If Microsoft are successful in buying Yahoo what will happen ?
1 I will quit answers , im not being fickle but arent Microsoft already controlling enough of our online entertainment ?
2 why can't they get Yahoo outta trouble ...Yahoo are losing tonnes of money and Microsoft are in a position to "HELP)
3 when will Microsoft learn that buy and control is not the way to make friends ! ( as though the company hasnt made enough enemies already) !
your thoughts please , dont slam me for my thoughts and I wont slam you for yours :)
peace be with you
Bye bye "microsoft" answers ?
i agree, yahoo answers is great and i would be so angy if they took over it
Reply:Yes, we all like Yahoo
Reply:i imagine any site this for example ~that is popular will other than more advertising remain the same ,,
Reply:You know they'll probably just leave Yahoo Answers as it is. Whatever do you think Microsoft would change about it?
Reply:I agree with all that you say. It's a freaking joke. I've been a Yahoo member for 10 (10!!!) years, and I have a feeling it's all going to go downhill if it happens.
Reply:I have a lot of respect for Microsoft and without them I don't think we would be where we are now. However, I wouldn't like them to take over Yahoo things just wouldn't be the same.
Reply:1. Why not? It's a kind of like a monopoly. I'd do the same, they like money just as much as others.
2. All for one.
3. Who needs friends when you sit upon billions of dollars? I'm sure they have enough.
Reply:i actually like Microsoft i wouldn't mind if they took over yahoo but it would feel different
Reply:Many of you have answered and gave much of your time to help others. It just isn't right for Yahoo to give in, i bet they could find a means of their own to bail them out of any money problems.
DARN IT, i never even made it off level 2 yet
Reply:Microsoft invented operating systems, you could say that without microsoft the internet would not be here the way it is now.

How can I re-install Microsoft Word 2003 on my computer?
I have everything else from microsoft such as powerpoint,excel and everything else but now word. I went to have something done with my computer and now I don't have it at all-microsoft word 2003. Do I need to buy the soft ware to re install it? It just doesn't appear with all of the other microsoft office products. I have to write a paper so will it make any difference using microsoft works instead of microsoft word 2003? Please help.......................................
I just need microsoft word to come back.
How can I re-install Microsoft Word 2003 on my computer?
Lets try 2 things:
1. Perhaps you have only deleted the shortcuts. Goto Start -%26gt; Run and type "winword" and hit enter.
2. Perhaps you have some corruption etc. Goto Start -%26gt; Control Panel -%26gt; Add remove programs and then find Office 2003. Use the remove option. Don't worry, it will give you the repair option. Hopefully you have the installer files locally cached,otherwise you will need the CD.
Hope this helps

Where do i find Microsoft's web-based equivalent to Google Earth?
The other day one of my students showed me a map he had found on a microsoft website, that looked just like google earth, except that he was able to get images that were much higher resolution than my normal Google Earth can get.
I know this: The site had a Windows circle emblem and a bluish color theme. The site also had the word "Virtual" in its name, such as microsoft virtual maps. It was web-based, unlike google maps. It had the navigation indicators in the upper left corner of the view.
Now whenever i try to find that site again myself, it always sends me to the stupid corporate Microsoft site that tells me everything i could ever want to know about setting up microsoft virtual maps for my own business, but it doesn't actually show me any place online to just USE THE PROGRAM!
I just want the link to the site where i can type in my street address, and get the microsoft virtual map for that location, where i can then zoom way in and get a very hi-res image of my location.

This is some sources I have listed I'm not sure if training is available for you in Mumbai but, I'm sure there is something here for you. Have you heard of the E-Learning? E-Learning gives you the convenience to study at home at your own rate and you can take the course as much as you want. I used E-Learning when I started and I was very impressed with it. I do believe it would cost you money though I'm not sure how much since my company paid for my training. I hope this helps you out and good luck.

Microsoft possible takeover of yahoo?
Microsoft is offering to buy yahoo for 44 billion but yahoo refused, and now Microsoft is going hostile.
My question is, why can't Microsoft just buy all the shares on the market as a regular share holder would, to take over the company?
Is there a reason why they can't just buy all the shares on the market since Yahoo is public?
Microsoft possible takeover of yahoo?
Because buy over 1 billion shares on the open market will likely drive the price higher than 31 per share.
Reply:Because there are 1,249,300,000. shares in the public's hands (called the float). If Microsoft had bought every single share that traded today, which was an above average day for sales volume of Yahoo stock, it would have purchased only 80,447,248 shares or considerably less than 1% of the outstanding shares. Not nearly enough to even make a dent let alone a takoeover. What do you think would happen to the price of Yahoo stock if everyone knew that Microsoft wanted to buy every available share? The price would go up every day especially when Microsoft was getting close to a controlling percent.

Microsoft Updates Not Working?
I need help, im down to my last breath with this crap, I recently had a problem with a virus trojan byte verify and trojan downloader, i have the purchased norton and it resolved the issue
I had a few things malfunction including the secuirty center and updates for microsoft

Microsoft Updates Not Working?
0x80072EE7 error code
To resolve this error, examine the Hosts file. (This file may also be named Hosts.sam.) Make sure that the file does not list any static IP entries for the Windows Update Web site or for the Microsoft Update Web site.
The Hosts file is located in the C:\Windows\system32\drivers\etc folder. To view the Hosts file, you may have to associate the file with Notepad. To do this, follow these steps: 1. Right-click the Hosts file.
2. Click Open With, and then select Notepad from the list of programs.
If the Hosts file contains a static IP address that is associated with Windows Update or with Microsoft Update, comment the entry by adding the # sign at the beginning of the entry. You can also delete the whole line and save changes to the Hosts file.
Note Programs, such as Web accelerators, DNS accelerators, DNS caching utilities, and Spyblockers, can add static IP entries for the Windows Update Web site or for the Microsoft Update Web site to your Hosts file. This scenario can cause Windows Update or Microsoft Update to fail.
If you try, or have tried this resolution to no avail, contact me and let me know in detail what resolution you did so I can see.
Reply:Sounds like you're having trouble due to not being able to connect. Could be a firewall issue, or it could be remnants of your virus that changed some settings on your connection.
Microsoft provides a troubleshooting page for your specific issue. Run through it and see if it will help.
Reply:omg, my husband had the same thing happen. Wound up calling in a professional to clean off everything, then had to reload everything. It was such an ordeal. The microsoft help line was useless. Hope you have an easier time than we did. Got it to work, but it cost close to a thousand to have it fixed. When all was said and done, we were sorry we didn't replace the computer with a new one. He lost three days of work, data, and still has a machine that doesn't work the way it is supposed to... for instance, who backs up their contact list on outlook? Even that was lost....

