    Malware/Adware?

    There are many possibilities, but check the nameserver (DNS) settings on your computer are what the ISP told you to use (or set to your router). Also check the DNS settings on your router are what the ISP told you to use. There have been a few trojans which alter DNS settings (dnschanger being the biggest) where they hijack the adverts on sites you visit to point to other sites. They are usually quite good at doing this seamlessly so that you don't notice though.
  3. All the protection is for the buyer. If the buyer says he didn't receive it, ebay will just take the money back while it's in dispute and then decide the buyer was correct, even when the seller has proof. It's happened so many times to people that very few people I know still sell on it.

    Malware/Adware?

    None of our advertising partners do anything like this. Does it happen for other computers on your internet connection? Also does it happen when you are connected elsewhere? For reference, the advertising is the same as before the site was changed.
  5. We are meat machines. Members of our species judged unable to make good moral choices are less likely to breed. Thus intelligence, morality, altruism become survival traits and puts the lie to religions' claim of being the source of morality. Individuals cannot help what they do, but the species works to remove those individuals who do not make good choices from the breeding pool.
  6. Strangely, it also looks good with adverts (IMHO).
  7. I think this should have gone in a new thread to help others. It looks like the first time you open a thread on a mobile, it assumes you haven't seen the thread before and opens at the beginning. If you go to the last page then next time you open the thread it goes to the right place. A bit of a pain, but I'm sure it'll get fixed in a future version. I believe this doesn't happen in the app.
  8. I'm sure when I factory reset my S3 it warns me to remove the SD card first. Just checked and it says "You cannot view files on an SD card after a factory data reset".
  9. (I don't like the typeface they use on that site). I'm not sure what their point is. As Amazon and Google have proved that there is this market, why didn't any of the hardware manufactures suggest a revenue share model in the past? While I see a downside if devices are locked in to a market (Amazon) I find it hard to see a downside when devices remain open (Google). If manufacturers want to create higher priced devices then there will need to be something that they do that the market branded devices cannot. Apple still sell iphones when they have clearly not been the best featured / best value / most technically advanced for several years. There's no reason that the market can't support both market branded and manufacturer branded devices. There's still a snobbery market. Obviously my view is skewed as I'm pretty much in the "stock only" camp. Some people like touchwiz and sense. Perhaps manufacturers need to reassess their position on skins and give them value as "extras".

    This is off topic in this thread.
  11. As TheDon posted, this is pretty basic chemistry and physics. On what do you base your belief? Can you suggest a hypothesis to contradict the established science? Then we can try testing your hypothesis.

    Windows 8

    You used Linux and went back to Windows? I suppose it takes all sorts. Did you ever try a touch screen Linux? You can get an ubuntu installer for the Nexus 7 if you want to try it. This isn't the same thing as the full linux instance that runs as an app under android btw, this is a native OS install.

    Out of curiosity, what are you comparing it to?

    Windows 8

    It was a semi-serious question. I guess they are only offering it with Windows. Ubuntu would run nicely on that, either way up.

    Yuck, it's got stupid coloured tiles all over it. Is it available with a real OS?

  17. Genuine question, but are any of you having problems with the chat room? I'm surprised there are as many posts in this topic as there are. I know some people prefer the forum, but I'd like to know. Thanks. (For the chat room see the buttons at the top of the page)
  18. I think you need to footnote that figure with "claimed". I still don't get 3g at home on 3 out of the 4 networks and yet 3 out of 4 claim coverage here. Also for the next 6 months at least, very few people will go for the extortionate rates EE are offering. For me, LTE won't be useful until it is ubiquitous enough to consider dropping my broadband at home, until then 3g when I'm out and about is enough. We are several years from that and it's possible it'll never happen. You know better than to talk about LTE like it's the same everywhere. All the US carriers have implemented it differently due to the laughable spectrum allocation policies of the FCC. There are carriers using 700MHz, 1.9GHz and 2.5GHz for LTE at present and t-mobile are going to use 1.7GHz. To sell an unbranded phone in the US, it would (potentially) have to have 4 radios just for LTE.
  19. They were indeed a great network. The part about selling off towers doesn't have much truth though. T-Mobile sold their towers many years ago and leased them back. If any towers were decommissioned after the merger, they would have been ones originally owned by T-mobile, not Orange. Obviously there may have been individual towers, especially co-lo's, where it was more appropriate to decommission Orange due to a lease tie in. My account number with Orange only has 4 digits in it and dates to 1994. I still have an OVP virgin SIM on the account with a zero line rental. I left them the second time they lied to me.

    hmmm

    Your syntax is wrong, but you can't link to attachments in your email. Someone would need to be logged into your hotmail account to see them.
  21. I though AOL would be first with the attorneys, but this isn't a surprise. I'll defend Microsoft from the point of view that I think software patents are wrong in general, but they've sued plenty of people in the past for much more flimsy patents.
