MC Prussian Posted 31 October 2006 Posted 31 October 2006 OK, here's a tricky question: My two drives won't read neither blank CD-Rs, DVD-RWs nor DVD+RWs. However, it's working perfectly fine with regular DVDs or CDs. What's wrong?
Rincewind Posted 31 October 2006 Posted 31 October 2006 I've had this before. I think it appeared on the OS a while back. Anyway on one site I use I keep getting a prompt to sign in with a password. It is from Cpanel. I have found out that Cpanel is useed by owners/admins of some sites to access them. The part I'm trying to access is just a chat page so isn't that important as a lot of it is banal anyway but its OK for boredom releases. Norton does not see it as a virus at least it hasn't indicated it has one. I've tried a search and deleting but it just returns. Any ideas of removing it? I've seen messages on the sites messageboard about it but the ones that run it are not very active in running it and tend to disappear.

MC Prussian Posted 31 October 2006 Posted 31 October 2006 because there is nothing on them....... Joker... I mean the drives don't even recognize the blank discs, usually you have a CD-symbol popping up straight after you've inserted the disc, telling you that it's ready to write on.

I mean the drives don't even recognize the blank discs, usually you have a CD-symbol popping up straight after you've inserted the disc, telling you that it's ready to write on. hairy just told you the answer. however, if you load a blank cd into a media player to burn (copy) something, it will be recognised.
The People's Hero Posted 31 October 2006 Posted 31 October 2006 i didnt advocate mixing antivirus programs at the same time. use several, but only enable one at any one time. not all paid or free anti virus programs find every virus. spybot, ad-aware and spyware blaster are not anti virus programs. you can run as many of them as you like. microsoft anti spyware actually put spyware on my pc. TPH, you can download mcafee, norton and many more anti virus programs free at microsoft. Sorry mate, was referring to the updates in virus definitions, thought you had to pay a subscription?
lookwhaticando Posted 31 October 2006 Posted 31 October 2006 Sorry mate, was referring to the updates in virus definitions, thought you had to pay a subscription? You buy the software (Norton AV or Internet Security for example) and it entitles you to all updates for that program over the course of the subscription period (typically a year). Norton has a decent pricing structure for this kinda thing - if you bought Norton IS 2006, you can upgrade to IS 2007 quite cheaply upon expiration of your subscription. Once you've got your foot in the door, it's nowhere near as pricey to update your subscription each year. Be warned, though, sluggish PC's and Norton/McAfee don't mix terribly well - as in, startup takes a little longer as the programs initialize (the firewall software is the culprit).
Lets Be having You Posted 31 October 2006 Posted 31 October 2006 NOD ANTIVRUS,is the best,trust me,we use it in our workshops,AVG,freebie is ok if you just go online to get email,other than that its as good as a chocolate fireguard.as for norton,its fine if you have a pc with enough RAM to run it,as for spyware,we use,spysweeper,does what it says on the box,Happy surfing Guys & Girls
