3 AnswersOther - Careers & Employment1 decade agoWhat movie features aliens masquerading as humans with inverted knee caps?
The movie is about aliens repopulating Earth with themselves, secretly, by disguising themselves as humans. When they reveal themselves, their kneecaps invert and I think their arms fold out even longer.
One of the characters is a black boy about 12-years-old, who lives next door to the protagonist. He's an alien who is spying on the protagonist (I think he was spying).
There was a sequel and the 2 movies were sold as a box set in bargain bins at Walmart, etc.
2 AnswersMovies1 decade agoWhat's the name of the famous classic book where the guy is poor and becomes rich to get the girl?
I need to figure out the name of the book but I'm drawing complete blanks. I read it in high school, but I completely forget the name of it.
It's about a guy who wants to get the girl, but he's poor and she wants the status and riches. He works hard and becomes a rich bigwig, but by the time he gets there she's already engaged or married to another guy and doesn't accept his advances.

1 AnswerOther - Television1 decade agoNavigation bar and file/view/help toolbar is missing on Firefox?
I'm running a PC on Vista.
All of my navigation and other options have disappeared in Firefox. I can't even find the option to enable the navigation bar.
From top to bottom I have:
Bookmarks
Tabs
Main Window
Status Bar
The two most important sections are missing: Navigation Bar and the bar that has File, View, Edit, Help, etc. I've tried going through the Control Panel, right clicking the icon, right clicking the program in the start menu, right clicking the window on the taskbar, etc.

6 AnswersVideo & Online Games1 decade agoHow do I prevent spider bites / rid my apartment of an infestation?
I live in a basement apartment in Seattle. Starting a few weeks ago we started to see a huge increase in the amount of little spiders we've seen around the house. Along with the spiders came an increase in little itchy spider bites similar to mosquito bites.
The other night I was watching TV in the living room with all the lights off and I saw one descended onto my arm from the ceiling through the TV light. I also found one with a barely visible web above my bed.
My roommate claims she's killed three crawling on her in the mornings over the last week.
Is there something we can spray or some other way to prevent the bites we've been getting?
PS. I know what flee bites look like and I know how to check for bedbug infestation - this is neither of those.

The owner has no site registered at the address and the domain is set to expire in about a month. should I wait for the domain to expire and then register it, or should I contact him and offer a small buyer's fee in hopes that, knowing someone wants the domain, he doesn't renew his registry and camp on it for much more money than I'm willing to spend.

I have a cheap alarm clock that I would like to use to power other components instead of the internal speaker. Where can I find information online on how to identify which components I need to remove, replace, or alter?

4 AnswersCar Audio1 decade agoWhat's the name of the place often referred to where lazy, fat, immoral people resided in Roman times?
The name of the place is on the tip of my tongue, but I can't get it to come out. It was where the people would sit around and eat and drink wine and be lazy all day and would have orgies at night. I think it might have been a mythical name applied to Roman times.
I think it's also sometimes used as a derogatory term towards LGBTs.

It only happens some of the time. Nexplore.com is session hijacking my computer. I tried searching for it, but I'm not finding any solutions for removing it.
3 AnswersSecurity1 decade agoWhen I search Google and click on the results, sometimes I'm redirected to another URL. Do I have a virus?
It redirects me to another URL and then my address bar scrolls through about 6 other URLs before it settles on a random foreign site. Then if I go back to Google, do the same search and click on the same link, it will go to the actual page that I was trying to visit.
Do I have a virus, or does the site I'm trying to visit have an advertiser that is session-hijacking?

2 AnswersCountry1 decade agoWhat country song is about an unassertive man who's girlfriend is raped and he gets his revenge?
I was listening to the Adam Corolla show back in December and he was talking about the 10 worst songs of all times. One of the songs he mentioned was a country song about a guy who is "unassertive" and some bullies that he grew up with in high school come out to his house and rape his girlfriend. Then the guy goes back to town and shoots and kills the three guys in the bar they hang out in.
What song is that?
