hi everyone i am new to this hope soon i could offer some great idea.
but now it’s December and pretty soon it will be Christmas. This is the
month of giving, of sharing, and of forgiving ones’ mistakes and
forgetting ones’ grievances. This is also the time to be with our
families, with our loved ones.

Thanks. However, this is a public newsgroup for technical support and not a
social site. You've made that mistake because you think you're posting on a
forum and you're not. You're using a web interface that leeches Usenet
newsgroup posts. The majority of the people using the newsgroups use
newsreaders to access Usenet and therefore don't see what you do. You would
be far better off to set up a newsreader, which is very easy to do. Here's
general information for you:

Since you are using the web interface, you may not realize that this is
really a newsgroup. You will get far more out of this resource if you learn
to use a newsreader. There are many good newsreaders for Windows, but you
can use Outlook Express (XP) or Windows Mail (Vista) since you already have
it. Here are some links to information about newsgroups:

along with their technical interests, I recommend ComputerHaven, a warm and
friendly forum.

Thank you both. I'm not always as nice as I should be, but your kind words
will act as a reminder to me to Be A Person. Wink
