Prickly-you should hire a kid in your neighborhood to help you with hoses and sprinklers. There's no sense breaking your health just to keep some plants alive in a drouth. If you have a xeriscape, those low water consumption plants should be able to survive many weeks without water. As far as water rationing and high water bills, I feel all your pain. As a former resident of Colorado, I endured over 20 years of water rationing, "water-waster" citations, and dying lawns and gardens. To add insult to injury, in winter after a snowstorm we were required to have our walks shoveled by noon. If the snowplows came by after you shoveled and piled snow up on your sidewalk again, tough noogies, you have to go out and shovel it again or you get a ticket. We didn't even have an aquifer to draw from, Denver is a high desert and all of our water is piped in from the western slope and California, for which we paid huge bills. One suggestion that might help a lot of you in San Antonio who are experiencing this, get rain barrels and use them to catch runoff from your roof. If your HOA won't allow them in front of the house, use them in back. DH and I have been using all of our runoff water for the gardens this year and it has been a good thing since we had no rain for nearly three months. We're on a well and watering the yard and garden from the tap is out of the question for us.

you might try installing it in safe mode that way no other programs would be running and it might go through easier. But javacool has a specific forum set up in Wilders so I would suggest going to the Spywareblaster forum and posting there. Javacool is very nice and would probably love to know about the problem so he can try to fix it if it is a conflict. Here is the link SpywareBlaster & Other Forum

For those few users of Outlook 2002, I got one or two updates from the Microsoft update site for Outlook 2002. I think it/they addressed the security problem related to interactions between Outlook and IE7 restricted sites. Outlook 2002, has been working fine, and IE7 has been busy re-populating the restricted site list, I also returned Outlook to HTML, from RTF, and Outlook is still working fine. There is no noticeable delay in typing input for reply to incoming messages.

that is what I was expecting to hear but I was very surprised after explaining to them what data mining was and having them look at some things on google I did not get the you are in the dark ages line, but they know I am heavy into computers and computer security so maybe they considered that (and the fact I am the one they have to call when they have a problem). I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. And as you said if you have good kids with good smarts they can understand the issues. those little third party apps and stuff like say Christmas Cheer for example if you read the fine print you see just how much info you are signing away! Plus most of them that put out those 3rd party apps and games for facebook have no listing of their terms of service or privacy policies anywhere.
