hit or miss for the most part. the indi hub has a lot of shit, then there are hubs dedicated to specific genres of music, and there there are movie hubs, etc.

I don't look often because it's hard to find good ones, especially since a lot of them you have to get a password and sign up for like the CM one... so yeah I don't know where a good place to look is, however, if you ask Melissa, I remember her saying she's on of a few different hubs.

indi hub is good, there is also a good punk hub too

Okay, another question...

Any extensions for Firefox that you'd recommend?

gmail notifier

adblock

there is a hack that i use to make the tabbed browsing better, but you could get an extention for that

Oh, also... Is there any way to allow sites like the CM to change the side scrollbar?

And is there any way to make the typing cursor look normal/smaller?

Also, is there any way to make buttons (like the bold, italic, underline etc... on the CM posting a reply page) not have these weird outlines?

i don't know. check the firefox boards if there are any?

Penguin Josh · Post by **Penguin Josh** » 12/11/2004, 8:25 pm

you can but it requires modding of the css files

with the extention chromeEdit, it makes it easier

Just noticing things that are different about Firefox that I don't particularily like.

I mean, the little typing cursor partly covers the last letter typed!. It's annoying, because if I was to type something like a lowercase "L" or an exclamation mark, I can't even see it.

Penguin Josh · Post by **Penguin Josh** » 12/11/2004, 8:31 pm

you will have to edit the usercontent.css file to fix all that

Axtech · Post by **Axtech** » 12/11/2004, 8:31 pm

What changes do I need to make with ChromEdit?

Penguin Josh · Post by **Penguin Josh** » 12/11/2004, 8:33 pm

Going back, to find single mp3 files or videos or... well, a lot of other things... WinMX is good. You'll usually get what you're trying to download instead of something else.

Holy shit I've just been bombarded with so much pop ups and shit that I'm considering boycotting the use computers for the rest of my natural life.

I have AdAware, SpyBot, and Hijack This (as Korzic recommended in the other thread). Any other suggestions? I also have Symantec antivirus. Spybot finds a coolwww search, but won't get rid of it. I know there has to be a way.

Well, you could try actually scanning with each of those programs first...
