  • starting to see a lot of people using their phone for internet, so this comes in really handy. You can also use WSUS offline updater to download all these for you if you don't have a fresh install to steal from :)

  • @Rcountrycomputer I did that, and now I can't open programs, and stuff like that! And I even can't find the Internet options more!= What can I do

  • @ProgramNiceDownload

    Go to internet options in the control panel. Then click Advanced in the far right. Then at the bottom click the reset button. This will disable most of the addons. If you only have IE6 installed then download a program called safarp which is just like add and remove programs but with a search. Then search for the word toolbar and bar. And uninstall any that show up. Then try to open IE again. Or download and install 8 if you are on 6.

  • What can I do, if I can't open Internet explorer? It is crashing my computer EVERY single time I'm opening it!

  • Good info, but it's hard as heck to understand what you're saying. You say that some people say you talk too fast. That's not the problem. You mumble at a very low volume a lot of the time. If you'll speak up and keep the volume at a higher level, it will be a lot easier to understand you. Again, good info. Thanks.

  • man you have a bought version of windows?or a genuine activation?tell me!!

  • I didn't know that you could do this, Also I wanted to know how you made the self -extracting file. I always use WinZip to make one, but i was curious what you used. I'd like to say you seem to be the only techy on youtube I've seen that shows stuff others haven't, not to mention your videos are in HD and others are in extreme low quality. Your a good person. :D
