Someone Help Me !!!

[Aislin]

My net is freaking me out people!!!

I went to a google image search, and everything except the pictures showed up.

I go to kirupaforum, and all the links, and junk, except for buttons showed up.

I had to click intuitively just to post a thread, CAUSE THERE'S NO BUTTON!!!!

what's going on!?!!?!?

[Aislin]

I just went to the online page and it won't auto-refresh, either!!!

What the hell?????

[nobody]

u probably turned the images off in your browser.. go to the control pannel and search for somethin about displaying images

[Alex]

i would suggest running a anti virus program.

[eyeinfinitude]

Empty your internet temp folder and reboot.

[Alex]

haha i was way off. lol :trout:

[Aislin]

I'll do some of those things.
*searches for temp folder*

[nobody]

i suck at helping people
poo

[ahmed]

if youre on IE, go to Tools > Internet Options > Delete Files..

[Alex]

tools/internet options/delete them:smirk:

[Aislin]

HOLY MOTHER OF CHRIST!!!!

Yeah, so I did the files thing, and it took like 5 minutes. and now there's an extra gig of space on my hard-drive that came out of nowhere. Thanks electrongeek!!! YAY! *immediately begins downloading stuff to fill up that lonely piece of hard drive*

Anyways, I restarted IE and it seems to be back to normal, although I can type faster than the cursor now, but that might have something to do with my two messengers, adobe, kazaa, and 3 IE windows being open on 128megs of sdram. You know how it is.

[eyeinfinitude]

LMAO!!! you had a gig of internet files in your temp folder?!?!??! You never purge it or what!?!? You probably have files in there since the day you first started using the internet on that comp. haha =)

Exactly why I purge my files every night before I go to bed. I used to have the problem of never purging them and being stuck with a lagging browser and no space on my HD. Just became habit to empty it every night after that.

[eyeinfinitude]

Yeah same here, I purge it nightly now too. =)

[Alex]

i defrag every to days. i have a program called clean sweep, and i use that every day. and then i do disk clean up=)

[Aislin]

you laugh now, but I had... uh... temporary internet files from before... uh...

...since may last year, perhaps. I think i MIGHT have cleared them before. doubt it though.

[Aislin]

xp doesn't need to defrag... or so they say. ...by they I mean people that sold me it. Thankyou, wonderful people at the Brick, for advertising 20 gigs and giving me 18.

Alex, there's no need to defrag every two days, I defrag about once a month sometimes every 2 months.

[lostinbeta]

Same here Eg.

[Alex]

we have alot of things going on with this computer. alot of people use it, alot of d/ling, and plus me on it 24-7-365;) :P

[Aislin]

[Alex]

actually it's best to follow EG and lost's plan of once a month.
Both XP's and 2000's defrag tools are extremely powerful and
definitely work well. I highly recommend you spend some time
doing it each month.

[my MSCE 2000 says so ;)]

[Aislin]

thankyou, fluxinator3000. I'll try that out.

[UNFLUX]

well, don't take it like I'm telling you what to do, but honestly you
will notice a HUGE difference in load times, boot times, etc once
you've defrag'd. Especially after a month of heavy use, or never
at all, for that matter.

:cyborg:

[lostinbeta]

Yeah, system lag due to undefragging slowly creeps up on you so you don't really see it coming. Kinda like how you don't notice people growing taller because it is gradual.

Well once you defrag, you will remember what your system used to be like :P

[Aislin]

Heehee.

Sounds good. Love the footer.

....*steals*

[Marz]

Yeah man... seriously.. I empty my temp folder about once a week and I defrag and system check once a month..

If you defrag too often.. it'll screw up the hard drive quicker though.. All that moving of data and everything can hurt the little guy.... :)
