What you get for $5

Bill Clinton is out jogging around in some of the seedier areas of Washington, D.C. He notices a good looking prostitute. She sees him and calls out:
Fifty dollars! He is tempted, but the price is a little high.

So he calls back: Five!

She is disappointed and turns away and Bill continues his jog.

A few days later, he finds himself jogging in the same area and as luck would have it, the prostitute is still there. But she will not come down on her price.
Fifty! she shouts and Bill answers her:
Five! Still no sale.

About a week later, Hillary has decided that she wants to get into shape so she demands to go jogging with Bill. They get to the seedy part of town and the same prostitute is still there.

She eyes Bill and Hillary together and yells: See what you get for five dollars!

i guess Kayak is the man,sorry should not laugh at problems like that but i did find it funny the way you said it:-)

what do you mean auto entry it keeps going to the naughty website instead of your home page is that what you are on about ????

Mega...

no not getting that anymore -thank god.
Just thought would delete all entries that are in the address bar at the top on IE and disable autoentry so as to give it a spring clean as it were.

zarif: Tools/Internet options/Clear History. That will remove them, not sure you can disable auto-entry as you call it, but try Tools/Internet options/Content/Auto Complete and untick Web Addresses.

Hi All, there are some really bad hijacks arround at the moment coolsearch is one of them, they dont just come from sex sites either. The forum I posted above has a lot of info on dealing with them but some are very very difficult to get rid of.

many thanks everybody -more cleaner than the local launderette.And i have taken my celibacy vows not to hit the Flash quotes button and go for pope next year.

tks

I have a Toshiba laptop and the hard disk is starting to fail (again).

Does anyone know if I have to fit a Tosh replacement or will any 2.5" drive work?

If they are all standard what is the most reliable make these days?

Optimist, I cant answer exactly but many if not most laptops use standard hard drives however they then fix them into non standard cradles. So you may well be able to change it with another hard drive from another maker, I would take the machine apart and have a look.

Incidentally hard disks are more likely to fail on laptops because they tend to get moved around more as well as being dropped every now and then, the hard drives in laptops try and make allowances for this by being slower! however I know from bitter experience looking after many thousand of them that they still fail fairly often.

Spaceman

Thanks for that info I've had a look and it looks as though it's standard so I've ordered a standard one. I don't know what make it will be but anything has got to be better than Toshiba. My laptop does not have a hard life except for being left on all the time this is the second disk that has failed after less than a years (almost) continuous use.

Do you know of any way to mount a laptop drive in a standard PC in order to copy the disk image to the new disk?

BTW Thanks for your post re Concorde it enabled me to switch on Sky News to see the final take off. Very Sad.

can any one help on how to run 2 monitors of 1 computer, was thinking of trying to link 2 computers to run of my broadband line,but first option would be better.l.l.
