11/15   Netscape and IE seem to want to launch apps (Acroread) inside the
        browser. Is there a way to make them launch outside? Thanks.
        \_ Download .pdf.  Run acroread on .pdf.
        \_ Go into your preferences and set them not to use the Acrobat
           plugin or activex control (or delete the plugin/control)

4/19    My Firefox 3.6.28 pops up a Software Update box that reads "Your
        version of Firefox will soon be vulnerable to online attacks."  Are
        they planning to turn off some security feature in my version of
        Firefox?
        \_ Not as such, no, but they're no longer developing this version,

12/9    Does anyone know of a good blogging software that can
        handle blogging entries as well as photo albums?
        Wordpress and the WP Gallery plugin is too tricky to
        configure easily. And please don't mention Facebook!

10/2    Is there any Adobe Flash plugin for Firefox 3?  I go to a site that
        uses Flash and click "install plugin", then it says Adobe Flash Player
        is not available.
        \_ Uh, yes there is. Download and install it yourself if it doesn't
           work.

8/18    so i have a bunch of tabs open in one firefox window.  i have a bunch
        of tabs open in another firefox window.  how do i combine them all
        into one window ?
        \_ Why would anyone use tabs? I don't use tabs, and I don't
           understand why anyone else would either.     -dim #1 fan
        \_ Install the Duplicate Tab plugin, and hit Ctrl-Shift-M.

3/13    Firefox 3 Beta 4:  Fast, cleans up memory good on minimize, stable,
        can install alongside FireFox 2.x
        Cons:  Extensions don't work and need to install beta versions, rich
        urlbar is nasty but as of today you can install oldbar extension
        Ah-nold would say:  Fuckin' fan-tah-stik!
