Learned something new this week

This past week I was experimenting on how to save multiple emails all together.  If there is a subject or threads of discussions you find them and save them and they are all saved in one text document. I think it may save on document making and memory and stuff like that.

Had a couple of updates this week

There were five window updates last week having to do with windows and various aspects.

today had java update and made my computer a little wonky but it seems to be doing okay now.

should I be concerned

I just caught this entry from Google Mail to keep their members informed about changes to the email programs that they use (that includes me).  I don’t use the web base unless I am out of town or at work.  I usually use MS Outlook.  So the only way I would notice the updates or changes is if I went to the website.

The only other concern I am still having is the grey streaks on the monitor when the monitor is on power down/screen saver.   It occasionally takes a couple of minutes and the gray area with streaks (it makes me think the monitor is dying) shows up.

surprised

the speed of the computer has maintained at 36 mps and and occassionally at 54 and 48.

It is true

Well I just pulled my CPU Tower out from under the desk.  I have it in front of the desk drawers and I really don’t know how long that will last but as Don had said the Speed and signal strength is much better.  I am just afraid that in my moving around I will knock it off and break it.  I think I can move it to the side of the desk by the window.  I can do it tomorrow.

I have gotten a few High CPU use from Norton.  I think it may have happened twice today.  I am not really worried about it.  I should probably click on the link and see what it says I should do.

Wow just went to Facebook and man it was fast…Definitely need to move the tower from under the desk.

It is never easy

Mom spent the better part of the afternoon with cablevision/Optimum to set up her email.  She feels she isn't getting it and they todl her she is.   I tried to access my email (didn't really register yet) but Bob got the router yesterday and says that I will hve to sign in with the password he gave me (no I won't share it) but I htink he may have left out some information.  I tried it and don't have an email account.   I asked Mom if I have to sign on under her email or account or what.  We are both too tired tonight to figure out what we are doing wrong.

we are now part of

Optimum online...had to get a new router (the first one was wrong)....Bob put a new one on today...so I am reconnected but the speed and signal strength still very poor as far as I am concerned.  I may have to do what Donny suggested. 

He had suggested I move the tower around and see if it is stronger.

this heat must be doing things to the servers because I can't access a number of websites.  Its frustrating.  I made sure I checked  cords and everything.

Things running pretty well

Had a Norton Security newsletter pop up last night.

Gmail is revamping their mail server.  You can read about it here.  Noticed it sometime over the weekend.  To be honest doesn't look any different then before.

today's message

I got a weird message today.

I did the test and this was the message at the end :

• Your system will continue to work for you on World IPv6 day. However, we found that you only have IPv4 at this time. You'll simply continue to use IPv4 to reach your favorite web sites.
• What is IPv6 and why is it necessary?
• What is World IPv6 day?
• Will IPv6 become a permanent change on June 8, 2011?
• What other companies are participating in World IPv6 day?

BTW, if anyone in Blogger Univese is reading this I really am getting annoyed that I am not being kept logged in everytime I move to another blog or something.  Its freaking annoying. 

Your system will continue to work for you on World IPv6 day. However, we found that you only have IPv4 at this time. You'll simply continue to use IPv4 to reach your favorite web sites.

here is the info on IPv4

highlights

Ghost Image done and so is Integrity check both were successful.

Found out Mom pulled out wires with foot at one point during the weekend she had to reset.

Tonight the network went down again Mom reset it.  This is getting to be a problem.  AT&T should not being doing this-we have DSL..I really wish we had another service or separate.  I am sick and tired of watching the network and the connection indicator go down so low.  I couldn't get on for nearly two hours.
