Bob, do you have Windows 7 Recovery disks as you have Vista Recovery Discs?
Keep your very good work... there is always something to learn, test, enjoy into your "My Shared Files" ;)
Hi Tech,
I certainly do. :)  You'll find them at:
http://mysharedfiles.no-ip.org/BootDisksForMostVersions/
Thanks. Downloading it.

How does Comodo Time Machine work in your computer?
If I'm not wrong, it was incompatible with some other application of mine in Vista... can't remember which one.

I'm not using it. I use System Restore and do a weekly backup using the built in backup in Windows 7.

Hey Bob,

Can you get me this?

http://rapidshare.com/files/157201878/Yahoo__Messenger_for_Vista_2008.01.11.428-Techie-Buzz.com.zip

Rapidshare won't work because there is a proxy here

Why aren't you downloading Yahoo Messenger from:
http://messenger.yahoo.com/   ???

The proxy might be blocking that too?

Remember this



This is a discontinued messenger specially build for Vista in mind

This can only be downloaded from RapidShare

And Rapidshare is blocked here

I was wishing Bob has this in his freeware collection

Thanks a lot  ;D

I am downloading it now

I have been trying to get this for ages.  ;D

This is the only Yahoo Messenger that works with both users that have administrative privileges and standard users in Vista

Yahoo 10 will only work in Vista for admins not standard users!

When I contacted Yahoo

They told me that it is a security feature of Yahoo 10  >:(

But I don't know the use of this  :-X

Why did Yahoo discontinue this version? I don't know

You're welcome.

But I doubt you need to be an admin just to run their messenger program, you just have to be one to install it.

Oh well, have fun.  :)

If it is true (which I seriously hope is incorrect, given that the posts you linked to are two years old) that you need to be an admin just to use it I wouldn't install it at all. Messenger accounts are the target for malware and simply put running as and admin account leaves you open for more serious problems as it inherits that permission level.
