Oh, I don't know then sorry. I'm not much of a computer expert:bawling:

LOL

The thing you need to change is called MSconfig. For XP users simply click Start>Run>Type in 'msconfig'. For Vista Start>Type 'msconfig' in the Start search box. A windows should pop up with tabs. One of those should say 'Start up'. Select that one. Locate the program that runs MSN and untick the box>Apply >close etc.

Some of the messages may be different from what I've posted but the principle is the same for all PC's

I've done it now and it's fine :D But thanks anyway guys.

What do people think of torrents? Are they dodgy enough to try and avoid or will they be fine most of the time?

depends what your downloading tbh

I was trying to download Football Manager, it has more "seeds" than "leeches" (whatever the hell that means) and most of the comments are positive. Should it be ok to download?

I've been using torrents for years, as long as you trust the site your downloading them from they are fine, private sites are the best though imo.

Were from?

Yes Seeds are good give it a try. :)

seeds are people who have downloaded it, and are sharing it, leachers are people currently downloading it

Oh right thanks :) I'll probably download a couple and see how it goes, they seem damn confusing to me though lol.

Thepiratebay.org it's called, dont know if you've heard of it? My friend said he's been using it for a while and he's never had any problems.

Torrents are fine as long as what you're downloading is quite well known and popular. If you're downloading some dodgy porn then you might be in trouble.

Torrents are great. I use them everyday. Just check the comments before downloading them.

piratebay is probably the most popular public torrent site out there.

Ah right thanks, should be pretty safe then :)

:whistle:

Here are some torrent sites that I use.

Check the comments for a torrent before you download anything, saves later problems or wasting your time.

Make sure you know how to convert, unpack or deal with what you will receive.

Dont forget to seed when your download has finished.

Good point

Seed yer Greed :D

:laugh:

Dont seed it slows down your broadband speed. :joker:

I only seed on sites where I have to maintain a ratio. On public ones? nope. The FBI or whatever can easily track you down.

It actually worked :D Thanks for the help everyone :wavey:

Where is the 'on' button?

Next to the 'OFF' button


:joker:

theres a small rectangular box in at the bottom and in the middle of my screen, it's white with a red cross in it, when i open another programme the white cross is is on top of it D:

whats wrong D:

aids

jesss heeelllpppppp

How do I get MSN back down by like the battery and everything again?

Like I can get onto it and that by using the start and it's right there but I want it back down there in the right corner -.-

Have you got a screenshot?

Right click it in start. Then choose to pin it to task bar.

LOL@the explanation but I understand what you mean. I think you're saying you've lost MSN from your system tray. You'll probably have to re-install it unless you know the application name and how to use msconfig.

Try re-installing and tell me what happens.

Yes. You can do this if you're running Vista or 7.

Stacey has vista, you stopped it from opening when you connect to the internet so that is why it's not there..

I don't even have that option :(

I'm not sure what a system tray is. But what I mean is along the bottom like by the date and time and everything down there. And I'm too scared to re-install because I don't think I'll ever be able to get it back, and I've never heard of msconfig or anything like that.

But thanks anyway, I'll just leave it where it is though, at least I can still use it :p

omgz, my laptop is just not wurking it Jessica! should I get rid?

But when it launches it should appear in the system tray right?

LMAO @ stacey. Wtf are you trying to say?

D:

It doesn't even matter really now.

I understand Stacey speak.

she wants a msn quick launch symbol on her bottom right task bar. Simple.

*runs in screaming*

Helppppppppp heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelp helllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllp hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhelp

Yes?