Microsoft Outlook Email?
On my Dell Inspiron E1405 Laptop, I have Microsoft Outlook installed. Even though I have it installed, I cannot set up my email, because I do not know how. Does anyone know how to link my Yahoo! Email Classic to Microsoft Outlook so that whenever I open Microsoft Outlook, my Yahoo! emails are filtered into Outlook? This would be so nice, because I wouldn't have to open my email in Mozilla Firefox every time I wanted to check it!
Microsoft Outlook Email?
If you want to use Outlook, Outlook Express, Thunderbird or other third party email clients to view your email you have 2 options.
Subscribe to mail plus:
http://billing.mail.yahoo.com/bm/Upgrade...
or download and install YPOPS
http://ypopsemail.com/
then follow the directions for your version of outlook here,
http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mail/or...
If you have trouble with set up, check the YPOPS installation page for alternate set up instructions.
http://dbeusee.home.comcast.net/
Click on YPOPS link on the left.
Then Click on Configuring email clients towards the bottom.
Choose the appropriate link for your mail client.
I currently utilize version 2.0.0.4 of Thunderbird
and version 0.8.3 of YPOPS (there is a more recent version of YPOPS that you need if you are Yahoo Beta Mail) and have no problems.
Reply:Unless you have are paying for the Advanced Yahoo mail, you can't do it through Outlook/Entourage.
If you do have the advanced service, go to your "options" menu and there are directions there on how to set up Outlook/Entourage for your e-mail address.
Reply:You have to either have Mail Plus(paid) or use ypops in order to set up your email on Outlook.
Reply:You need POP3 address's in order to do it, which you have to pay for... They're not very expensive but pointless when you can just use hotmail or yahoo for free.

Help Microsoft Office specialist help needed (Microsoft Office Publisher, hyperlink)?
I'm using Microsoft Office Publisher to write an E-Book, I have used hyperlink to link other Microsoft Office applications such as Microsoft Office PowerPoint, Excel and PDFs and I have saved it as a web page, filter.
it's works fine on my computer, I can open all the links I put on it through hypelink but when I tranfer it using my USB to a differnt computer with all the document it gives me a error massage saying Unable to open, Cannot open the specific file.
When I copy it to a differnt computer I make sure that I copy all the other application (PowerPoint, Excel and PDFs) with it, all in 1 file but it still gives me a error message. please help deadline for this work is tomorrow.
Any help will be highly Appreciated
Help Microsoft Office specialist help needed (Microsoft Office Publisher, hyperlink)?
Similar to what the first poster said, you need to have the specific computer listed in the case that it is a network file. If it isn't a network file, then the other files are called using their directory address. In this case, the files have to either be in the same directory on each computer or you have to re-link the files on each computer or device (USB drive) so that the directory is the same.
An example directory is:
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\My Documents\ My E-Book.pub
In the case of the above directory, your files are stored there and thats where you look for them. Relating it to real world, its like if you had a friend that lived in a mobile home. If he is in a Mobile home park you can find him by the address he is always at, but if you look to find him on the road you need a new address to locate him at. Hope this makes sense.
Reply:As you have moved the files to another location the original links refer to when they were on your original computer. The path/drive has obviously now changed so you need to update the links. They are trying to link to a file on another computer which it cnanot reach unless you are networked, which I guess you are not.
Reply:You may need to include the machine name of the specific PC in the hyperlink. That is, the PC that you have transferred the file to.

Frustration City. I have tried a "system restore" and a full uninstall/install of XP SP2. Still no sound but the CMOS beep. Nothing on MSDN to help. Beyond a complete format and reinstall, involving reinstall of all my apps (on a 80 GB HDD), I don't know what to do. There are three files involved: kmixer.sys and wdmaudio.inf and dmusic. Twoof the tress come up with a Search,,,but no wdmaudio. I wonder what that is all about and how to fix this mess. Any help will be appreciated.
Reply:Hi, I had a similar problem. Got it fixed by doing a system restore... infact, just 10 min back.
I have dual boot system with XP and Suse 10.3 linux. The problem started after I installed some multimedia %26amp; flash software in my Suse 10.3 OS. Once I came back to XP, although my sound card was working fine, songs were not being played. These two (Microsoft kernel wave audio mixer and Microsoft kernel audio splitter) showed up as plug-and-play devices under device manager -%26gt; sound, video and game controllers.
Once I did system restore, the sound has been restored and these two have disappeared from the device manager.
Hope it will work for you as well.

I had a few things malfunction including the secuirty center and updates for microsoft
I got the security center up and working but i cant get the microsoft updates to work with any program, it gives me an error message Error number: 0x80072EE7
MICROSOFT SOLUTION DOESNT SEEM TO WORK
anyone with help please respond
Microsoft Updates Not Working?
0x80072EE7 error code
To resolve this error, examine the Hosts file. (This file may also be named Hosts.sam.) Make sure that the file does not list any static IP entries for the Windows Update Web site or for the Microsoft Update Web site.
The Hosts file is located in the C:\Windows\system32\drivers\etc folder. To view the Hosts file, you may have to associate the file with Notepad. To do this, follow these steps: 1. Right-click the Hosts file.
2. Click Open With, and then select Notepad from the list of programs.
If the Hosts file contains a static IP address that is associated with Windows Update or with Microsoft Update, comment the entry by adding the # sign at the beginning of the entry. You can also delete the whole line and save changes to the Hosts file.
Note Programs, such as Web accelerators, DNS accelerators, DNS caching utilities, and Spyblockers, can add static IP entries for the Windows Update Web site or for the Microsoft Update Web site to your Hosts file. This scenario can cause Windows Update or Microsoft Update to fail.
If you try, or have tried this resolution to no avail, contact me and let me know in detail what resolution you did so I can see.
Reply:Sounds like you're having trouble due to not being able to connect. Could be a firewall issue, or it could be remnants of your virus that changed some settings on your connection.

