Do you have too many open tabs open in IE7?  Do you want an easier way to view all your open tabs?  Try this!  How about pressing Ctrl+Q.  This will give you a nice tiled thumbnail view of all your open tabs.  It sure beats clicking random tabs to get back to your desired website.  It can [...]

You might have noticed the message “Windows has blocked some startup programs” when using Windows Vista.  This is probably due to modifying startup programs using msconfig.  Normally, with other Windows versions, you would modify the msconfig, and after rebooting…a message box would appear on the screen saying something like “You have used System Configuration to [...]

They have finally added the menu option Add to Quick Launch!  This makes life much simplier…..well…..at least it saves me a few seconds at work.

I started off today facing reality, after my three-day weekend, and acknowledging I would have to return to work today.  I needed a pick me up and found this cool Windows Vista Gadget.  It’s a Dilbert gadget!  So instead of have having one of those little Dilbert calendars on your desk or having to fight [...]

 Log into server you want to shadow and issue gpedit.msc from command prompt.

I think it will be Green Bay versus New England.  I think Green Bay can beat New England as long as Favre is consistent (in a good way) and NOT throwing picks.

The seagals never seem to disappointment me!  After another failed attempt, the seahawks’ season has come to an end.  I almost shed a tear at the end of Saturday’s games when the Green Bay Packers annihilated the seahawks…..not because I felt sorry for the seahwaks but because they…well…..they suck. hahahahaha  I love it!

I also enjoyed all [...]
