Q: i need help right now ! theres this toolbar called mirar at the top of my internet explorer and its says gay and lesbian stuff and my dad has to get on the computer i want it gone NOW !! i right clicked and told it to go away how can i get rid of it for good !!
ill rate 5's!!!!!!!!!!!!
Go into your system registry and delete it from there. Download Process Explorer and find the toolbar program. Suspend it and click on properties and get the place where the file is. Delete it from there. Download and run Hijack This. While you're at it run spyware scans(I recommend Spybot and Ad-Aware). Remember that not every spyware scanner will find the same spyware. Same with virus scanners... you might want to run a virus scan or two aswell. Oh and one more tip... get a decent internet browser. I suggest Mozilla Firefox. You won't have this problem of thousands of spyware toolbars and the like.. and there are many other benefits. Oh yea, and go into your C-Drive from My Computer: go to Program Files and delete anything to do with this Mirar thing. And go to Common Files and delete anything to do with it.

Q: why do people like to follow fashion trends?
The truth is the majority of people who claim to not follow the popular trends (usually referring to 'prep') and stuff like that usually do follow trends... they are usually the kind who think that bands like Fall Out Boy are 'emo' (don't get me wrong, I like FOB but they aren't emo..) and follow all the online trends on MySpace and Xanga or 'ElJay' and the like... they'll probably switch to next year's big thing when it's not cool to be 'scene

Q: hey i am new to myspace so i dont really know what im doing....well i have my background and everything eles i want except for my picture.I know how to do it but it either says its too big or not the right type.if anyone knows how to do it that would be great.if you give me your email adress i could send you my picture and mabye you could help me or something..thanks to anyone who trys to help
Well first of all make sure your picture is in either .jpg .jpeg or .gif format. Right click on the picture and go to the properties and it should tell you. If it is a different format then you will need a program to change the file format with. If you have an image editing program (you can use MS Paint) then open your image with the program and click on 'Save As' below where you type the name of your image there will be a drop down box from which you can choose a file format to save it as. Just click the drop down box and choose either .jpeg .jpg or .gif

Secondly your picture maybe too large in size. Find out what the maximum image size is and look in your image properties and find out the size. If it is too large you might have to resize it. Again, using a program such as MS Paint or Adobe Photoshop open the image and on image size change it. Or you can drag the corners of the image and make it smaller that way. Then click save or Save As.

Finally, there will be a maximum file size. I think it is something like 600KB. Go on the image's properties and find out the size. If it is bigger than this then you might want to make the image's size smaller which will make the file size smaller.

Q: Whenever i try to click on a folder or file on my desktop, such as "My Computer", it doesnt do anyhting, even when i right click and press Open. It temporarily shows the timer sign with the arrow, but thats it. I also cannot open a folder from the start menu. However, i still have access to the internet when i click on it. When i restart the computer, i once again have access to the folders, however, after a while the same problem occurs. Is there a problem with my computer and there somehting i can do about this?
Spyware or a virus maybe. Run spyware scans (I recommend SpyBot and Ad-Aware SE Personal) and remember it's always best to use more than one program as not all programs will find the same virus. And run a virus scan or two. Make sure your definitions files are up to date.

Q: okay when i use microsoft word sometimes and i want to go add a word between 2 words it like goes over the 2nd work

example:

i want cheese pizza
i want morese pizza

^ thats what it does

how do i turn this off? like i was typing a paper and it just starting doing this halfway through my paper and it is driving me crazy
The usual keyboard shortcut to this is 'Insert'. I often press 'Insert' accidentally therefore turning this setting on. So watch when you're typing that you don't accidentally press the key to turn this setting on.

Q: does anyone know how to get rid of the virus thats spreading through AIM because I have it and I got a new screen name and the virus went to that one to ! so if you know PLEASE tell me !
i rate 5's
First run virus scans with a few programs as not all programs find all virus's. If the virus scans can't get rid of it go to a search engine like Google.com and search for the name of the virus or 'aim virus' or something like that and see if there are any websites with tutorials to getting rid of the virus. There might be one somewhere which tells you what to delete from your system registry. Or go into your task manager (or even better, download Process Explorer) and end anything which looks suspicious. If you use Process Explorer you can suspend the process and go on it's properties and get the file path to it therefore you can go there and delete it from your hard drive. If you can find out the files to do with the virus and where they are on the hard drive you can go into the system registry and delete the files. Be careful you don't delete anything important though!

Q: I LOVE music but i need something new to listen to what are some good bands??

You might want to try looking for bands on MySpace.com or Purevolume.com. You might find a little-known band you like.

Some bands I've been listening to lately are;

Brand New
Fenix TX
