Computer Icons

(1/2) > >>

Bill Johnston:
2 things, first I registered and did not receive email conformation. 2nd is two part, first is what do the computer icons in the taskbar do and what do they mean? (there is 2 and I figured one is incoming signal, the other outgoing) And why does it seem that sometimes they stay lit up, and then they go dark?
Thanks

Bill....I am sure you will get confirmation , if not repeat the registration process......There have been some issues with the forum ......but the able administrator has most of them resolved.
On to the second part.......the small icons you see down in the lower right corner are indicating various things that are loaded and running....(click on each to see what it is) the two little monitors you see that go on and off are indicating that you are connected to the internet. ( what you are seeing is normal )

Hope this answers your question.

Bill Johnston:
You must excuse my inept ability to pose a queery. I think what bothers me most is that they go blank and the internet status stops (No incoming or outgoing) signals. When I try to download a picture the screen just stops and the icons are dark. After I hit refresh several times they will light upand it will then load pictures. I found a link from here I think it was and downloaded pcbugdoctor. I did what it said to do and it told me that I have corrupt files and missing shortcuts. Could this be what is slowing my downloads? For reference I use spywareguard, spywareblaster, Stopzilla, Avast, and Spybot. Maybe one of these is what is slowing it down? I also was wondering if pcbugdoctor is right, have you or an associate ever used this product and where you satisfied with the end result? Sorry for wanting to know so much, but I work too hard for my money to just throw it away on a useless product.
Thanks, Bill Johnston

Bill......The downloading problem.......is this something that has just started ?
I have PC Bugdoctor installed .....but I have to say I'm not all that impressed with it ......when it scans, it removes my icon on the desktop which I use to enable or disable my high speed connection.
Looking at what you are scanning with ........
I would add .....Ad-Aware to that....

When you D/l Ad-Aware ....be sure to click ....."check for updates" ( they update frequently)
What did pc bugdoctor say you were missing?

Bill Johnston:
This is what bugdoctor had to say:
Type                                Scanned                          Error
Invalid CLSID                  3387                                 15
Corrupt Help Files           35                                     4
Invalid Shared Tools       251                                   0
Corrupt Shared Files       1352                                 12
Corrupt Fonts                  338                                   0
Missing Short Cuts           198                                  10
Item(s) Scanned 5561
Error(s) Found 41

If need be I have (I think I still do ) Hijack this. I do not know the proper way to use it as another forum said something about saving it in its own file so it will not make back up copies of itself. I posted it on another forum, but got no response. I do not want to let it fix anything as I do not know what or how to do this. If it would help I can run it and post it and maybe if there is something wrong someone with experience could spot it. I do not know, maybe there is nothing wrong and my concerns are unjust? What do you think?
