Dear Neversoft, when will the new changes for the board be made?

I anticipate a few weeks before the "initial" changes... but don't quote me on that.

Dear neversoft.

My Add/Remove part of windows is FUCKED.
I got software on the PC that isn't in the add/remove and most annoying of all
Almost all the things that ARE in there don't have a REMOVE option (or any options) They are just listed with ...
"Used... Rarely" even next to programs that i use all the time.

Whats up wit dat ?

Tricky one without remoting into your PC and having a butchers but I suspect one of the following:

1. You're logged in as a "Limited User" rather than with an admin account.
2. The "Application Managment" service is disabled (check by going start>run>services.msc) set it to manual.
3. Your registry is fucked.
4. Something even whackier is fucked.

Check the first two and if you still have problems, check your event log for anything pertaining to Application Managment or permissions problems (or anything else so long as it isn't obviously unrelated) and let me know what you find (dump the log and pm me with it if necessary).

In all fairness, if 1 or 2 aint the answer you're possibly looking at a reinstall of Windows.

Check your PC for weird shit using HiJackThis and a decent trojan/malware/virus scanner cos either your PC is beyond cunted (see my previous answer) or something is possibly "hooked" into your PC that is attempting to launch with certain types of application. You could also attempt to re-install Windows Installer:

quote:
1. Click start>run>cmd

2. In the Command Prompt window type the following:

attrib -r -s -h
c:\windows\system32\dllcache
cd c:\windows\system32\
ren msi.dll msi.old
ren msiexec.exe msiexec.old
ren msihnd.dll msihnd.old
exit

3. After Exiting from the Command Window Reboot your PC

Or re-install Service Pack 2

Did you find anything in the event log that looked troublesome (start>run>eventvwr)?

So, in summary... Either you're infected with some hideous malware that has spannered the Windows Installer and is hooked into the registry so that it attempts to launch whenever you launch an application or Windows Installer (or worse) is bent beyond recognition and you need to take a hammer to your OS.

Dear Neversoft,
I feel that I am not big enough and considered using creatine to solve such an issue. Would you reccomend taking this course? I plan to use while taking weight training in school.

Also, what do you do for a living?

Creatine will help bulk you up so long as you stick to the work-out routine, otherwise you'll just turn into a fat fuck

I do server support for a massive IT company... You know, exciting stuff
