Here is a nice tech site to repair your Windows Xp Problems


Win Xp Service Pak 3

If your long waiting for the Windows Update to Service Pak 3.
You should wait another year longer. Now it's expected to be released in 2007.

It disappointing that with all that money they have in reserve. They can't get there product to perform well.
People should stop buying new Microsoft products until they get there priorities straight. They are selling you a product that is half finished and hardly works well.
You wouldn't go to a supermarket and buy a half eaten cake, when you could buy a complete cake. Don't be fooled. Stop the insanity now and let Microsoft know now that we are fed up of it's software.

Google Unwraps the Google Pack

Free Software Package Offers Users One Stop to Discover, Install and
Maintain a Wide Range of Essential PC Programs


CES, LAS VEGAS, Nev., January 6, 2005 - Google Inc. (NASDAQ: GOOG)
today announced Google Pack beta, a free collection of safe, useful
software from Google and other companies that improves the user
experience online and on the desktop. In just a few clicks, users can
easily discover, install and maintain software to surf the web faster
and safer, communicate better, and effectively manage information.

"We've heard from countless new computer owners that it can take
days or weeks to install all the software they need to make their
computer useful," said Marissa Mayer, VP of search products and user
experience at Google. "We developed Google Pack to give users a way
to painlessly install all the essential software they need -
pre-configured in a sensible way - in a matter of minutes. Better yet,
users don't have to keep track of software updates or new programs
- we maintain and update all the software for them."

Google Pack offers programs that meets Google's high software
standards and are considered best in their class, including:

· Adobe Reader 7
· Ad-Aware SE Personal

· Google Toolbar for Internet Explorer
· Mozilla Firefox with Google Toolbar
· Norton AntiVirus 2005 Special Edition
· Picasa
· RealPlayer
· Trillian


Google Pack also includes Google Updater, a new tool that intelligently
downloads, installs and maintains all the software in the Google Pack.
Google Updater alerts users when updates and new programs become
available and ensures each program is always up-to-date. Google Updater
can also be used to monitor the status of installation, run software
that's been installed, or easily uninstall software.

Users can easily select which programs they want to install. For
programs already installed on a computer, Google Updater checks whether
the latest version is running. If not, Google Updater will install the
latest version.

Every program included in the Google Pack is free, has earned a
reputation for excellence, and was evaluated to ensure it meets
Google's Software Principles. Google respects users' rights to
control their own computers and does not include software that is
spyware, generates pop-ups, or that is difficult to uninstall.

DSL Modem Trouble Shoot

This is one of my favorite PC Magazines and one interesting article came up on February 2006 issue that I never heard of before but it's one of those good ones.

The Problem:
DSL modem looses the internet connection for no apparent reason. The activity LED goes dark but the DSL indicator remains lit. And the telephone line at times you unable to get a dial tone. I am using the line filters that they recommend. What do you think the problem is?

Solution:
Everyone would assume it's the DSL modem. But there is no dial tone. The only possible solution is change the DSL line filter that goes to the phone which either had short circuited or failed. But this did require a phone call to the ISP.
