Yes, they work quite well, as long as you do not block the vent holes, usually on the sides. I find that they do not hold in the device' generated heat at all as compared to plastic/vinyl or canvas covers (Harbor Freight use to sell some recently, different sizes, meant for shop tools). Of...

What backup software did you use? From your description of how the pics are all in one folder and not in each of their own, the backup (or restore, it's one, the other or both) of the main folder did not include the option to "recurse" or include the subdirectories (subfolders). As for...

My brothers, sisters, in-laws and farmer friends drive Toyota diesels, from HiLux to 4Runners to pickups. One brother drives a Nissan Patrol. Used diesels are readily available in Australia. With the money saved compared to buying new, you can plan and stock ahead. Have a steering damper...

I look for aesthetic looking white/plain tea, hand or kitchen towels at the local 99cent stores and use them to cover our printer, fax and scanner. A good shake outside to remove the dust or throw into the laundry.

Microsoft Lifecams are great values ($20 to $50). Check Amazon and most have free shipping (if over $25 total for eligible products). Tip: Once you have successfully installed the webcam and started the application that uses the webcam (e.g., Skype, etc.) -- go into Task Manager...

I tried looking for a previous post from you on the same topic but could not find one. Did you get the BSOD during boot up from BIOS before Windows starts loading, when Windows starts loading, or after Windows has loaded? How did you back it up? Or, did you just create a restore point? How...

Add household bleach and the mixture will also kill bacteria, viruses, mold, mold spores, etc. 60-20-20 vinegar-water-bleach should do it. Add Tea Tree Oil (50:1, above mix-Tea Tree Oil) and nothing will grow back if there was something there before.

I needed to add three or more quarts between oil changes (3k miles). Used one can of Restore's Engine Restorer (chrome colored can with black/red letters) for eight cylinder engines with each oil change. Three oil changes later, down to half a quart between oil changes. This was after...

The low-end crimpers (Belkin, TrendNet, Lowe's, Home Depot's) are not designed for high volume use and will work okay in the beginning. What will wear out is the crimper's die, i.e., the "teeth" that push down on the copper blades pre-embedded in the plug to cut into the insulated wires. If...

You continue to type away because the program(s) you are using were copied form the hard drive into the PC's RAM/core/main memory. Remember, applications run out of RAM but have to copied into there, first, from the hard drive/secondary memory. Plug-in an external USB hard drive, use...

You can: 1. Create a rule that filters for e-mails where the From Line contains "@kinesthesiawidebreast" which will filter everything from that domain or 2. Copy-n-paste the subject line of the offending e-mail into another rule that filter for e-mails where the Subject line contains "’’’"...

Use a point-of-use line conditioner (APC, Tripp Lite): plug line conditioner into wall outlet, plug electronic devices into line conditioner. Line conditioners work well for brownouts and surges/spikes. I picked up a couple of used ones from flea-bay for use on the two circuits from our diesel...

... with a six-pack for company... yup, done that...

I never had much use for filter magnets... ... until I saw the photos posted in this thread... I use a magnet attached/press-fit into the oil drain plug and have had "good" results, but filter magnets, too, from now on.

Just stay away from open bath/wet cell HHO generators in general because of their inefficiencies. Dry cell HHO generators are the way to go. With both wet and dry cell designs, the bubbler (doubles as the last line of defence flash-arrestor) has to be designed so that there is minimal, if...

Agreeing with what buddy has stated, an automotive alternator has varying power output ratings (power = volts x amps, hence, if voltage is constant at 12V, it can be considered amp output) dependent on the rotational speed. "Rating" means that dependent on the electrical load, the alternator...

PM sent. Save yourself the headache, for now and later, and install a hardware firewall. We can walk you through how to set it up.

Try disabling proxy settings: With Firefox open, select "Tools" / "Options" / "Advanced" / "Network" / "Settings" / "No Proxy" Click [OK] twice. Close Firefox, then reopen.

Just curious but why are you using a proxy server? What is you home network (LAN) setup? 1. Internet modem/router to 2. Hub/switch to 3. PC/laptop via Ethernet cable/wireless

Until I installed my first hardware firewall (part of router/switch) many winters ago, I used Zone Alarm: www.zonealarm.com
