MissAshley Posted July 25, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2004 It's just easier for me because I can't type that well, but if you guys prefer I won't do that either, I just graduated high school in June, mostly four years of writing papers, so when I don't have t worry about punctuation and stuff, it just flows easier, but if it bothers you guys I won't post in caps anymore when I do post :eek4: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you use I.E. as your internet browser it has so holes and security flaws in it that there is a possibility that it could be possible; incidentally Microsoft have patches on their website to fix some of these security flaws - labelled as "critical". See search.microsoft.com/search/results.aspx?st=b&na=90&View=en-us&qu=internet+explorer for more. If you use Outlook on your computer for your emails then that is another gateway for people to access your computer (I won't go into details, but it's a sad result of Microsofts popularity that people target these. Also, as it's inbuilt into the OS it only makes it easier). For emails, if you have a free hotmail account or something that you access via Outlook then go to the website and log in there where it should work alright for you. And yes it is to do with your hard drive, everything on your computer can be found there. Oh and I appreciate you giving us the heads up all the time; I can never remember to check these sites until someone posts about it. I think many people just find capitals annoying because it makes it more difficult to read. :dancingcool: Edited July 25, 2004 by Prince Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Prince Posted July 25, 2004 Report Share Posted July 25, 2004 Oh and also (again, I don't want to start anything by saying this but I'm going to keep it real with y'all and be honest), if we're going to get picky about how people type then I might get picky about how people constantly use abbreviations instead of typing out the full word. All I'm saying is, you have to accept how people want to type. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MissAshley Posted July 26, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2004 It's cool it'll just take me twice as long to type , I'll just be a little slower with it, and two of my uncles are computer whizzes/ techincians(whatever you want to call it) and they've taken classes and read books about it so the problem can be fixed it'll just take a while because my hard drive is only a few months old and there may be numerous viruses on it. One of them is the Spyware virus and I've tried to use the sites that help clear the virus but this computer always freezes up, just like it did about five minutes ago when I checkin' out some posts here.... don't worry I'm not going anywhere, I love this site(forum)too much it's the #1 Will Smith source for me, I just won't post alerts to pics(w/o links) anymore because I didn't realize it was so annoying for so many people...I didn't think it was that serious, or about typing in caps either, but maybe it's just me :), I just get excited when I see Will and I want to share when I can...but like I said it's cool I also type in all caps because I 'm farsighted and my glasses are broken so it's easier for me too see without straining, I know what you're thinking use larger text, but the bold print just works better for me ( deep breath) I hope I answered everyone's questions :) ...THANX FOR THE TIPS YOU GUYS, REALLY APPRECIATE IT!!!! :thumb: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazzy Julie Posted July 26, 2004 Report Share Posted July 26, 2004 lol ok the abbrieviations is me too, i know what you mean about the viruses though, i had one for about 3 months, i have only just finally got rid of it, but please keep posting because your links are helpful!! That was so difficult to type a whole paragraph without using an abbrieviation, i can see this lasting about a day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Prince Posted July 26, 2004 Report Share Posted July 26, 2004 The easy way to get rid of everything that may be lurking on your hard-drive... This is the most extreme... Make sure everything you care about on your computer and want to keep is backed up on CD... Then just format the hard-drive... Wipes everything. I had to do that a few years back when I got one that spread itself everywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Prince Posted July 26, 2004 Report Share Posted July 26, 2004 Oh, and Julie what I meant was that if people were going to complain about people typing in capitals, then I might complain about them not typing properly either. I don't mind, it's cool... It just seems a bit hypocritical that's all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Prince Posted July 26, 2004 Report Share Posted July 26, 2004 willjadafan, there is a text zoom option in one of the menus that you can select which will automatically make the text much larger so it is easier to see. In Netscape its under the View menu called Text Zoom, and in IE its under the same menu, but called Text Size. Good luck. I know what you mean about sight, I'm short sighted and if I don't have my contacts in then I have to be about 20cms away from the computer screen before anything comes into focus.

Da Brakes Posted July 26, 2004 Report Share Posted July 26, 2004 Yeah stay around!! I'd rather know about Will Smith Pix and where i can find them, rather than not know at all! :thumb: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WildWildWillennium Posted July 26, 2004 Report Share Posted July 26, 2004 Well excuse me Prince, I didn't mean 2 be hypocritical. But in my defense, complaining about caps and typing in abbreviations are 2 different things. I'd be a hypocrite if I were 2 type in caps myself, because that's what I complained about.

Guest Prince Posted July 26, 2004 Report Share Posted July 26, 2004 True point noted, but in the long run it all equates to typing in general. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
