There MAY be some confusion in my FF fix that was offered to help Brian.
The profile that I removed and replaced that fixed the problem was
NOT a FireFox profile, but rather a Windows profile.
I removed my Windows profile (after backing up) and installed FF under a new Windows profile and all was well. The problem must have been attatched to Windows. Please try this Brian.
Mike:
Again great show! Especially that you brought back listener questions. I was geting worried that the concept was lost. I find this feature compliments your show and look forward to more.
PLEASE post all of the solutions that worked for this weeks questions.
We are curious… okay, I am anyway.
PS:
I learned the hard way that Windows services have DEPENDANCIES.
Save yourself an hour and check dependancies of services! Solutions realized faster than even Google.
