So, I used to use the Mozilla search engine bar all the time, having added a lot of good ones. But one day, I found they were all gone. I can go to the "Add engines" link on the bar, which takes me to their page. But when I click on one, it asks me if I want to add it, I say ok, and it doesn't get added. The Javascript console says
Error: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80570016 (NS_ERROR_XPC_GS_RETURNED_FAILURE) [nsIJSCID.getService]" nsresult: "0x80570016 (NS_ERROR_XPC_GS_RETURNED_FAILURE)" location: "JS frame :: file:///C:/Program%20Files/Mozilla%20Firefox/components/nsSidebar.js :: anonymous :: line 174" data: no] Source File: file:///C:/Program%20Files/Mozilla%20Firefox/components/nsSidebar.js Line: 174
I've tried re-installing Firefox, but it doesn't work. Does anyone know what's gone wrong, and how I can fix this and get my search bar back? - LtNOWIS 00:54, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
Whenever someone prints out a hard copy of a hotmail, the bottom of the page has, for example, a string of letters and numbers like this:
Http://by119fd.bay119.hotmail.msn.com/cgi-bin/getmsg?=5A6F0A5E-9874-4958-…
How much about the email is obvious from the address? Can you prevent this from being printed when you print the rest of the email? Is any part of it a code?
Thank you to any and all who wish to answer this for me, especially if you can give examples.

I have a dlink dsl-g604t modem/router connected to an adsl conection. recently i churned to a new isp (WiltIT) and found that although i could access the internet through the wireless connection, i could not access it from a desktop connected to the router directly by an ethernet cable. Before the churn i was able to access both ways with no problems. how can i get the desktop to access teh internet through the cable? 02:36, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
Howdy, fellow Wikipedians! I'm having a puzzling problem working with wireless networking. I've got an Acer Aspire 5000, which has a Broadcom 802.11g network adapter, and I'm running XP Service Pack 2. I'm able to find wireless networks, and the connection process partially works, but I'm unable to actually connect to the networks. I don't actually know exactly how long this has been a problem, or what I did that could have caused it as I infrequently use wireless, but I'm spending a few days at my mother's house, and I'd like to use her network. (Which is working properly -- I'm posting this on her computer -- and I have the password for, etc. I've logged in here before. I've also logged in previously on unsecured networks, but can't now, so I don't think it's her security.) What happens, step-by-step as I attempt to "repair network connection", it disables and re-enables my adapter, and connects, but it has problems renewing the IP address. It reports the network connection details with a physical address and IP address, a subnet mask of 255.255.0.0 and blanks for default gateway, DNS server and WINS server. I've searched the Acer site; they have a simple guide that covers everything I've already done, and according to them, I have the most recent driver (3.100.46.0, which I can't roll back, so I assume it was factory installed). I can't do a system restore, because my restore points don't go back far enough. (Only a month, and I know I had the problem a couple of months ago). Any suggestions, requests for more info, etc. would be gratefully appreciated. Thanks! -- ByeByeBaby 02:44, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
I got an old thinkpad for free and I'm having trouble with it overheating after a couple hours of use (plugged in). The fan works fine, though it doesn't seem to help much. I've already elevated it, and I use it in a rather breezy place, but is there any half-assed solution that I can pull out of a dollar store to help me get a few more hours of constant use out of it? I'm thinking along the lines of putting it on a cushion of styrofoam, tilting it at a 20 degree angle, etc. freshofftheufo ΓΛĿЌ 04:19, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
Styrofoam isn't a good choice, as it's a thermal insulator. Instead, place it on metal "rails", so that air can pass underneath it, then point a fan at it. The metal will also help to draw away some heat. Old metal stacking inboxes might work well. StuRat 21:12, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
Hi all. I'm creating a document in latex and I wanted to create a section that didn't have a number (ie. one that said "Introduction" instead of "1. Introduction). I used the \section*{}
command I found on the web, but the problem with that is that it doesn't add that section to the table of contents. So I was wondering if there was anyway to have a non-numbered section that also appears in the contents. I am using the "article" document class. Thanks -

, of course!) Of course, a static synchronized
method just synchronizes on the Class

public ExampleClass() {synchronized(getClass()) {noteInstance();} /*...*/}
ExampleClass

object being constructed simultaneously. (Rainwarrior: it would be useless to make the constructor a monitor in the method sense, because each constructor call would lock a different object.) --

I'm fairly new at using linux and I had a question. What is the command for reading input from a specified source on a filesystem and outputing it to standard output in linux? Specifically, I wanted to read a number of random bytes from /dev/random and printing it to the console. Oskar 18:47, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
cat
- so you could say cat /dev/urandom
. But urandom is a binary device, so it'll chuck out a bunch of nonprintables that will probably drive your terminal insane. You could use od to turn it into something legible: cat /dev/urandom | od
, which you can simplify to just be od < /dev/urandom