Microsoft certification with a focus on Microsoft office and small office networking?
I work in sales so I am not an IT professional, however, I do love to learn and I am interested in technology. I have been looking at becoming Microsoft Certified but I want to focus on Office and maybe some networking. However I want my main focus to be on Office because that is what I use most often. And I have not plans to go into networking or any other IT field. After reviewing the material on the Microsoft site, I must say it is rather confusing. Is there a certification for Office? And if so what is it and how do I find it. I know I could just study the materials but I would like to receive certification if it is available. In this job market a person can not go wrong adding education to their resume. Thanks for your help!

Microsoft Kernel Wave Audio Mixer and Microsoft Kernel Audio Splitter?
Frustration City. I have tried a "system restore" and a full uninstall/install of XP SP2. Still no sound but the CMOS beep. Nothing on MSDN to help. Beyond a complete format and reinstall, involving reinstall of all my apps (on a 80 GB HDD), I don't know what to do. There are three files involved: kmixer.sys and wdmaudio.inf and dmusic. Twoof the tress come up with a Search,,,but no wdmaudio. I wonder what that is all about and how to fix this mess. Any help will be appreciated.
Reply:Hi, I had a similar problem. Got it fixed by doing a system restore... infact, just 10 min back.
I have dual boot system with XP and Suse 10.3 linux. The problem started after I installed some multimedia %26amp; flash software in my Suse 10.3 OS. Once I came back to XP, although my sound card was working fine, songs were not being played. These two (Microsoft kernel wave audio mixer and Microsoft kernel audio splitter) showed up as plug-and-play devices under device manager -%26gt; sound, video and game controllers.
Once I did system restore, the sound has been restored and these two have disappeared from the device manager.
Hope it will work for you as well.

Do you know of any FREE classroom-based courses in LONDON, UK on Microsoft Project and Microsoft Access.
I'm new to I.T. and I need to learn these two applications.
I learn best in a classroom with a teacher (so I don't want online courses, book recommendations or tutorial DVD's)
I'm not working, so can't pay. The course has to be free.

Microsoft Word help?
I just deleted Microsoft Office, and I guess Microsoft Word was in there (It wasn't intentional to delete it). Right now my computer is using some 97 writing thing. Does anyone know how to get back Microsoft Word 03 or a more recent one for free? Or do I have to pay money to get it?

Previous poster is correct... try a System Restore first (click start-%26gt;all programs-%26gt;accessories-%26gt;system tools-%26gt;System Restore) directions are simple. If System Restore doesn't work, now would be a good time to try out Open Office....an open-source (developed for free!) alternative that is completely compatible with Microsoft Office, right down to Power Point. Any file created with Microsoft Word would be able to be opened by Open Office and vice versa.
Open Office is your best bet if System Restore fails. Good luck!

If you have the CD, re-install it!
Choice B~
Go to your recycle bin and recover it, by clicking on it and choosing "Recover".
Choice C~
If you remeber what day you deleated it, you can restore your computer back to that date.
Reply:how long ago was it? because you can go into system restore and change the fact that you actually deleted it

how do i put a picture on on top of another picture in microsoft word? i am making party invitations and i used a microsoft word template and i want to put a picture from clip art on to the invitation on microsoft word. help!
PLEASE ANSWER!
Microsoft word help!!! PLEASE ANSWER!?
right click one of the pictures %26gt;format picture%26gt; layout%26gt; infront of text
now you can move it anywhere!
Reply:Try putting one of the pics as a water mark and inserting the second pic as you would normally.
Reply:Make sure each of your images have the "above text" wrap setting. Just right-click on each image and find the wrap part.
Then, make sure you know how to order your images, from bottom to top. Right-click on each image again, and choose the right ordering, so that each image is on top of the other in the order you want.
Hope that helps!
Reply:goto format and there should be something there like "Behind text"
Reply:If you are trying to put objects on top of other objects... you need to move one to the forward or one to the background...
This can be done from the "drawing" toolbar... to view the drawing toolbar click on View %26gt;%26gt; Toolbars %26gt;%26gt; Drawing.
On that toolbar click on draw %26gt;%26gt; point to Order %26gt;%26gt; and move forward or backward...
You can also try righ-clicking on the picture%26gt; and from the toolbar for pictures "format" %26gt;%26gt; Layout%26gt; then choose forward or behind text...
You can try simply dragging the images on top of one another. You may need to set one as a background first.
The best thing to do if you are trying to lay an image on top of another image is to use a program like Adobe Photoshop and merge them together into one picture... and then import them into your document.
Good Luck

Well first double-click the photo and click layout and then press square and then your able to move the photo

Reply:MSWord can not make this alone. This will require another picture editor to make it happens. Using photoshop, you load first picture on first layer, then open up another layer for next picture. Turn both layers on, and adjust the transparency to the degree you like as your background. Save the the file in either gif or jpg file. The file can be imported to MSWord as background. You may us any other photo/picture editors whatever you prefer.

No, Office 2003 is not "foreward" compatible. But yes, there are Office 2007 "reader" applications that can read the newer file formats.

Should I allow Microsoft to validate my Windows XP and Office systems?
I received a computer request from Microsoft to validate my systems, and I can see why Microsoft wants to ensure that users' systems are authentic, but I am not sure that it is advantageous to me. I have a Dell computer and the computer came with Windows XP and Office, so I am sure that my systems are valid. However, once you agree to Microsoft's validation procedure, the process stays on your computer, transmits information to the company, can never be deleted, and anytime you download anything from Microsoft, you will have to go through the validation process again. Are most of you authorizing Microsoft to do this? Please let me know.
Thanks for your help!

The process is not continuous.
You must understand that the process is completely voluntary. There is no reason to join, or not to join.
The scan simple ensures that you have valid Microsoft Software, and by validating your system you are entitled to free updates from Microsoft and technical help.
I always let Microsoft validate my system. It keeps it save and allows me to download key needed applications.

