Is their any websites or something that can help me with spanish? I know some spanish, but not very much. Or if you want to help me and you can speak fluently that would be great! If you want to do that just answer this question saying so and I'll comment you back with my e-mail adress! I do have friends that speak spanish and can help me with pronounciation, but they told me to go learn more spanish before they will help me. So, I am not worried about pronounciation at the moment. I do know how to sound the words and read and write in spanish so thats not a problem. If you want to help me then do as I said email me and I will email you back what I know.

A few days ago I removed a virus I had on my computer. I don't know what I did, but a window popped up and I saw that my firewall was off? So I turned it on. Then the next day, I couldn't connect to AIM. and now I just realized that I can't connect to Yahoo, and Internet Explorer won't work either. :\ I have Vista, and the little weather gadget stopped working also. Everything worked fine before I tried to remove that virus. It's really frustrating me! Firefox still works though. I've tried adding the programs to the "exceptions" list in my firewall settings but it still won't work. I've tried restarting my computer too.... What's going on? Does this all have to do with Internet Explorer not working or something? I googled the Internet Explorer problem, and all I found were people saying to change the proxy/LAN settings or whatever, but I don't understand any of it. When I try to log into AIM, it says, "failed to connect to proxy server." I tried auto-configuring it but that didn't work. Yahoo says there's a problem with my internet connection, and my little weather gadget thing just says "service not available." And Internet Explorer just doesn't connect. :\
Can anyone help?
Go to [Start -> Run] (or press WinKey+R) and run this:
inetcpl.cpl
The Internet Properties window will open. Go to the "connections" tab and click the "LAN settings" button. In the window that opens, uncheck "Use a proxy server for your LAN". OK everything. It should now be fixed (a restart might be required).

I recently bought a 250GB external hard drive to back up my new laptop I bought for college. It's an HP with Windows 7, 64-bit, if that matters.
What's a good program that will make it easy for me to back everything up to my drive? I'd like it to update things already on the drive whenever I back thigns up, for example if it backs up my music folder I just want it to add all my new files, not a copy of everything I already had.
I would use the built-in Robocopy command-line utility. Use something like this:
robocopy /MIR /R:2 /W:5 /XJ C:\Users F:\backup
This will copy everything in C:\Users to the F:\backup folder. It will also delete files in F:\backup that are not in C:\Users. Paths with spaces must be surrounded by quotes. Files are not re-copied if they already exist in the destination. Files that are in use when you run Robocopy will not be copied, so close all programs while you run it.
Most people only have valuable data in C:\Users, but if you have room in your external drive, you might also want to get "C:\program files" and "C:\ProgramData". Just run Robocopy several times with the different directories, or put the several Robocopy commands in a batch file.
If you prefer a graphical interface, SyncToy is very similar:
http://www.microsoft.com/prophoto/downloads/synctoybeta.aspx
Put C:\Users on the left and F:\backup on the right (substitute your actual directories, of course). Deselect the "save overwritten files in the recycle bin" option.
You can use Cobian Backup if you want more advanced features like incremental backups:
http://www.educ.umu.se/~cobian/cobianbackup.htm
You MUST uncheck [Tools -> options -> engine -> include junction points]. Otherwise, some infinite-length paths will probably be copied, and they will be difficult to delete.

Please help! I need to email some photos to a company who are requesting the images need to be a resolution of 72 dpi and be saved at an image size of 1024 x 768 pixels, less than 1MB per
image.
I have no idea how to do this and have no real editing software, only microsoft office and paint. I need to do this today and i would really appreciate any help!
thanks

Use Irfanview:
http://www.irfanview.com/
Open the image in Irfanview. Go to [Image -> resize/resample]. Under "set new size", change the larger number to its target. For example, if the actual size was 4000x2000, change 4000 to 1024. Ensure that "preserve aspect ratio" is selected at the bottom (this makes the other number change automatically) and that the DPI is set to 72, and click "OK.
One of the dimensions is now exact, but the other one is probably not. The company probably doesn't require it to be exact, however. I would send it without adjusting it further.
You can make it exact by adding a border. This is done in [Image -> change canvas size]. If you modified the width, you will add a top/bottom border, and if you modified the height, you will add a left/right border. Get the correct border size by subtracting the target size by the inexact current size and dividing by two. For example, if your image is 1024x681, you need 87px of border (768-681), divided into 44px top and 43px bottom.
A better way of doing this if exact dimensions are required is to change the smaller number in "resize/resample" and then crop to the specified size.
This is difficult to explain in text, so I made you a video:
http://www.divshare.com/download/11347821-143
The crop method is shown first, followed by the border method.
Save by going to [File -> Save as]. Choose the "JPG" type with quality of 80% (in the small right window).
My contact info is on my column if you need help with this.

