  • Is this tumor benign or malignant?

    My cat has three legs (one had to get amputated because of an infected injury gone bad before we got him) and for the past few months now, a lump has been growing in the spot where his paw used to be. In July, he got surgery to remove it because it was getting so big. It is growing back and just today, I believe the stitches burst and part of it is exposed (looks bloody). I just want to know whether this could just be a benign tumor that wasn't completely removed during the surgery and is growing back or if it could be malignant. I haven't noticed any other abnormal bumps on him so that's what's making me think it's benign but I'm not sure. When the lump got removed in the surgery, they sent off a sample for biopsy and I remember my wife saying the vet said it was cancerous. But I'm not sure if she just misinterpreted the vet when they said it was benign. I just really want answers since I can't call the vet until they're open tomorrow.

  • Trying to open .ISO file in Windows 7 starts hundred of explorer.exe processes.?

    I'm trying to open a disc image file to install the contents but it opened a burner and thought I wanted to burn it to a dvd. So I closed it and opened the .ISO file with windows explorer, and then my cursor starts starts flashing with the little blue circle that shows something is loading and when I look in the task manager, there are hundreds of explorer.exe processes open and even more being opened every second. I logged out a few times to stop this from crashing the computer but I have no idea how to fix this. Just built this computer this past week and have had no problems. Although, I suspect it isn't really a problem with how I put it together and that it is probably just something I forgot to do software wise. Any help is appreciated, thanks!

  • How to retrieve gallium from water?

    I bought 20 grams of gallium and did a few experiments with it. I decided to melt it back in hot water and suck it up with a syringe and put it back in a container I can carry around. Only problem: there's water in the container as well. I need a relatively easy way of getting the water out. I'm also wondering if boiling the mixture of water and gallium to try and distill the water would be a good idea since they both have much different boiling points. Not sure though. Should I distill in a sealed container?

  • Task Manager disabled by administrator?

    Ok, so I've had a sneaking suspicion that my computer has been infected with a RAT for some time now. About three months ago, task manager stopped appearing on the CTRL+ALT+DELETE menu (I have windows 8) and when I tried to manually open it from C:\Windows\system32, it said specifically that, "Task manager has been disabled by your administrator". I own my own laptop that no one else uses, and I am the only user account, also have the user status of administrator. I've tried resetting registry entries that were meant to actually disable task manager but that never works. I've also been experiencing very bad performance for my computer (Asus G46VW). I've tried everything to get rid of a RAT but my last option is to just save my important files and wipe my hard drive. I'd really like to know if any experts out there know what could be causing these weird things, especially the task manager thing, and if that is definitely a RAT.

  • How Do I Add Chat Interests to Chatroulette?

    I'm sure most of the internet has heard about chatroulette. But there's something I cannot find out simply because it can't be typed into a google search! How do you make it so that you get matched up with say, someone that likes mlp. So you type in mlp as one of your likes and it connects you to other people with that like. The reason I want to do is this because there is a youtube I watch that does chatroulette videos where he meets his fans via this system. They type in his name as a like and he does as well. Therefor he gets connected to them and they can get onto his videos. I'm fairly certain this is a feature of chatroulette. But if it isn't, let me know if you are 100% positive and maybe I just mistook this site with omegle. Thanks in advance.

  • Team Fortress 2 Keeps Crashing?

    I have played Team Fortress 2 for a while now and about a week ago, it started to crash right when I started it. The valve logo would appear then it would say "hl2.exe has stopped working". The only temporary solution would be to completely reinstall the entire game and even then after maybe 20 minutes of playing, it would crash. I tried updating my nvidia drivers and that didn't do anything. Here's my specs if that helps:

    Laptop model: G46VW Asus Republic of Gamers

    DDR3 1600 MHz SDRAM, up to 16 G

    Nvidia GeForce 660m 2GB

    750GB HD

    Intel® Core™ i5 3230M

    Please help me out because if anybody plays TF2, I just got an unusual hat and I really want to show it off. If you can solve my problem, I'll trade you a crate or some other item in my inventory (if you play TF2) . Thank you in advance.

Is there a way to change the code in the minecraft launcher or something so that it uses tor browser to download the local files?

  • If you edit a file while it is being pasted, will the copy also be edited?

    I'm making a back up for GTA 4 for modding purposes. And It takes a long time to backup, I'm wondering if I install a mod into the original GTA 4 save file, will the copy of it also have that mod installed? This could be a problem because if I install the mod wrong and the game doesn't start or something equally tragic happens, I will have to reinstall the game from scratch, and that's very annoying.

  • Can't reset Windows 8 password?

    I recently bought a Windows 8 computer and I forgot my password (yeah, pretty stupid. I know). I'm typing this from my phone. When I set up the computer, it gave me the option of inserting a flash drive and giving it the power of resetting the password of any account on the computer. So I inserted the flash drive into the computer and the password reset wizard came up. I put in the new password and password hint and clicked next. But an error screen came up that said something along the lines of there was an error resetting the password. I tried multiple times to reset the password, even trying changing it to a different password, none of the attempts worked. If anyone has any idea how to reset my password, please let me know.