First of all, who uses "M$" anymore? This isn't the 90's, and every company needs to make a profit.
The new ribbon UI in Office is awesome. Maybe if you have a puny monitor, would it take up this so-called "2-inches", but it only takes up about 1-inch on my 17-inch monitor, and I find the UI very easy to navigate, and there's the possibility of switching off the ribbon, to a bigger space.
If you're a college student, you can use your .edu account to good use : http://theultimatesteal.com/home.asp
This is an official website by Microsoft.
You only have to pay about $60, and you can get ALL of Office 07' Ultimate.
Not just your typcial programs, but ALL of them, for the small price of $60. This isn't a joke. Microsoft is trying to make their office program more accessible, and cheaper, so this is a very good deal.
With Office 07', you don't just get a good deal, but a lot of service, like free ClipArt, templates, and other downloads.
You get real quality software, and a really easy to use experience. The new ribbon UI is amazing.
DON'T get OpenOffice. It's a program for el cheapos, and I heard its very buggy, and a few downloads put malware in friends computers. It also doesn't offer as much as Office, and no end service as well. So don't get it. You're better off without it.

STAY AWAY AT ALL COSTS from M$ OFfice 2007!
If you use a laptop, you lose 2 inches of document space at the top of the screen due to M$'s decision to change all menu's to Icons.
And usually when you upgrade from one version of Office to another, the Installer will either automatically remove the previous version, or ask you if you want to keep the previous version.
If you feel the need to upgrade, have you looked at OpenOffice? (www.openoffice.org). IT reads/writes Word, Excel and Powerpoint. and you can install it on as many computers as you'd like.

The Microsoft Xbox 360 Wireless Racing Wheel seems to be out of stock everywhere. Was it discontinued?
Everywhere I check, the Microsoft Xbox 360 Wireless Racing Wheel is out of stock, and one vendor told me that Microsoft had discontinued the product. Microsoft is offering a free retrofit to owners of the Xbox 360 Wireless Racing Wheel game controller due to overheating issues. Is Microsoft going to release a new controller, or are they stopping manufacturing until they can fix the overheating issues?

Microsoft vs. Apple?
Do you think that Microsoft is stealing ideas from Apple? First, Microsoft released Zune which looks exactly like iPods and then they released Windows Vista which has a lot of similarities with Mac OSX, such as the search bar and widgets...
And who knows... Microsoft might release a mobile phone with the same features as iPhone from apple.
What do you think? and which do you prefer?
Microsoft vs. Apple?
Microsoft has always had a dirty reputation of stealing from Apple. Remember the Windows 3.1 OS which was released in the early 90s, suddenly made the whole world think Bill Gates is a genius for making the first Graphical user-friendly PC operating system? Bullshit! The Windows 3.1 was nothing but a rip-off off the erstwhile Apple Mac OS, which didn't get much publicity surprisingly.

I can tell you why! Its because that that got scared and stole an ipod idea. Which then caused a chain reaction of apple to start coming up with 5 different, new, and awesome apple products. There is your answer, take it or leave it.

Microsoft Works missing, Can I get it back? I don't even know if this is hardware or software?!?
Can anyone help? I have Windows XP Home Edition, Version 5.1 with Service Pack 1 (copywrite 1981-2001) Microsoft Corp. I was using Microsoft Works a LOT. Yesterday it froze, I rebooted, and poof! Mocrosoft Works was there, the pages with the menu titles, but NO MENU details anywhere. Basically, the page was blank. On add or remove programs I clicked Microsoft Works and it asked if I wanted it repaired. Clicked that and got an error. Asked if I wanted to delete it, so I did. I used Start and Run to install C:\bundle\Works\works6.msi. It DOES install until the very last part of the install. Then I get the following: Error 1309 Error reading from file: C:\bundle\Works\PFiles\MSWorks\wkgdcach.... Verify that the file exists and that you can access it. I went to Search and only file I have is the install file. What can I do? I don't really want to restore, takes days with updates, etc. Any help appreciated. I'm not "puter" savy (sp) so please try to keep it simple. THANX
Microsoft Works missing, Can I get it back? I don't even know if this is hardware or software?!?
The original problem was probably with the task launcher specifically. If you go to C: - Program Files - Microsoft Works and try to run the programs directly such as WksWP and Wksdb, etc they should have still worked. Now that you've done an uninstall, however, they will probably not be there. If you have a backup or restore disk, the complete installation may be included there. If not, then a restore is probably the only option. I've had to do this as well. The updates and software downloads, retweaking - all very annoying. Wish there was more I could do. Good luck.
Reply:I'm glad to hear you got it fixed and running.
For reference, anything that is installed on the system such as programs and utilities are considered software. Hardware would be the actual physical components such as the hard drive and the fans, etc. Report It
Reply:Most of these require hardware drivers to be installed in order to function. Even though they are called hardware drivers, they are still considered software.