I'm trying to fix a problem with a friend's computer and I'm a little stuck.
Whenever he closes Internet Explorer he is unable to click on the desktop. Both right and left click are affected. Everything works fine at first. Even after he opens Internet Explorer he can still interact with items on the desktop. The problem only seems to occur after he closes it, at which point the cursor turns into an hourglass like it's loading something. This lasts for about half a second, then the problem occurs. He can still get to the start menu. Only the desktop is affected. Internet Explorer seems to be the only program that causes this problem, other programs close without any problems.
He's running Windows 7 64 bit. Aside from that I don't know the system specs but I can get them if necessary.
I've left a virus scan running but I'm not sure that that's the problem. If it's not a virus then I'm not what it might be. Does anyone have any ideas?
If you open task manager (ctrl+alt+del) and end explorer.exe, the clicking problem will usually be fixed until it happens again.
It's probably caused by an add-on in IE. Run this (start -> run):
iexplore -extoff
If that fixes it, disable add-ons one by one in [tools -> manage add-ons] until the problem is fixed.
If it's not an add-on, you could try resetting IE in [tools -> internet options -> advanced (tab) -> reset].

Area = Distance1 * Distance2;
else

}
}
}
can you tell me whats wrong with this
Use "double" or "int", not "double int". Since "nextInt" presumably returns an int, you should probably use that.
You shouldn't end "if" statements with semicolons. Even without the semicolon, the distanceX variables need to be defined BEFORE the "if". And the "else" is supposed to be after the "if". Probably you want something like this (starting at line 53):
Distance1=...;
Distance2=...;
Distance3=...;
Area=...;
//You wrongly used "distance 1" instead of a variable name below.
if(distance3>distance1...)
{
System.out.println("This is a rectangle.");
}
else
{
System.out.println("This is not a rectangle.");
}

What's a good, free program to convert FLAC files to mp3s that won't screw up my computer or give me viruses?
The best way is to use the standard command-line tools directly. Most graphical converters just deal with LAME and flac for you.
Decode the FLAC with the official tool:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/flac/files/flac-win/
Command-line:
flac -d -o out.wav input.flac
Then encode the WAV into MP3 with LAME:
http://www.rarewares.org/mp3-lame-bundle.php#lame-current
There are many command-line options, but this will give a good mix of size and quality:
lame -V2 --vbr-new input.wav out.mp3

How can I used Windows Media Player to convert mp3s into wav files?
I don't think you can. However, it can be easily done by opening the MP3 file with Audacity and then exporting as WAV.

The LAME command-line program can also do it (with --decode):

When I click on my Start button there is an option called Help & Support. When I click on it a message appears saying, "Windows cannot open Help and Support because a system service is not running. To fix this problem, start the service named "Help and Support."". How do I start this service so I can use Help & Support?
Help & Support is pretty useless, so I wouldn't bother.
Go to [Start -> Run] (or press WinKey+R) and run this:
services.msc
The service manager will open. Find the "help and support" service. Right click it and select "properties". Change the "startup type" to "automatic". You can also start it from here. Then OK everything.

You could also use CPU-Z.

Theymos,
Recently I've received a message saying that my layout does not display properly in some web browsers, particularly IE (the person did not provide the version of his IE). From his email, "[...] the center column appears below the two side columns in IE."
However, when I did a cross-browser test, with IE6 and IE7 environment, IE8, Safari 4, Firefox 3.6, Opera 10.50, and Chrome 4, I was not able to find any noticeable problem.
Could you please take a quick look and help me out? [Link: http://preview.tinyurl.com/ykw7ked ]
Thank you,

Try IE6 with low resolution.

IE6 doesn't handle overflow (and many, many other things) correctly. A long link broke your layout. Notice this comment in the layout you used:
elements within the mainContent div should be 300px or smaller (this includes images).
Use a different layout that can bypass this bug. A pixel-based one would be easier (that's what I use), but a percentage one is probably possible.
