Post by Penguin Josh »

This is a thread that everyone can ask thier questions about computers and thier softwear, and stuff like that. It would be apreciated if someone would make it sticky so people don't keep making new threads but whatever.

Is there a place I can download the good 'ol fashioned Microsoft Solitare???? I have this shitty ass freebie "123 Solitare" that I got from C-Net, but it just isn't the same.

Any clue? Or would one of ya's be willing to hub it to meeeeee?

I am sure someone would love to answer your question, but we like it when people type and use words. Numbers just don't cut it anymore.

I'm just fucking with you dude. Yeah, it's annoying though, so try to keep the numbers thing to a minimum.

Those usually only happen with XP, and I know Bethany doesn't have that. Do these pop-ups have anything in the title bar?
