    I just saw on the news this morning that all Milwaukee area stations have been broadcasting digital and analog simultaneously since 2004. I’m guessing the analog and digital broadcasts come from different antennas but on the same towers.

    Time to hook up that converter box and see what it looks like.

    Wow has this strayed.

    If you’re worried about idenity theft, I know State Farm has $1,000,000 of coverage for just $25 a year. Cheap insurance. I use it.

    I have noticed that my public profile does not hold the HTML formatting that I had entered. The first half of the paragraphs run together while the remainder lists out per line like it should. I edited the data inserting additional line breaks and it looks right on the preview but still doesn’t display correctly on the public profile page. I didn’t check to see if there was any problems with the INATN import.

    Try removing everything from your profile and then submit it. Now that it’s blank, go back and put your html and text in again and resubmit it. This worked for me.

    I love the placard, thanks.

    If anyone wants to try and break in either of the cars we use to cache, they’ll just hear our alarms, which should stop anyone. If not, I’m insured.

    Are there any good camping areas nearby?

    So far so good. Monster power, very comfortable, and I think I could uproot a Redwood with this truck in 4WD. It makes my Jimmy seem like a child’s toy.

    I’m glad to see this change being recommended. I hope it passes.

    Congratulations Mike, Leigh, Mechacacher and LittleK on an awesome cache! Spelunking at Question Point was such a blast. It’s one of the only local caches we’ve been back to 4 or 5 times.

    If you have kids, take them to this cache!!!

    Again, congrats to the whole clan!

    If you have system restore enabled, you can easily put the system back to the state it was at a given time. If it’s malware, the files will still be on your system, and will need to be found and deleted. If it’s just a bad update, this would be the easiest fix.

    Still, the best place to start is following DeeJay’s advice. Open Task Manager right after re-starting the computer while the offending process is still running.

    Don’t know why I didn’t think of that.

    It took care of the problem, but before I did it, I took Daves advice on boot-up to see what the issue was. My AVG (anti-virus) looked like it was stuck in a loop. What it was doing I don’t know. But after doing a system restore, the problem is solved.

    I re-downloaded all the updates but the one giving me the hassle and everything is good.

    Now, I’ve shut off automatic updates completely because it seems those updates cause more problems than they solve. This is not the first, but more like the 20th issue I’ve had in the past with updates. Seems every time I get one, it slows the system down.

    I think Bill Gates has his people write this stuff into software, just so he can sell more computers. I really do believe that! Either that or he has some of the worst programmers out there. IMHO

    Why these problems don’t happen with Apple, I’ll never know.