Star Trek "V" Microsoft?
Star Trek TNG Meets Microsoft
--------------------------------------...
Picard:
Mr. LaForge, have you had any success with your attempts at finding a weakness in the Borg? And Mr. Data, have you been able to access their command pathways?
Geordi:
Yes, Captain. In fact, we found the answer by searching through our archives on late Twentieth-century computing technology.
Geordi presses a key, and a logo appears on the computer screen.
Riker [puzzled]
What the hell is Microsoft?
Data [turns to explain]
Allow me to explain. We will send this program, for some reason called Windows, through the Borg command pathways. Once inside their root command unit, it will begin consuming system resources at an unstoppable rate.
Picard:
But the Borg have the ability to adapt. Won't they alter their processing systems to increase their storage capacity?
Data:
Yes, Captain. But when Windows detects this, it creates a new version of itself known as an upgrade. The use of resources increases exponentially with each iteration. The Borg will not be able to adapt quickly enough. Eventually all of their processing ability will be taken over and none will be available for their normal operational functions.
Picard:
Excellent work. This is even better than that unsolvable geometric shape idea.
. . . . 15 Minutes Later . . .
Data:
Captain, we have successfully installed the Windows in the Borg's command unit. As expected, it immediately consumed 85% of all available resources. However, we have not received any confirmation of the expected upgrade.
Geordi:
Our scanners have picked up an increase in Borg storage and CPU capacity, but we still have no indication of an upgrade to compensate for their increase.
Picard:
Data, scan the history banks again and determine if there is something we have missed.
Data:
Sir, I believe there is a reason for the failure in the upgrade. Appearently the Borg have circumvented that part of the plan by not sending in their registration cards.
Riker:
Captain, we have no choice. Requesting permission to begin emergency escape sequence 3F!
Geordi: [excited]
Wait, Captain! Their CPU capacity has suddenly dropped to 0% !
Picard:
Data, what do your scanners show?
Data: [studying displays]
Appearently the Borg have found the internal Windows module named Solitaire, and it has used up all available CPU capacity.
Picard:
Lets wait and see how long this Solitaire can reduce their functionality.
. . . . Two Hours Pass . . .
Riker:
Geordi, what is the status of the Borg?
Geordi:
As expected, the Borg are attempting to re-engineer to compensate for increased CPU and storage demands, but each time they successfully increase resources I have setup our closest deep space monitor beacon to transmit more Windows modules from something called the Microsoft Fun-Pack.
Picard:
How much time will that buy us?
Data:
Current Borg solution rates allow me to predict an interest time span of 6 more hours.
Geordi:
Captain, another vessel has entered our sector.
Picard:
Identify.
Data:
It appears to have markings very similar to the Microsoft logo...
[over the speakers]
This is admiral Bill Gates of the Microsoft flagship MONOPOLY. We have positive confirmation of unregistered software in this sector. Surrender all assets and we can avoid any trouble. You have 10 seconds to comply.
Data:
The alien ship has just opened its forward hatches and released thousands of humanoid-shaped objects.
Picard:
Magnify forward viewer on the alien craft!
Riker:
My God, captain! Those are human beings floating straight toward the Borg ship - with no life support suits! How can they survive the tortures of deep space?!
Data:
I dont believe that those are humans, sir. If you will look closer I believe you will see that they are carrying something recognized by twenty-first century man as doeskin leather briefcases, and wearing Armani suits.
Riker and Picard, together [horrified]
Lawyers!!
Geordi:
It can't be. All the Lawyers were rounded up and sent hurtling into the sun in 2017 during the Great Awakening.
Data:
True, but appearently some must have survived.
Riker:
They have surrounded the Borg ship and are covering it with all types of papers.
Data:
I believe that is known in ancient vernacular as red tape. It often proves fatal.
Riker:
They're tearing the Borg to pieces!
Picard:
Turn the monitors off, Data, I cant bear to watch. Even the Borg doesn't deserve such a gruesome death!

Microsoft trying to buy Yahoo! at 50 million $ Anyone Know? Why?
Microsoft has offered Yahoo! 50 million $ the biggest price ever for an internet search engine!
Can anyone tell me why Microsoft is doing this and for what?
Sources say that Msoft trying this to beat Google! For what purpose? Can they beat GOOGLE!
and last Should Yahoo be sold to Microsoft?
Post your opinion!
Microsoft trying to buy Yahoo! at 50 million $ Anyone Know? Why?
For Microsoft, this is a corporate strategy. Maybe
Microsoft wants to venture into the market that Google

Only time will tell if Microsoft can beat Google.
It really depends on Yahoo stockholders if they want

Is Microsoft is trying to make money out of everything that they make?
It is pretty unfair the Microsoft is trying to make money out of everything that they make. I am starting a complaint to the xbox live that xbox live should be free because we already paid for everything else, at least the xbox live should be free. Sony Playstation 3 is a really big company so they don't worry about the playstation 3 online alot because they make profit no matter what. Microsoft is losing money quickly because of all the people complaint the first time the 360 came out because of the frozen screen and ring of death. People were so piss off even more when the warranty expired that quickly and people didn't know they have warranties because they didn't sign for anything. So people have to pay to get their 360 fix, but Microsoft found out that alot of people are not happy so they refund every repair cost back to the costumer and now they try to charge us for the xbox live for the profit they lost. HAHAHAHAHA MICROSOFT GOT SCREWED AND WE ARE PAYING FOR THAT!!!!!!!!
Is Microsoft is trying to make money out of everything that they make?
lol...yes. PS3 is the best cause they don't charge for everything! 360 is so cheap! You don't hear anything like that ring of death or the frozen screen on the PS3, i mean come on that like Nintendo 64 crap! PS3 just mite be more money but i think it's worth it!
Reply:Ya. Paying for luxuries is BS.
Reply:yes, i agree. microsoft should just invest millions in developing something, and then they should just give it away for free. And XBOX live should be totally free, microsoft should pay thousands for bandwidth and putting up servers, and just give you free access.
Reply:how dare a company try to make money!
Reply:well for one the reason PS3's online is free is because the system is selling like **** and dont say no its not because more ppl have bought the Wii than that peice of crap. oh and another thing the reason they charge for xbox live is because it costs money too keep up and one more thing *whispers* one out of every 10 ps3s are broken off the line.

