I bought our first Mac in '96-'97. My homepage was
Apple Excite.

Like I was trying to write - I really feel like Homer Simpson trying to
answer your question - really don't know - I am new to the review
business - I do know that when I put Photoshop Elements in search on
yahoo - it came up with a few tutorial sites that you may want to check
out! Also the www.usefulpage-whatever link that I mentioned in the
review - I think on the second page there is a link to email the author -
Gregory Georges- is his name! He is a long time photo buff - turned
digital photo buff -sound familar- sounds like me or you. Only he has
written several books on the subject - just maybe one on Elements!

If you don't find the answer you are looking for - let me know and I will
check with my compadres at mymac -K?-

;0) Luv to u and yours - cyberwise - Trix

Virtual Bouncer - Wincelerator.com - for Windoze Computers



Here I am again - stuck with another "Marketscore" ordeal. For those of you that are fortunate enough to not know what I am talking about - you don't have teenagers who hit every "download now" button that they run across. They don't read the fine print that says "agreeing to this document" will allow our software to "take over your whole computer - and while we are letting you use our proxy server we can look over your browsing habits and use your files . . ." Now I am researching - Virtual Bouncer by wincelerator.com - This little parasite application reinstalls itself on startup and it also reinstalls itself right after you uninstall it!

It is supposed to be a trawling speed device - just like Marketscore - dern it all to heck we have a cable internet connection - how much faster can you get. My heck you need time to pick your nose once in awhile, don't you? It would be great if these so-called speedy proxies actually did what they proclaim they do: BUTT - this is what they do - They download their program - when you download some -Kaza Desktop or Limewire application- (what teenager running Windows doesn't run Kaza, Limewire or Bearshare -by that - I mean you've got to have your music - to listen to while your chatting in five different chat rooms - and playing a game or two) They proxy - or - should I say steal -or control - your browser and your internet server.

I forgot my original point in all this - I have children - and we are behind on our house payments - and the utilities are about to be shut off - the people two blocks away can hear our clothes dryer -BUTT we have cable internet and all is right with the world as far as my children are concerned - So "download" they will - and mom will have to mop up all the spills they make on this computer!

I am interested to know if - Macintosh OSX has the same download problems and proxy-server theft? My Mac's run 8.0 & 8.6., and are only used by me - for all my creative projects - A creative mind wants to know if she gets a new computer that can run OSX - am I going to have the same problems on the internet? Anyone out there - with knowledge - let me know - plez!!!!!!!!

Steve Jobs needs to get back on the stick and promote apple in schools again. But hey- Steve - fix that eMac problem before you go promoting too much - mainly because I want an eMac, although I wouldn't mind one of those big ones (you know the seventeen inchers). See there I go with that internet porno talk - I guess I have been clicking on too much of that porno spam when I go on my teenage sons email account. My God - did I just tell the world - I spy on my teenage son! So shoot me! (He would like to!) Our first computer was a Mac 6500/250 - bought when my children were in Elementary School - and by the way - it still surfs the net -running OS 8.0. Now the "smoking gun" Dell Male has all the kiddies hooked on Windows and us parents at home are forced to clean up all the "parasities" that so freely run rampant through these "computers!"
