If you are every ready to try firefox again you can download it from portableapps.com. It installs it all into one single folder without any parts in the registry. If you get sick of it or don't like it you just delete the folder and poof off your computer.

Oh and I would recommend installing Revo Uninstaller(free). I use it instead of the windows uninstaller. After the program you want to remove uninstalls itself it will search through the windows registry for all the remnants of the program and delete those. My windows installs seem to just run so much faster because of it.

Thanks wassupdoc, for pointing that out. *Steve sits back and shakes his head as he realizes that he responded to Rose using portable Firefox at the time and wonders where his brain was.* :roll:

Revo sounds good wassupdoc. Is it Vista compatible?

Thanks for those directions Steve - I got the feed renamed. I just about fell off my chair though when I saw 35 new posts in there :shock: I was only out for one day!

Some of those will be duplicates in one thread I think? - Yes, it looks like it from the list.

In that case I think I will probably prefer to come here and just go by threads, rather than by posts. I will try it for a couple of days before I decide for sure - there is the aspect of not missing any with that mysterious thing that happens where sometimes new posts don't show on the list. I guess that will be avoided with the forum link?

I'll consider that offer on the sit-down-beside me Steve. I plan to head over there for my 50th birthday to see a friend. This is in my just-over-10-year plan you understand. :lol:

Very cool. :) I'd love to meet you Rose, and with a little hard work, who knows, maybe I'll be down to see you before ten years out.

Well having made my way through the 35 original forum links, I am DEFINITELY going to ditch RSS for this particular board. A good half the links took me to the first page of the thread - on threads in excess of 2 pages, where the most recent unread post was either on the last page or near the end of the penultimate page.

Many of the others showed earlier posts as read, when I hadn't seen them. Whether this is something to do with which particular link I clicked for threads with more than one new post in I will never know. If I'm working from bottom to top, then I should be starting with the oldest.

This one is more trouble than it is worth.

And if you're down, we will make room for you to stay - love having visitors! And we have 6brms and lots of spare beds.

Hmmm.... Maybe I was looking at it wrong, but I feel like I saw the opposite problem.... I checked the RSS a couple hours after I'd checked the forums, and saw only a couple new posts on the RSS... but then when I got to the thread (I too got sent to the beginning of the thread), there'd sometimes be more than one new post, which I had thought would show as separate entries on the RSS. Maybe I'm confused though :)

Hi rose,

from the website(http://www.revouninstaller.com) faq
Can I use Revo Uninstaller to uninstall programs in Windows Vista?

->Yes, you can use Revo Uninstaller to uninstall applications on 32bit versions of Windows Vista including: Window Vista Enterprise, Windows Vista Business, Windows Vista Home Basic, Windows Vista Home Premium and Windows Vista Ultimate. 64bit support will be added soon!


just an fyi I use this, CCleaner, and adaware to try to keep my windows machine free of ads, remnants of old software, and just general junk(anyone wonder why i am thinking of switching over to a mac :-)

I did not know where to put this, so I dug up this old thread. MODS - please feel free to split to a new thread if you want.

Regarding the RSS feed for the YNAB Forum - My personal opinion is that the settings need changed so that a new RSS Feed is not issued each time someone posts in a thread. I only want to see when a new thread is started. Some days I end up with 100+ RSS Feed notices for the YNAB forums. That's a but much for me.

I was curious what others who are using the RSS Feeds thought of this.
