  1. Similar Problem on I Dream of Silence From My Web Browser? · · Score: 1

    When I am running AIM (aol instant messanger) It sometimes runs noisy, annoying ads. I was wondering if there is anyway or removing the ads without having to get a mod that requires an earlier version of the program.

  2. Re: What Should People Understand About Computers? on What Should People Understand About Computers? · · Score: 1

    I am 1 of about 4 people in my office that are computer literate, and 2 of the others are consultants and only here twice a week. Almost everyone else for that matter is below average, some even feel the need to call me to help them with such petty tasks such as typing a phone number in a word document, to print a file, and once I was even asked e-mail a file back the the original sender because it was the only copy.

    The fact that they dont even have this basic knowledge leads me to wonder why they have the job that they do.

    Even if there were a book perfectly written, where even the most computer illeterate user would understand, I gaurantee they would not read it. "Hey why learn anything when we can get the IT guy to do it for us?" That mentality is the problem. Laziness, but if we say anything to the boss... we are complaining about doing our "jobs". Its really sickening
