Is there anyway to change the size on an application written in java? I mean for me as an user. Can a client change the size of an applet size? 190.60.93.218 ( talk) 14:16, 4 June 2012 (UTC)
After installing a Chrome extension (a search toolbar) I found it worked okay. I closed Chrome for a short while and when I tried to open Chrome, it wouldn't open no matter what I tried (shortcuts, going through Explorer (this is a whole story in itself), through Run etc). I searched Add/Remove programs for a way to remove the toolbar (as I installed it as an exe, it wasn't installed through Chrome) to no avail. At this point I tried to uninstall Chrome, but it wouldn't let me do that either (nothing happens). I did a manual uninstall from the registry as per the steps on the Chrome help site. I restarted my PC but Windows Update updated something or other in the process, and when my computer had rebooted completely I loaded my Windows profile and it had, stylistically, resetted to default settings. All my programs and data were still present, but the wallpaper, internet homepage etc. had reset back to the default Asus ones. In addition, whenever I browse through Windows Explorer it crashes and reboots, particularly if I try to backspace back in the navigation.
At this point I'm thinking I've installed some form of malware or virus, so I'm over halfway through a Malware check through Malwarebytes and nothing has been found so far. A virus scan will follow, but something tells me it won't return anything positive.
Does anyone have any ideas? I'm a little stuck here. I'm running a relatively new Win7 laptop.

This is a very simple question. I have a spreadsheet in MS Excel. I want to colour certain cells depending on the value in that cell. It's a spreadsheet of exam results. Let's say I want all of the cells with a mark x such that x ≥ 80% in them to be green, all those with 70% ≤ x < 80% to be yellow, all those with 60% ≤ x < 70% to be orange and all those with x < 60% to be red. What would I have to type in to Excel to make this happen? I've already got all of the names and marks in a two-way-table with the percentages calculated at the end of the row. I just need to get Excel to colour the cells using a given criterion. — Fly by Night ( talk) 21:50, 4 June 2012 (UTC)
