I saved Eudora before deleting, and did put it back in the registry.
I'll reinstall it and follow your instructions.

Thanks Wiz

Wiz, I didn't remove Eudora. I installed it a month or so ago, because T-Bird wasn't working right at that time. T-bird finally got straightened-out, and I simply turned it back into the default email, but still left Eudora installed. Now Eudora keeps popping up when I don't want it to, so I'd just ...

Getting Rid of EUDORA via Registry

This morning I discovered that Eudora is still on my PC. It's been conflicting with T-Bird, so I tried to uninstall it, as usual, in Add/Remove. It didn't uninstall. After reading that other's have the same problem, I attempted to delete Eudora in the Registry. I deleted anything Eudora [Qualcomm] i...

Thanks Wiz. That's just the info I was trying to find. Once again Wizardo to the rescue. I thought I did see a 1.5A adapter in the 'stuff', but didn't check the volts or polarity. As long as it's the adapter that might blow and not the modem, heck, that's OK. I'll just keep it aerated and dust free....

AC Adapter Amp Output?

My brother-in-law gave me an almost brand new Motorola SB5100 Surfboard modem he hasn't used in years, but it came without the ac adapter. The SB5100 is exactly the one Comcast rents out of which I also have. [$7.00/mnth]. So I want to get my B-I-L's one going and give Comcast back their's. The rati...

Hats Off!

This time of year is as good as any to express my gratitude and praise to both Wiz and Jack Stoner. Wiz, being the master moderator, and Jack as a right-there contributor to help me [and many others here] to solve PC problems that always seem to be popping up; no matter the operating system.

Wiz, I guess you can close this if you want. My refund was deposited in my bank account from MJ; actually they only refunded the $80 sign-up, but not the $20 fee for phone# transfer. The phone# transfer was scheduled for Dec.20, according to an email from Vonage; but it's now Dec.22, and the transfe...

If not, then the temporary # Vonage issued me would then become permanent. So I tried MJ again, to see if I could get anywhere and to ...

Thanks Wiz,

I've seen the FCC recommended on some other sites. I was hoping for something a bit more agile; but, I will attempt to approach the FCC. I will report back here as to what transpired. May take awhile.

Vaulted

Bill, just what do you mean by "vaulted"?

It's a live rendition. Maybe Mcguinn and others weren't having such a hot night. I've been there and I'm sure you have.

But, as I read on, I was comforted to know that you did find some things redeemable in the Byrds's discography.

Wiz, All I know is what I read when CC got done finding those 3000MB files. I think they meant they were like empty shells, and left behind .dlls, from lots of software being installed/uninstalled over the years. A bit confusing, now. Why would they bother with empty folders? I know I come across 'e...

That's exactly what crossed my mind right away. Just had a hear it from real "anti's".

I used to use CCleaner quite awhile back. You turned me unto CC.

Then, I think, the over-all concensus became that all that Registry tweaking didn't help much, one way or the other.