Microsoft codename 'Longhorn' reloaded,does anyone know of a website that offers support?
I have recently begun a project experimenting with Microsoft codename 'Longhorn' which is a o/s Microsoft were working on before they decided to ditch it.
I have got the o/s up and running and its quite impressive.Its like a hybrid of XP and Vista.
Does anyone know of a site or useful forum which offers any support ?
Microsoft offers no support as its not recognized as one of their o/s as they ditched it.
I would like to implement IE7 and WMP11 amongst other things. I have tried installing it from the MS download site to no avail.
I only seem to be able to find IE7 for XP. Does anyone know where I can find a download for IE7 Vista as I feel this may work.
It seems to be running IE6 at the moment, hence I am using firefox at present.
Please if anyone could help with this and any other useful info. it would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Microsoft codename 'Longhorn' reloaded,does anyone know of a website that offers support?
Longhorn was just Vista in it's earliest stages. It was based on xp's source code so the xp version of ie7 is probably more likely to work than a vista version. Microsoft gave up and just restarted everything, and came up with Vista. Microsoft worked on longhorn just prior to their release of XP and it was expected to be released in 2003. Something i ike better than IE7 and WMP11 is the latest version of Mozilla Firefox and VLC media player. Mozilla Firefox is less vulnerable to spyware and VLC can play many video formats that WMP can't. VLC will play anything, including DVD's without having to install any extra codecs. I just read that microsoft is already working on Vista's successor,codenamed Blackcome and Vienna, now called Windows 7. But yeah, those 2 programs I mentioned are definitely worth a try
Reply:Well you certainly can pick your battles.... The mere fact that MS came out with new versions of everything because vista isn't compatible with anything else makes it that much tougher.
Instead of going with IE7 for Vista which I don't think will work, try a good third party browser, i.e. firefox. Windows would be so much better if it came with that instead of IE anyway.
I say if your going to frankenstein an OS take the best from all over and try not to limit yourself to what MS released.
Reply:Longhorn was the codename for Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 ! So how could they have ditched it if Vista was released ! IE7 should work for Vista since there's no other IE version available !

Microsoft word will not work with firefox?
soemebody said if your internet explorer does not work you could uninstall it and use firefox. But just to let you know, if you use firefox microsoft word will not work, and you may experience problems with other microsoft office applications. I did this and ended up having to uninstall firefox, then I could not get the internet and a system restore would not bring IE back, so I had to clear my hard drive and reinstall windows. So if you need microsoft word do not use firefox.
Microsoft word will not work with firefox?
apparently you did something wrong. MS word has nothing to do with the browsers. they have no way of even conflicting since they are two separate programs that do totally different things. also if you had IE problems, all you had to do is go into the add/remove programs, select delete and then a window comes up with the repair option. this was your solution.
Reply:Hi!
That information is completely false. I am using Firefox now and use word on a daily basis.
Reply:What a crock of bull. You must have really screwed things up in your OS and put the blame on Firefox. I've been using FireFox, Mozilla, Netscape (all open source code browsers) for years with absolutely no problems. You're much better off using these than IE which is probably one of the primary reasons why viruses spread on the net.

we all know microsft use there spying games with all that use the microsoft .os windows system .they spy on us when we download the windows updates. microsft use a file to check out our computers on the software we install .on our computers with windows .os on. they have been doing that for years . that is one big spy game from microsft .now . microsft use this on us

Computer spying games from microsoft?
You bet they are getting alot of info off all of us who update .
Think about it how many times does windows update site seem like it takes a long time to find the updates . I bet it's looking in to much more than that way more infact i wonder if the FBI is getting help from old Bill Gates and crew .
I think and i REALLY do that the patroit act has many companys working under cover for them and i belive Microsoft is one of them privacy is in the eye of the beholder .
Cookies now that is a good %26amp; evil item cookies are great if you have dial up and they save you ton's of load up time on a web page you have went to . But on the evil side they can be taken/ copied from say Microsoft when you do a up date and given to who ever asks for them and boom the feds know just where you and i have been .
Even if we switch them off and have our history cleared when we close IE does it really clear them or does it just appear that way ..
I have heard that every harddrive has what is called ghost files and the way it was explaned to me is take a blank HDD that is 10GB add windows that is 1GB so you would have 9GB left but it really don't come out that way and the extra lost space is where the ghost file are kept and only if you write all zeros to the HDD will you ever get rid of them .
Sorry if i seemed to ramble on but in todays world there is no such thing as privacy if you have not noticed if you use plastic to buy stuff your credit card company has a record of what you bought and sometimes you start getting adds in the mail from folks who sell stuff like you have been buying ?

Microsoft Backup for Windows Vista or Second Copy backup software?
Is there any advantage to running a program like Second Copy instead of Microsoft Backup for Vista? Second Copy is a exact copy while Microsoft separates into many folders. I already have a license for second copy, but I'm not sure if it is an advantage to use it. It looks cleaner, but maybe Microsoft is doing a better job of copying the files I need.
Microsoft Backup for Windows Vista or Second Copy backup software?
The backup software within Vista is surprisingly good, much better than in previous versions of Windows. It can back up only selected files, like documents and stuff, which is what I believe you're talking about, but it can also do an image-based backup as well, like second copy does, which can fully restore a hard drive, including operating system. I don't know much about second copy, but if I were you, I'd play around with both, and just see what you're more comfortable with. I've used Norton Ghost and Acronis True Image for a long time, but I've been messing around with Vista's backup, and I really like it so far.

Microsoft Windows Vista Ultimate(Full Version) - OEM - DVD?
what's the difference between "Microsoft Windows Vista Ultimate(Full Version) - OEM - DVD($199)" and "Windows Vista Ultimate by Microsoft($399)"?
see, Microsoft Windows Vista Ultimate(Full Version) - OEM - DVD is cheaper than the one "Window Vista Ultimate for 200 Dollars and they are the same
Microsoft Windows Vista Ultimate(Full Version) - OEM - DVD?
They are essenstially the same thing. OEM versions are originally intended to be bundled with hardware and supplied through the OEM - Original Equipment Manufacturer -- like when you buy a shiny new Dell laptop for example. However, OEM versions do make their way through regular software retailer channels sometimes -- this is an example. There are tons of price variations for Windows Vista for all the different flavors.

Also, 15 Million people in the USA are eligble for discounts up to 75% off Vista, but don't know it. Here's a post with more details and a price list: http://www.essistme.com/2007/01/31/why-s...

