  • .edu sites won't load at my house, but work fine elsewhere. Why?

    Any site that ends in .edu will not load at my house, on any computer. This problem has been going on for several weeks now. Why is this happening, and how can I fix it? I am in college and I cannot check anything as simple as my university email without driving a distance to a different computer on a different network. HELP!

  • Does this sound like SHINGLES?

    I have a rash on my abdomen wrapping around to my back that is somewhat in a line, with clusters of small bumps. It is extremely red but not swollen. It is sensitive to touch when material, such as my clothing, touches it, and it is slightly uncomfortable to rub it.

    What I've read about shingles it is supposed to start with blisters, but mine started with a rash which looks more like poison ivy.

    Could this still be shingles? And if so, is it contagious?

  • Virgin Mobile Kickback Codes?

    I got a kickback code, tLX7e6V6, from Virgin Mobile and they say I can get one free hour of air time. If someone else enters this code, do they get points too? Can I also enter someone else's code and get points? This is all new to me :\

  • Is it food poisoning?

    For over 48 hours now I have had really uncomfortable, and sometimes very painful, abdominal cramps, diarrhea on and off, nausea, and loss of appetite. However I feel those things for around 30 minutes or so, and then I feel pretty fine and actually very hungry. Food still tastes good, it's just I start to feel sick again later. My parents and I have eaten all of the same foods and drank the same things before I started showing symptoms, and they are fine. I also hadn't even left my house for almost a week when I began to feel sick.

    Could it be food poisoning? If so, what should I do?

  • Accutane users... Help, scared... (little gross)?

    I just started using Accutane about 5 days ago. Last night, I had a bowl movement and it looked like there was blood in the stool. This morning, I had another small bowl movement and there was no blood in the stool (this is gross) but it looked like there was blood where I wiped. I think I may have slight rectal bleeding. Is this a severe enough symptom that I should stop taking Accutane and be scared?

    Please help, I've done some research but I'm just not sure of what to do. Thanks.

  • Photoshop users, help?

    Okay I have some pictures stored on my Photohop and I cannot take them off. It says if I close the box, they will all be lost, but in order to save them I have to go online and register or something. Is there a way to take the pictures off Photoshop to move them to another folder on my computer?

    I really don't know anything about Photoshop so if you can put it terms like I am stupid, it would be much appreciated.

  • Netbook users: Primary or secondary laptop?

    I have an Acer Aspire One netbook, and I use it as my main laptop. I have a full size laptop, but I just love this Aspire One.

    Anyone else use their netbook as a primary computer?

  • You decide: The greatest All-in-One phone ever?

    The Pomegranate phone is like no other. Some of the features include:

    *Music Player

    *E-mail

    *Full browser web surfing

    *A built in camera/video recorder

    *A projector for movies/presentations (HD widescreen projection onto any surface)

    *Language translator (speak into one side, translation comes out the other side - 50 languages)

    *A built in electric razor to shave on the go

    *A harmonica (for those moments when you wish you had one, but never seem to)

    *A built in coffee maker (device sucks in hot water, insert a specially made coffee packet, 30 seconds later delicious coffee)

    Does this sound like an amazing invention or what? It was all the buzz online before people started realizing it was a gag ad. It is actually to draw attention to a tourist site for Nova Scotia.

    My question is this: Were you disappointed when you realized this phone is actually a figment of someone's imagination? And does this seem as if it is false advertisement?

    Also, do you think we will have an actual device similar to this in the not-so-distant future? (Minus the harmonica, I hope.)

    And... DISCUSS.

  • Does my laptop have a virus?

    I'm using Firefox browser right now and it keeps closing randomly with no warning. Then, after it's closed, a new folder icon appears on my desktop that's named "Client Security Solution". I scanned the folder before I opened it and there was no threat, but the folder was empty...

    This has happened several times within the last 45 minutes or so. I'm running a virus scan right now but so far nothing has been detected. Is there something wrong with Firefox or my laptop? Or am I being too paranoid?

  • Acer Aspire One 8.9-inch Mini Laptop - good investment?

    I'm thinking of buying one of these laptops. They're very small so they're portable, and the one I'm looking at is less than $400. Are these good computers or a waste of money?

    By the way I'm a college student and I need a smaller computer to take to classes and everything, that's why I'm considering this size laptop.
