1. Buy domain.
2. Set up *@domain to forward to your real email account, optionally apply a label (I do this with gmail labels)
3. Register with sitename@domain as email address.
4. Check real email and verify account.

Unique email for each site. No need to guess.

A bonus is that if you start getting spam you can see where it originated by what email it starts coming in on.

Updates in XP – just plain FUCK OFF in XP Pro.

Re: How to burn HP Recovery Disc without using Recovery Manager?
you can restore the MBR, the procedure is given below and then use the

Quote:
F11 key to restore your system completely. After that you can burn your recovery discs.

This procedure will perform a destructive restore ( delete all data on the hard drive). So make sure you backup your data before starting out.

The recovery partition is visible as

Quote:
D:
after a clean install. It may be another drive letter on your system so make sure you change it to D: . Explore this recovery partition, the files may be hidden so you may need to go to

Quote:
Tools > Folder Options > View >
, select

Quote:
show hidden files and folders
, and uncheck

Quote:
Hide Extensions for known File types
and uncheck

Quote:
Hide protected operating system files ( Recommended )
. Then you must be able to view a folder named

Quote:
miniNT
and inside this folder
Quote:
System32
.

Make sure you have two files inside the D:\miniNT\System32 folder, the first one

Quote:
MBRInst.exe
and the second one

Quote:
MBR.ini
now go to
Quote:
Start > RUN >
type
Quote:
D:\miniNT\System32\MBRInst.exe /ini D:\miniNT\System32\MBR.ini /r /q
and hit enter.

restart your system, your system will boot into recovery mode & resotre your system completely, after which you can create your recovery disks.

hope this helps

This jem is copied in case the original site goes tits up.

When booting off yoru USB stick it will hang at:
boot:
press the TAB key and type “live”
wait a long time
User = “eee” password is blank

hit the “install v4″ icon when you see it

When Leeenux starts, it may ask you for keyring password. Enter "2", and then do the following:
1. Open up your Home Folder
2. Press CTRL-H (or click View>Show Hidden Files)
3. Find a folder called .gnome2 (it has a period at the beginning of the name) and open it by double clicking on it
4. In side of the .gnome2 folder, there is another folder called keyrings. Open it up.
5. Delete any files you find within the keyrings folder
6. Restart the computer

Do above or you will have to keep entering your keyring to get remembered WiFi to work

There’s been a lot of talk about this renogade OEM Gigabyte mobo – maybe too much talk.
mobo GA-8SIMLNF R2

Ordinarily the Audio_Realtek_5.10.0.5628_XPx86_A.zip driver crashes out with this dialogue box:

updatedriverforplugandplaydevices failed
-536870397

Solution.
Get hold of the R111.zip from I cannot remember through the madness of it all!
Which essentially the same stuff

Google “sis drivers windows xp 7012″

Go to the XP directory
And edit the SIS7012.inf file

At the end of the [SIS] section
add to end:
%SiS7012.DeviceDesc%=SiS7012, PCI\VEN_1039&DEV_7012&SUBSYS_200B1631

The Hardware ID key was missing so the mobo motherboard sound chip is screwy.