Can Microsoft be sued for forceware?
Hello, I have a question to ask today here. Someone in my family decided to try "Medical billing and coding". The program required use of microsoft office, which we did not have. Also I personally run a different operating system alltogether. Microsoft office 2003 would have cost us about 200 - 400 standard edition. As a result the member of the house could not finish the course. Because we are on a tight budget at the moment. So, we paid about 1,000 dollars for the course. The member did not know they would be required to use Microsoft products. Anyone that has any idea in law, because I do not that much. Can you tell me if it would be possible, and just, and an inexpensive way to bring Microsoft to court for justice? They afterall made this requirment "Excel, word , etc" It was forced upon us. To get the money back as an Antitrust settlement. It is not really correct we paid "and still paying out" money for nothing. It is not institutes fault for this standard in offices.
Can Microsoft be sued for forceware?
You don't jhave a leg to stand on. You neglected to mention who offered the course or whether they let you know in advance of taking the course that you needed this specific Microsoft software.
You might be able to get a refund from whoever offered the course IF you could somehow prove they didn't inform you in advance that you needed to use Microsoft products for the course. You won't get an antitrust settelement from Microsoft, that much I am sure of.
Reply:It seems that any reasonable person could get access to Microsoft products with minimal effort. Try a library or friend. 90% of PCs have Microsofts products. You don't have to join the crowd, but to hold up completing a course with lack of access as an excuse is lame. Report It

Microsoft updates?
Am I the only one that keeps installing these updates from Microsoft? I try to be informed about what I'm downloading, but the description usually just reads "a security issue has been identified that could allow an attacker to gain control of your computer." It seems to me Microsoft will never find all the "security issues" and I have years of dowloaded code a-la-Microsoft sitting on my computer doing god knows what. Should I stop dowloading this stuff? I already have Norton Internet Security installed (which I pay a ridiculous yearly fee for) and my firewall is always turned on.)
Microsoft updates?
Keep installing updates. They discover new security flaws in their system all the time, and patch them. Hackers can take advantage of people's lacking of installing recent updates and can exploit their computers. Besides, you can set your computer to get Automatic Updates and it would not bother you at all.
Norton is useful for trying to block or get rid of stuff that is able to get through the system anyways. That's how I would describe it.
Reply:most updates are to protect yer investment in your puter. and yer right it is a never ending battle. if you stop, you may be safe untill a known web site has a bug in it the installs just like a cookie, you never know its there. untill you reboot, then you find something is wrong but dont know what. and nortons dont know either. on the other hand you may get one anyway. good luck
Reply:The way I have mine set is to only notify me that updates are availiable, but to not download them automaticaly. Then I can check to be sure I get just the ones I want. I then click on "custom", and after the updates have been downloaded I look them over to see which ones I want, then disconnect from the internetnet, disable firewall and anti-virus program, and then install the updates I want, and click "Don't tell me again" on the ones I don't want, and then re-enable the firewall and anti-virus programs before reconnecting to the net. I use all free protection programs.
Reply:If you copy the title of the security update and put it in the Microsoft search box you will get a listing for the Description of the Security update. You can also get the download site if the update doesn't get downloaded or installed this way.
Do what you want with the updates. It's your computer.
Reply:I know what you mean. I turned off the automatic updates on my personal desktop about 9 months ago for this very reason. It seemed as though every time I started my computer, I had to update, let it restart and then do what I needed to do. Guess what? Since I have turned off AU, it works fine. I use Avast for virus protection, have a router and haven't had a problem. I never use IE for surfing (strong proponent of Mozilla). I run Lavasoft adaware once per week and have an average of 1 item per month to deal with. It's usually a tracking cookie with a low scary-factor.
On the other hand, on my laptop from work, AU are turned on automatically (I can't change it). I lost almost 2 hours of work on Friday because of all the updates and restarts and crap. I really don't know how necessary it is, but I agree it makes me wonder what all those updates are doing and how much space are they taking? Once they have been applied, can they be removed from my machine (going through My Computer and accessing Windows Subdirectory). Why can't they be a little more specific than the standard crap explanations they give in their updates? Aren't we the customer and they are the supplier?

Microsoft Office is not getting out of my Computer...!?
I downloaded the free trail of Microsoft Office... After 2 Months, the thing uninstall by itself. I needed Microsoft Office again but I have no time to buy it so I install the free trail again. It lasted for 2 Months. After 2 months, it stopped working but cannot be removed from my computer. I bought the full version of Microsoft Office but I have to remove the old one. Every time I try to uninstall, the thing say that it cannot be uninstalled. But I got the full version already and I need to used it. How can I uninstall the old one?

Reply:If you are trying to un-install it from the add/remove programs there is a chance that some parts of it are already gone. In this case you will have to manually uninstall all traces of it. First go to Start, Run, and type in Msconfig. On the start-up tab uncheck anything that may show up for office if anything does. Then check the running processes, by using Alt+Ctrl+Del keys and see if there is anything running that relates to office. Do a search for any folders or files that are from office. Those you have to delete manually. Also run a registry checker to remove all entries for office. Thendefrag your disk and look to see that office is gone from your add/remove programs.If it is, you should now be able to load your new copy.

I had microsoft WORD, and now when i upgraded some things, via microsoft.com, all i get it Microsoft Viewer.
This does NOT allow me to make editing changes, so I cannot make any corrections.
Why did this happen??

Microsoft WORD disappeared?
Go to start program, press all programs and then go to accessories and go to system tools on the drop down and go to restore systems now and then click next, choose a date prior to when you lost it, put date before you lost it and click next. Wait and it will shut down and your word will be restored. You can also go to control panel and add Microsoft word and just download it again. The first way may take out your upgrades but you will have your word back. This is a good way to get it back.

Microsoft word??!!?
No legal way to do that....but you could take your document to the library. Most public libraries have computers that have Word installed and you can use them for free. This will at least get you by until you can figure out where your install disks are or have the money to purchase new ones.
Reply:i cant help bout the download. but heresa thought. Pen and paper were invented before a computer. i will let you think about that one and come up with your own conclusion
Reply:There is NO legal way to download MS Office. Sorry
Try OpenOffice.org. It will read all your MS office documents and you can download it for free.
www.openoffice.org.
Reply:if windows does work, you can use, wordpad for text documents,

MICROSOFT BUG: "MICROSOFT WORD" why?
Open
1. Go to Microsoft Word
2. type "=rand(200, 99)" (without the quotes)

==%26gt;This is something weird At Microsoft the whole Team, including Bill Gates, couldn't answer why this
happened!%26lt;==

here you go, i did some research on it and found this.
http://channel9.msdn.com/ShowPost.aspx?P...
apparently is a feature that displays the sentence "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog" which displays all 26 letters in the roman alphabet, so you can see how well the formats work with each letter.

