  • how do I get rid of...?

    Uniblue Registry.dll I can't delete if from the Control panel or from Program Files on my old desktop PC running Windows XP? I can't install anything to fight it, because it shuts down & reboots the computer every 3.5 minutes. Please be kind enough to give me serious answers. Thanks!

  • What would cause an old desktop PC to keep rebooting its self?

    I imagine some component is overheating, which causes it to shut down, then when it cools off, it reboots after several seconds. The question is what specific component should I suspect? May I respectfully ask for serious answers only please? I promise to troll a stoopid question elsewhere so all ya'all can vent. Thanx.

  • who is the artist in this video?

    There is a video which shows a bedroom with a woman laying down on a bed, and the singer (a young African-American guy) keeps reaching out for her but he can't actually reach her because she is kinda slipping in and out of the scene. Then she sits up, and looks at him. It's from a while back, but it was really well done.

  • Why does Boeing advertise?

    I have seen ads on TV for the Boeing Corporation. The people who see the ads do not buy airplanes. Even if we travel by air, we don't choose an airline based on which aircraft they fly. We have no say in the matter. Or to put it differently, airplanes are not purchased based on spur of the moment reactions to advertising. The purchase of Boeing aircraft is a Corporate decision, based on studies and negotiations. Maybe it's just a tax write-off?

  • Is there any car made 100% in the USA?

    Many "American" cars are made in places like Mexico, because it's cheaper, and because of Union issues. So is there any car, regardless of manufacturer, where all of the components are made in the USA, and the car is assembled here as well?

  • They say only people with an IQ with 120 and over are able to figure this out. Are You one of them?

    This is a real question. If it looks stoopid to you, then I say -me too! But the brainy people I know say it can be figured out. So I am putting it here to cheat. Thanks!

    If:

    2 + 3 = 10

    7 + 2 = 63

    6 + 5 = 66

    8 + 4 = 96

    Then:

    9 + 7 = ?

  • is it true Banks have a Love/Hate relationship with poor people?

    Banks love poor people because they make tons of money from fees.

    If a person is poor, and can't get credit to have Overdraft Protection, they can bounce a check for twenty-five cents over what they have in their account, and the bank charges them twenty-five Dollars for having done so. If a poor person wants to buy a Money Order/Cashier's Check, a bank will charge them $5.00. If a rich person who can afford the five bucks wants to get a money order, the bank waives the fee, because they have $5,000 or more in their account. Also, a poor person is charged a monthly fee for having a checking account, whereas a wealthy person is not charged. Everything a wealthy person gets free, a poor person has to pay for. So banks hate poor people and punish them for being poor, but they also love them because they generate tens of millions of dollars in fees. Have I analyzed this correctly, or do I not get it? Serious answers would be appreciated.

  • Fifteen year old girl dies because father prays over her diabetes?

    He believed that God would take care of her. He was convicted of 2nd degree reckless homicide. So, two questions, really. How deep is your faith? and At what point do you stop trusting God, and start looking for Man to cure an illness or injury? No atheists, please.

  • wireless service says it's connected, but can't find server at Yahoo?

    I am visiting friends who don't have DSL, and just have a cell phone, no land line (so no modem). OK, I connect to an unsecured wireless network. It says connected at 18.0 MBS, connection strength Good.

    BUT then it can't find the server on Yahoo or Google or actually get working on the internet. WHY?

    BTW, when I go across the street to the Coffee Shop that has

    the same unsecured wireless network, it works fine. Same signal strength, same speed, etc. WTF?
