Remove your files and profiles manually, then delete your windows user account. Create a new one, and use one of the many delete utilities (Like Hard Disk Scrupper) to wipe out the present free space so they cannot be recovered.
If you work for the NSA, that might not be good enough, but it should be for the majority of people.
Their wallet, checkout, or whatever really does suck.
As a merchant, I've found Google Checkout to be quite useful. It's API has more features than Paypal's, and it's Order Processing interface is far superior to any other I've used. It allows me to send multiple tracking numbers to a customer, which Paypal STILL does not allow. Searching and archiving is far easier in Checkout. And don't forget about speed. Paypal's site is abysmally slow, while Checkout is lighting quick in just about every function. Generating reports is immediate, while Paypal makes you wait anywhere from 10 minutes to 24 hours.
That being said, their Help and Support is virtually non-existent. No phone support whatsoever. Email support is usually canned answers only. You'll find many forum posts of Google Checkout users begging for help and rarely finding it.
Checkout definitely needs help, but it has Paypal beat as far as merchants are concerned. Now if only it had Paypal's market share...
When I got the opportunity to teach a programming class for the local Home Link group, I chose Javascript because of the network lockdowns that the admins had put in place in the classroom. That way I avoided running into any permissions problems or having to reinstall a compiler or JVM every time we had a class.
It worked great as a beginning course. The ability to just run the script in the browser, and to build something "cool" in a matter of minutes, really opened their eyes to a whole new world on the computer. A number of them have gone onto getting their CS degree, which is rather gratifying.
I agree completely. It's a bit like the Borg from Star Trek TNG. They weren't on the show often, but when they were, it was usually an "event". The Daleks are no longer an "event".
2. Will Facebook (or conversely Google) allow me to run both AdSense and FBAds concurrently or will I have to pick one or the other (see #1).
Precisely the problem I had when implementing Yahoo's contextual ads back in 2005. Google did now allow them to be shown on the same page, so I ended up doing an A/B test for half the site to see how they would compare.
Yahoo repeatedly failed to provide ads that were actually relevant to my site, which resulted in low low clicks, and in turn, very low return. I quickly returned to Adsense.
... will it work? Yahoo! tried this back in 2005 and it failed miserably. Too much promised up front with too little returned. Publishers dropped it like a potato before Yahoo! could improve the contextual workings to increase the CTR. I know because I tried it, and quickly discarded it.
Lesson is, don't promise something you can't deliver, or are planning to deliver at a later date. Odds are, publishers will return to the "tried and true" and never look back.
... then it might be really interesting. Just like the Blackadder's retelling of the classic absolutely stood it on it's head. If it is just Dicken's tale spoken in Klingon, forget about it.
It also uses far fewer processes and system resources than AVG, which is important for my older system. I'm not sure if that means it isn't as capable as AVG, but I have yet to experience a problem with it on my Windows box.
That particular puzzle was originally created for online players working together, hence the weird 15 minute wait. That way there was enough leeway for online players to coordinate to solve the puzzle. When the plug was pulled on Uru Online, Cyan had to re-adapt the expansion for single player.
Why they didn't rework this particular puzzle remains a mystery, but I'm sure budgeting had much to do with it.

You don't see a 'Hello world' program requiring a 3GB+ build footprint do you?
Some come close though...
We already know how this plays out...
... touch this!
Since they're pumping out versions as fast as Chrome, why not do what Chrome does and make the version # irrelevant?
How many people know what version of Chrome they're running? I sure don't know. But Firefox trumpets the "new" Firefox on every release.
If you're going to do a rapid release schedule, you've made the version number meaningless to your average user.
It is a bit surprising considering Gabe worked at Microsoft for many years.
"is really just a Photoshopped image the company planted on his computer." ....
yeah, the courts will buy that one. Didn't work for this guy.
What about the remake of The Secret of Monkey Island? I thought it was terrific.

I hope not. It's the only Linux distro I can make work with my funky hardware straight out of the box.

Does this preclude my Google search habits?

I believe Sherlock Holmes already showed that a substitution cipher isn't that secure.

A place with no advertisements, no light pollution, and few cars sounds good to me.
I think what the AC is really looking for is Sark.
Takh bakh o takh bekh? (Apologies to those who actually do know Klingon...)

I guess that means that Vinyl will never truly die, even if/because we will.
How do we feel about NSA spyware in all of our infrastructure?
ummm.... NOT GOOD
I find your lack of Salt disturbing...