Microsoft Office Document Imaging.... Error with Office Service Pack 3... is there a known fix??
I'm trying to assist an employee who uses the Microsoft Document Imaging tool to print and send files to other clients who don't have MS Word or Excel installed. The problem we get is, whenever clicking on the file menu in the document Imaging software, we receive an error message:
AppName: mspview.exe MSPView Failure. Apparently, there is a known issue with Microsoft Office Service Pack 3 causing the problem, as this occurs only when SP3 is installed. This occurs only when viewing a .MDI file in the document imaging application. The error message causes the application to close completely.
The problem we have with this is, this employee already has several files in the .MDI format that he works with. Before he has me convert them all to .PDF (which would probably be the best solution), we was wondering if there was any known fix for this problem. Dont try searching google or support.microsoft.com, as there is very little relevant info google, and absolutely nothing on MS Technet.
Microsoft Office Document Imaging.... Error with Office Service Pack 3... is there a known fix??
Maybe instead of using a .mdi file, you can save it as a .tiff file. It is still a tagged image, compatible with more (and by more i mean less recent) releases of Microsoft Office, and I believe you can still import them into a .pdf file. The last source gives you step-by-step instructions on how, in six Microsoft Office 2003 programs including Word and Excel, to save a document as a .tiff file.
Reply:The real problem is caused by a long file name in recent files of Microsoft Document Imaging.
To resolve:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\M... 11.0\Recent File List]
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\M... 11.0\Persist File Name] Report It
Reply:Try looking in the event viewer and posting the error codes with your question or better still, search Google and technet with the same error codes and events instead of the basic messagebox errors

Microsoft Publisher opens my Word document instead of Microsoft Word?
How can I change the default on my Microsoft word docs so when I open them they do not open in Publisher? I created them on Microsoft Word not Publisher!
Microsoft Publisher opens my Word document instead of Microsoft Word?
Right click on the document ment then look for "Open With......" You should see a list of programs for it. If word isn't in that list look for it with that "choose program" tab. Hope that solves your problem
Reply:right click on your Word file %26gt;%26gt; Properties %26gt;%26gt; "Change" (located beside "Open With") %26gt;%26gt; and choose Word as the program you want to open them with.
Now all your ".doc" files will open with Word!!
Reply:Hold the shift key pressed and right click on any word document.You would see the "Open with" option in the menu.Click on "Open with"(remember its different from Open option). , you would see a window/dialog box giving you a list of programs from which you could choose (click on choose program if you see that option) , select microsft word from the list of programs and also check the checkbox below which reads "always use the selected program to open this kind of file"
This would ensure that all word documents are opened using Microsoft word in the future.
HTH

Ok, so im writing books- and my spellcheck doesnt work. i have it programmed to work, and the options are set, but say if i type in this: "jhfnjs fjhs" it says that its a word. There's no little red underlining under the mispelled word. Or say if i type in a fictional name "Juriyala" for example, it says its right, when i know for a fact, it is not. So is there anyone that can help me get my spellcheck back!? i hate writing with no spellcheck- makes things alot harder! i even called the microsoft works number, and they didnt have an phone recorded options that help with microsoft word works. So can anyone help me?! please!!!
Microsoft Workers?!! HELP ME! I need help with my Microsoft Word Works Processor!!?
Open up Word. At the top menu click Tools%26gt;Options then click on the spelling and grammar tab.
Take a look at the options, "make sure check spelling as you type" is checked and "Hide spelling errors" is unchecked.
Reply:Open Word
Click on Tools
Click on Options
Go to the Spelling and Grammar tab
Check the box that says "Check for spelling while typing"

Microsoft office 2007 software?
I am thinking sbout but Microsoft Office 2007 Software Home+Student version. Will it override Microsoft office 2003 on my computer? Will 2003 be completely gone? Currently I need Microsoft Access in order to do a project for a class. Can Someone tell me alittle more about the new software?
Microsoft office 2007 software?
No it won't unless you tell it to. In the installer as you go through it will ask you if you want to override or something like that. Just choose the one that most looks like it would install it seperatley. I have the office 2007 trial and it works alongside my office 2003 install. i can still access both of them.
Reply:FYI....Home %26amp; Student 2007 doesn't include Access. You have to buy the Professional version to get the Access program!!! Report It
Reply:If you perform an automatic setup, it will delete and replace your existing office. Choose the custom option and specify that it is not to replace the current office. You will also want to choose a different directory to install it too

Microsoft R Works 8.0?
I looking into buying a laptop...upgrading to Microsoft(R) Works Suite 2006 includes Word or Microsoft(R) Office Home and Student 2007 is pretty expensive. (The former is 78$ and the latter is 147$)
How will it work with the included Works 8.0? I'm obviously not very computer savy, so user friendly is a plus. I have Microsoft Office Student and Teacher 2003 on my other computer, would Works 8.0 be a step down? And which would function better with Vista, or is that even a factor?
Microsoft R Works 8.0?
Works Suite is a huge step down from the Office Suite in functionality and features (not to mention the included applications). If you cannot afford to purchase the Office Suite, then download OpenOffice.org or Star Office, both of which are free and are compatible with the Microsoft Office formats.
Reply:I agree with the other comment. Works is a really cheap and aggravating version. I've had compatibility issues going from Works to Word and vice versa in the past and I doubt it's any better. Many of the features of Word are not available in Works. Home and Student 2007 was made especially for Vista (although it works on XP as well). If you are a teacher or a student you may be eligible for a discount. Here's a link to check out (hey it won't hurt)...
http://www.microsoft.com/Education/Eligi...
If you decide to go with Office Home and Student 2007 you should check out their free training site:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-ca/traini...
Click on the 2007 Office System (at the bottom of the page) and select the program you want to learn about. Before you do anything with the new Office 2007 check out the training called "Up to Speed with Word 2007" (it will save you a lot of stress).
Another great tool (and a quick way to check out the new layout) is the interactive Command Reference Guide:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/word/H...
Click on the Start the Guide button. Select any function from the old 2003 menu and it will show you where to find that function in 2007.
I love the new Office 2007 line. The upgraded graphic capabilities and templates are really easy to use and look amazing.
Hope this helps.
