At least WinMe lets you repair it... Most of the service calls I've answered for Me systems have been resolved by restoring previous configurations. It took Microsoft until WinXP to make creating restore points automatic; any tech could have told them that users won't do this manually, but they never asked us. Fortunately I've trained my customers to be smarter than the average user.:-D Some people think of it as a six-pack; I consider it more of a support group.

Thanks a lot! That is one cool tool, and if you see my reply to Shog, you can see how I got it to work. :) Chris Richardson

That's kind of interesting, in that the "middle class" was only 25 or 30 years old 40 years ago. Henry Ford invented the middle class 75 or 80 years ago to expand the auto market. Tom Wofle has an entirely different perspective. This is an excerpt from his 2000 book called "Hooking Up": ________________________ "By the year 2000, the term "working class" had fallen into disuse in the United States, and "proletariat" was so obsolete it was known only to a few bitter old Marxist academics with wire hair sprouting out of their ears. The average electrician, air-conditioning mechanic, or burglar-alarm repairman lived a life that would have made the Sun King blink. He spent his vacations in Puerto Vallarta, Barbados, or St. Kitts. Before dinner he would be out on the terrace of some resort hotel with his third wife, wearing his Ricky Martin cane-cutter shirt open down to the sternum, the better to allow his gold chains to twinkle in his chest hairs. The two of them would have just ordered a round of Quibel sparkling water, from the state of West Virginia, because by 2000 the once-favored European sparkling waters Perrier and San Pellegrino seemed so tacky. European labels no longer held even the slightest snob appeal except among people known as "intellectuals," whom we will visit in a moment. Our typical mechanic or tradesman took it for granted that things European were second-rate. Aside from three German luxury automobiles -- the Mercedes-Benz, the BMW, and the Audi -- he regarded European-manufactured goods as mediocre to shoddy. On his trips abroad, our electrician, like any American businessman, would go to superhuman lengths to avoid being treated in European hospitals, which struck him as little better than those in the Third World. He considered European hygiene so primitive that to receive an injection in a European clinic voluntarily was sheer madness. Indirectly, subconsciously, his views perhaps had to do with the fact that his own country, the United States, was now the mightiest power on earth, as omnipotent as Macedon under Alexander the Great, Rome under Julius Caesar, Mongolia under Genghis Khan, Turkey under Mohammed II, or Britain under Queen Victoria. His country was so powerful, it had begun to invade or rain missiles upon small nations in Europe, Africa, Asia, and the Caribbean for no other reason than that their leaders were lording it over their subjects at home. Our air-conditioning mechanic had probably never heard of Saint-Simon's, but he was fulfilling Saint-Simon's

Being a geek sometimes has a downside, but... I had to check my Appendix B in my copy of The Return of the King. In the rekoning of Gondor, Third Age 2968 Birth of Frodo 2983 Birth of Samwise 3018 September 23 Frodo leaves Hobbiton Therefore, Frodo is 50, Sam is 35. According to Appendix C: Shire Rekoning 1382 Meriadoc (The Magnificent) Brandybuck 1390 Peregrin (I) Took As Shire Rekoning begins in 1600 on the Gondor Calendar, Merry is 36, Pippin is 28. As if that weren't enough, Frodo and Samwise leave the company on Feburary 26, 3019, which puts the original question into context. α.γεεκ Fortune passes everywhere. Duke Leto Atreides

If the gateway IP is set to the local port of the router, and the XP box is on the same subnet, IE should have no trouble connecting. In Tools/Internet Options/Connections, there should be no connection information. Click on LAN Settings, and make sure that no boxes are checked - the Automatic and Proxy options will interfere with the box working properly, in particular. I haven't used the Home version - it's so badly crippled it isn't worth considering - but I'd also suggest that you review permissions for the user account. There may be a new one that restricts access to the Internet. Also, many OEMs preconfigure Windows with what they think most users will want. If yours has ICS installed and it's not acting as the gateway for your network, get rid of it, along with that stupid excuse for a firewall that comes with it.

Yeah, cameras definaly rock, but there's so many other things I need to spend money on (like US$1100 on big tires), that it's hard to justify spending much on a camera.
