Questions about privacy and security when you use Safari for Windows
I have Itunes + Quick Time Player installed to download music and some time ago I had the opportunity to download Safari for Windows. I used it a few times, just out of curiosity, and I noticed that it is much faster than IE7, so I plan to use it regularly, but before that, I have a few questions:
-someone at - it tested (or uses) Safari for Windows, and what are your results?
-What is save to use as Firefox or Opera, both recommended as alternative by our experts at the HijackThis forum?
-the programs that I installed (Online Armor firewall, AVG 8.0 suite, MBAM with protection in real time enabled RogueRemover Pro with immune protection enabled, WinPatrol, SpywareBlaster) offer the same protection when you use Safari for browsing?
Thanks a lot already for your answers, Advisor or thoughts on this issue.

Message box color settings disabled when you use the dialog "Windows color and appearance".
When you use the configuration dialog box 'Window color and appearance', why are there color settings invalid? I want to remove the default 'Pastel Pink' value that I find unacceptable.
I can switch to "Classic Windows" that uses no pastel pink color, but "Classic Windows" does not support "Aero Peek", and the windows look pretty tired. You can only take "Classic Windows" for many years.
Color settings are disabled for: buttons, Message box, title of Palette, scroll bar.
Help, please!
Me too I'm frustrated by that. Found the old windows with very honest XP environment. I used the advanced settings, but has not found a way to save the changes with a label, so I knew that the changes you made. It is just Frigging trial and error and very frustrating.
Why are there no way to return either to the default value (not found a default label) or save the settings changed under a name? It is a productivity KILLER.
Hello
Interface user of Windows 7 is theme based. The colors are defined by the theme.
You still have many color options that can be used to change the colors.
Right click on the desktop and select Personalize. Click on the color of the window at the bottom of the window box.
You can select one of the colors in the boxes colored at the top.
Adjust the intensity of the color with the cursor.
Click on the color down mixer and you can a lot of variations on all the different color choices.
I hope this helps.
Thank you for using Windows 7

How can I keep my current theme when you use the private window
I went from using a complete theme for just a regular theme (one is no longer compatible with the 40.0.2 full update). When I open a private window I am presented with the default theme of Firefox with no way to change to one of the other themes that I try to apply. Is there something that I am missing, or was it a change that has taken place through many updates for Firefox, while I was still using the complete theme? I would like to use the theme on windows normal and private is it possible?
Sorry, it's a 'function' private browsing and using a light theme. PB takes the default theme. Been like that for quite some time now - as can be as far as Firefox 29, 30 or 31.

Firefox redirecting not when you use the script Window.Print
Have a simple java script on a Web page to display the print dialog box before the redirection to another page.
< a onclick = "javascript:window.print()" href ="Screen.php" > print, and continue < /a > "
When the print dialog box will appear if you print it does not redirect but remains on the page. If you cancel printing, it will go ahead and redirect to where it is supposed to go. Worked fine before the last update I was wondering if there was a work around for this or if anyone was aware of this.
The inconsistency is confusing. If you change your onclick to the following code, you can see a difference of synchronization in the appearance of the confirm dialog box which may be related to the problem. Maybe printing went from synchronous to asynchronous and now the navigation is attempted at a time when it is not allowed?
onclick="window.print(); if(!confirm('Finished printing?')) return false;"

Close and minimize/maximize buttons disappear when you use a theme (Windows 8).
I have no idea why he did this. I have all the Windows updates and the latest version of Firefox as well. Please report if you have a solution or get to work for then and know if/when this will be fixed.
It works OK with the default theme, or who suffers as well in maximized mode?
Change the Windows theme has an effect any?
Toggles the false browser.tabs.drawInTitlebar on the topic: config page has an effect any?

Weird problems when you use Word 2000
Several strange with Word 2000 - the cursor events suddenly jumps a line or two or a form letter one and three appear, or next page results in the racing at the end and again very document, today I hit remove to delete a word in the middle of a doc or delete through uncontrollable overall edocument, erasing in the end help! It comes to my work here. I can't afford to lose this kind of things.
Is this a problem with the OS (XP pro)? Or a driver?Gavin Kilty
Hello
It looks like s of a keyboard failure or a cable loose keyboard. Think the best way is to contact the keyboard replacement service, or you can try to use an external USB keyboard.
Good bye

No sound when you use Slingbox on Windows VISTA
I have audio on all other applications: DVD, online, Skype, etc. However, no noise no using the Slingbox Solo, which came with a WIndows XP CD, is recognized even if SLingbox works perfectly a look of the video. Cables have been checked; have reinstalled Slingbox; tried Slingbox.com and Slingplayer... no sound.
Even a new sound driver is necessary? Any ideas would be really appreciated.

Hello Woodmaven,
If other applications work correctly, the problem may be related to the Slingbox. You can see the below article I found on the support Web site.

Download updates for
There was a problem with that caused it to stop working correctly.
Your computer may run out of updates that can help improve its stability and security.
Go online to search for and install the Important updates and recommended.
In the left pane, click check for updates. If updates are found, click view available updates.
Select all important updates and then click install. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
Note
If you have activated the automatic update, you can not see important updates listed. If this is the case, the updates have already been downloaded to your computer.
I am aware of the windows updates.
Try to compact and repair the database and see if it suits it. See www.oehelp.com/WMUtil/
Also be aware of the problems caused by the installation of IE9: see www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#15
And beware of interference antivirus. See point 3 on this page as well.

How can I change spacing of double room to single space?
I tried. I changed the line spacing of 1.5 to 1, but it made no difference. I also highlighted the text and hold the Ctrl and 1 keys at the same time, as suggested elsewhere. None of these things worked. My laptop runs Windows 8 operating system. What now?
