PC STUFF
(TO TOP) ^

PROBLEMS & SOLUTIONS - I'm starting this section because of a problem I've recently had and to help others who have pc issues:

SLOW PC!  
(TO TOP) ^

Of course there are hundreds of reasons why this might be the case, however I just wanted to mention that an often forgetten cause of slow windows can be a cluttered desktop!
(Incidentally, windows will load slower the more fonts you have installed)

Further info and what I've done so far:
General cleaning:
R removing unused software and files
Defragging
Registry Cleaning
Removing process' that don't need to run in the background
Changing what programs load on startup

NO FLASH?  
(TO TOP) ^

1. Websites with Flash content issue: Wasn't able to view flash content on various sites and got the their standard, 'please download the latest version of Flash player to view flash content' message.
Now, I knew I already had the latest flash player on my pc and even when I'd download it again, I still wasn't able to see flash and got the same 'please get flash...' messages.
After much grief, I realised it was because one of my pc 'cleaning' (specifically registry cleaners) programs was removing regsitry files needed for playing flash content.

FIX:

* DOWNLOAD A FLASH UNINSTALLER .(http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=tn_14157)
* USE IT TO COMPLETELY REMOVE FLASH PLAYER.
* REINSTALL FLASH PLAYER OFF ANY WEBSITE THAT PROMPTS YOU TO
. (MAY NEED RESTART)

TO STOP IT HAPPENING AGAIN: DON'T USE "RegScrub(XP)" - THIS SEEMS TO BE THE OFFENDING CLEANER. USE WINDOWS REG CLEANER OR GET "Easy Cleaner" (WHICH IS SO GOOD FOR MUCH MORE THAN REG-CLEANS AND IS VERY EASY TO USE!)
ONE SITE FOR "Easy Cleaner": http://personal.inet.fi/business/toniarts/ecleane.htm


OUT-GOING E-MAIL PROBLEM  (Eudora)
(TO TOP) ^

(I.e. RECIEPIANTS NOT RECEIVING SENT MAIL)
SPECIFICALLY TO Eudora 7 USERS, but is likely to occur with many e-mail programs that are basic/simple/freeware.

It took me over a week to find the cause of the problem and over 25 test e-mails, over 10 e-mails back and forth with Eudora helpdesk and 3 phone calls to my ISP (Iinet - who eventually helped me isolate the problem)

FIX:
DO NOT USE 'COMPLEX' CODE (HTML, DYNAMIC, STYLED TEXT ETC) IN YOUR SIGNATURE.

This will vary (I was able to have text links, and occasionally a linked image would work)...
The killer, for me, was the linked banner in combination with text and linked text in my signature.

TO STOP IT HAPPENING AGAIN: I now don't use Linked Images in my signature.

NOTES ON EUDORA 7 (PAID MODE):

EUDORA DOES NOT SUPPORT THAT KIND OF CODE IN SIGNATURES
(Even though they claim to! - The reason I baught 'Paid Mode' is specifically to include clickable banners in my e-mail signatures)

From Eudora tech support:
"That code is too advanced for Eudora - Eudora is not able to convert this type of code."

Incidentally, the code was very very basic HTML and nore does Eudora 7 have any way to edit the HTML of the e-mails you are composing.

I'd say spending over $20 to be able to use hyperlinked images in your signature and then NOT being able to do so makes Eudora a poor software provider!

Hope this will help any future Eudora user's headaches!

OUT-GOING E-MAIL PROBLEM #2

I was constantly getting the following error (which scared the shit outta me):

Could not open the file
C:\DOCUME~1\MARCTH~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\rr297E.tmp
Cause: No such file or directory exists. (2)

Turns out it was just a simple problem - a temp file which was related to an attachment for an e-mail which was queued to be sent had been deleted.

FIX:
Find the offending queued e-mail and change or delete it.
