  • I have computer problems...?

    It's possibly a virus but it doesn't affect other computers. I've had internet redirecting issues for a while and my mother purchased Norton 360 to help out, so that was fine for the most part. However, whenever I shut the computer down, I couldn't restart without it deleting the Norton stuff. I've had the problem several times and eventually I just stopped shuting down, but just now it happened again and instead of Norton, it got rid of my recently reinstalled iTunes.

    Other than that, the only other problem is that my computer won't work with my printer, but I think if I uninstall and reinstall it it will work again (that's what I did with iTunes.) No documents are harmed or anything, I'm just scared that if this problem keeps occuring, real viruses might invade me and ruin everything...

    If this has ever happened to you, if you have any idea what this is, if you know what will work to get it to stop, or any information what-so-ever will be useful!

    Thank you!

  • I have a few questions about source citations?

    Firstly, one of my sources (a book) says "Published by New American Library, a division of Penguin Group Inc." Do I use New American Library or Penguin Group as the Publisher?

    Secondly, a website does not list a publisher but it does show the founder. Should I use the founder's name or should I just write n.p.?

    Thanks!

  • John Locke Philosophy Question?

    You don't have to go to the link but http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/locke/ says that 17th century philosopher John Locke believed that all humans have Necessary Properties and Accidental Properties. (Accidental ones being those that could be lost without affecting survival and necessary ones being those that were absolutely needed for the person to exist.)

    I was just wondering if you could list a few specific examples of each. What ARE these properties???

    Thank you so very much for your help!

  • Please help explain this quote!?

    "Many books require no thought from those who read them, and for a very simple reason: they made no such demand on those who wrote them." ~Charles Caleb Colton

    I'm supposed to note how this quote is applicable to an analysis of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein... I will be able to do that on my own as soon as I'm certain of the quote's meaning.

    So please just simplify that quote as much as possible for me! Thank you very much!

  • Community College Questions...?

    Hello,

    I will be a senior in high school in a few months and lately I realize the need to choose a school and work on scholarships and so forth... However, I don't know anyone that I can ask for help so I was hoping you could help clear a few things up...

    Firstly, I am strongly considering attending a community college (benefits being: I completed the A+ Tutoring Program and earned 2 free years at community college, I could use this time to take any general education courses I need, as well as figure out precisely what I'd like to major in).

    So my question is: would attending the community college be well-advised or should I go straight to a 4 year university after I graduate?

    Secondly, I am an above average student and I'm quite certain that I could receive several decent scholarships.

    The major question I have is: Would scholarships take affect when I transfer from the community college to a 4 year university?

    Those are my major concerns for now, and if there is anything else you feel I should know, it would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

    Do you have any inside jokes with your best friend? Brother? Sister? Boyfriend? Girlfriend?

    Inside jokes amuse me, especially if I don't completely know what they are, so just give a quick two or three words if you can.
