I have avg antivirus free and I recently responded to a popup that I thought was a normal upgrade. now my avg free icon has dissapeared and the avg zen icon is there. I have no way to run a scan.

I googled the problem and it seems avg has really scamed people into signing up for zen, just like I have.

Google says it can be fixed by uninstalling avg then zen and then downloading avg free again. The whole process is a bit complicated and some people have said they wernt able to do it. I doubt very much that I could do it, so Im just wondering if I should just leave it as it is?

Google said zen has made some computers run slowly and I have noticed mine is running much slower lately.

Sincerely, Z

Thanks again to all. I just dont get electricity. How about if I just leave it as it is?

Thanks for the reply Steve, but I dont get it.

My switches dont have a ground wire. There are just 2 wires, so there is only 1 way to switch them around?

A few years ago I had a real CU (fusebox) installed to replace the Issan style setup.

The first night after instalation, I noticed all the flouresent tubes in the house were glowing even though switched off.

The electrician came back and to fix the problem, he switched around the wires on each light switch and that did the trick.

About one year ago, I replaced the old kitchen light with a new 2 foot tube with electronic starter. Yesterday morning was the first time I have been in the kitchen in the dark since I replaced the light, and I noticed it was glowing.

I think I replaced the light switch a while back. Maybe I switched around the wires at that time.

If I switch the wires around again, would that stop the glowing or is something else going on?

Ive had a Mitsubishi ac for 12 years and very happy with it. Its completely silent.

I just bought another Mitsubishi and was surprized its quite noisy. After reading this thread, I went out and looked, and the new wall mounted unit has no rubber mounts!

Thai bank accounts are said to be insured up to, 50 million, (correct me if Im wrong)

What exactly does the insurance cover?

I havent seen the type of screw you mentioned here.

I have used expandable bolts here and they have always worked fine, even with the low quality blocks they make here.

Thanks for the reply.

My house is all concrete, tile, steel. It was cheap to build but not what I call attractive. Ive tried to add as much wood as possible. Furniture,windows, sala, etc.

Everything Ive built out of wood, Ive treated with Chaindrite and never had a bit of rot or a single insect.

I just think wood gives a warmer feeling.

Its a block wall.

Ive seen plenty of those expanding anchors, but none are long enoughfor a 2x4.

Ive seen the ones you mentioned that you can screw in threaded rod, but I didnt know what they were for.

That will do the trick,

Thanks Crossey

I want to put a roof over a patio on one side of my house. I want to build with wood and then metal roofing.

I need to attach a 2x4 to the block wall first. I did this on the other side of the house by just drilling a hole and bolting the 2x4 to the wall. I wasnt concerned about the bolts showing on the inside because it was in a store room. but this new roof will be outside of a bedroom so I dont want to drill allthe way through.

Any ideas?

Im just saying, Ive never had a CR. Ive always submitted a TM30 and got a DL renewal.

I thought a TM30 was a CR.

Yes

Im in Khon Kaen and I went to the police station and said I need a form to get a DL and they gave me a TM30. Thats what I used for my "CR".

It was simple, so I guess Ill try it again this year to renew my DL.

I just saw for the first time on TVF, a TM18 (certificate of residence).

Ive always been told I needed a certificate of residence for a driver license. But when I go to get one, at immigration or the police station, Im always given a TM30. (notification of house master).

Its been almost 6 years since my last DL renewal. Is this TM18 something new? And do I need one, or can I just use another TM30 for a DL renewal?

First of all you need to understand that happiness is an emotion, not a permanant state of conciousness that can be obtained.

happiness comes and goes, as does anger, sadness etc.

If youre always striving for happiness, you will always be disapointed.

Life can be crule. Some of us are dealt a better hand than others.

It helps to compare oneself to those less fortunate than those more fortunate.

I have a True satalite dish and the gold package.

Every time I get a new tv set, I have to take it and the set top box to True to have it programed to work.

Im just wondering if everybody does that or do you have True come to the house or can you program it yourself?

Last time, I got a big flatscreen tv, took it to true and traded in the old set top box for a new HD model. It took thier serviceman about 30 minutes to program the new tv. About 20 min was just to get a fullsize picture.

If it takes a professional that long, I cant imagine doing it myself.

Maybe switching to nitrogen might help?

I think my internet use is very basic. I read newspapers, watch youtube, follow friends and family on facebook,(but never post anything),visit forums, look up stuff on the internet, and use email, (Im very careful what emails I open.)

I dont know what it means to"install new programs", so I dont think I do it And I dont think I have any files.

I have AVG antivirus that I scan once a month and from what Ive read, Windows 8.1 will do a good job of protecting my computer.

I have one question. If I do get a virus, what do I do? Ive heard some virus can be dealt with and some are so bad you have to chuck the computer and get a new one.

Thanks

Thanks.

How do I launch ccleaner?

Ive had a new laptop and internet through a True aircard for 10 months now. Several months ago, on the advice of TVF members, I downloade ccleaner. I havent had any problems so far,(knock on wood), but I was just reading something about ccleaner that said it should be set up to run on a schedule, or something like that. All I did was download it and that was that. Am I all set or not?

Also, I was reading that the best defence to maleware was careful browsing. I assume that means staying away from porn websites. I have never been to a porn website, but are there other websites to avoid?

Sophon,

Thank you for that information.

Its a darn good deal, cheaper and easier for me.

Regards, Z

Im new to the internet and things take me awhile. I read dozens of posts and asked for advice on ACH transfers.

It took me a couple of weeks to set it up so I can transfer funds from my US bank to my BB account. I think it would take a few minutes for most people to do this.

After sending the trial transfers, I had it figured out and it was a piece of cake.

Last Friday, I sent my first transfer and it was so easy. Took all of about 30 seconds!

I transfered $3,000. Went to the bank today and my account was credited 105,730 Bht. That figures out to 35.24 bht to the dollar. Thats pretty dam good considering my bank used to charge me 3% foreign transaction fee.

The thing is, I dont see where I was charged anything by either bank. Only $3,000 was deducted from my US bank and at 35.24 bht to the $, that doesnt leave much room for BB to charge me anything. Im not complaining, I wish I knew about this a long time ago. This is definately the way to go.

I would like to thank Pib and the others who guided me through the process.

Respectfully, Z

The Thai birds where I live are smart. They build a roof on thier nests and stay dry during the rain.

I give my dog Heart Guard every month.

I read on the package it controls other types of worms also

My question is, Is the Heart Guard enough, or should the dog have additional medication for worms as well?
