Reply to Can you pass 8th Grade Math? in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

6 out of 10 (not bad for a high school dropout that has been out of school for 12 years and works as a packager putting paper in a box for a living making $9.50 an hour). Then you get ignorants like Citizen Cyberworld that think they are better than everyone else. As long as it makes them feel special I guess Ofcourse the test is childish, it's grade 8. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/imag

Reply to Who makes the best burgers? in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Best hamburgers is at Harveys. Char broiled and thet put what ever you want on it. The worst is McDonalds. It's not even real hamburger and they stick ketchup and pickles on it that soak through the bun. Plus they use that garbage Alberta beef that makes you sick and croak! God Damn Canadians! The best hamburger wrap is Burger King. Probably cause I work at the place that manufactures the wraper. BK whopper is what I'm working on now (12" x 16").

Reply to Why is the server ALWAYS busy? in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

This is the first time that I have seen that message and I've been on here since the end of last year. I finally got the registered version of WB4 not even 2 weeks ago and for the past 3 days I've seen the dreaded message. I thought maybe they wanted me to open up my wallet even more since they found out I was rich enough to get WB4.

Why is the server ALWAYS busy? in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

I have a registered version of WB4 and everytime I get on this site to look for new themes, after 2 minutes a "busy" server error message comes on. I never seen this message ever until now. This has been going on for 3 days now no matter what time of day I get on. Even at 3:00am the server is busy! Do they want more money? To get rid of this message and continue to surf, just send us more money. I thought that registering WB, I would get no problems. You can't get blood from a stone. ><img src="

Reply to Windowblinds screen keeps popping up! Help me Lord Jesus!! in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Even with a pirated version of XP, the activation security that MS has can be hacked. I know personally. No, I don't have a pirated version of XP because it came with my computer, but a neighbor of mine has and there is a way around the activation and still be able to have the service pack installed. I don't want to get into it because it's illegal, but yes - Windows XP is very easy to man handle. It too has a number of flaws <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/smiles/joke.gif" border=0

Reply to Windowblinds screen keeps popping up! Help me Lord Jesus!! in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

I'm registered!! I would like to first apologize to all you kind people on here. I was doing research on that Style XP and you guys were right. It was a "trial version" I was using and I uninstalled it from my PC and registered WB4. There are a couple skins that I enjoy using on here, but Style XP had something similar, I thought was free and being cheap, I went that route. That was a mistake so I decided to register WindowBlinds and now I am happy. But I am sorry for making myself lo

Reply to Windowblinds screen keeps popping up! Help me Lord Jesus!! in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

To answer a few questions for you kind people: Cavanaugh : I have 2 firewalls. The first one is the one built into WindowsXP which is directly part of my internet connection. The second is Norton Personal Firewall 2003. Alexandrie : Style XP is free through downloads.com. It's freeware. There is no BS trial period or annoying popups that destroy your computer like WB. I have read quite a few comments on here about Style XP not being freeware, but I have been using it f

Reply to Windowblinds screen keeps popping up! Help me Lord Jesus!! in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

It's not as easy as that. What exactly do you need to register windowblinds? As far as Tryzub - how is it that I'm a freeloader? I'm using a free program on a computer which I use for both personal and business use at home. Is it possible to have trial software with no annoying popups? All that does it get the user mad enough to quit using the program and not register it (which is something that a lot of people can't do anyway) I had to unload windowblinds and quit using it an

Windowblinds screen keeps popping up! Help me Lord Jesus!! in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

How do you get that annoying windowblinds registration screen from popping up. Everytime I re-boot my computer and almost every day it pops up when I'm in the middle of something important! I had to finally unload windowblinds when I was going something over with a client and that WB registration screen popped up. I have 2 firewalls (windows and Norton) on my computer with a popup blocker and it still comes up. It was really embarassing for me when I was trying to do business and have that annoy

"Of course ignorant Americans have to blame Canada for it" Actually, I was just joking... The power went out again just as I hit the submit button and I was going to add that I was just joking but it was too late. I hope I didn't make too many ememies over this. I am surprised that it even got posted. I was upset when New York's major blamed Canada, but our idiot Prime Minister had to open up his big mouth and so did the defence minister.

I didn't read what the bad comment was. I think it's sad when a person writes their own opinion about something and it gets removed because other people don't agree. What ever happened to free speach?!? Unless the person was being racist or threatening in anyway, there was no reason to remove it. We are all not going to agree with the same thing.

Reply to How did you meet your spouse or SO in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

I met my wife on the internet (www.matchmaker.com) 2 1/2 years ago. I lived in Edmonton, Canada, while she was in Near Toronto (the other side of the country). We chatted on the internet and then she called me everyday (a nice phone bill for her). A month later I moved to Toronto, leaving my family and friends behind. We moved in together right away and a year and a half later we bought a house and got married. I still get home sick all the time and have only been back home once in the past 2 1/

Reply to Stardock ripoff in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

I am not negative about stardock, I was just ticked off when they asked for a credit card number and I cut mine up over a year ago. I have been happy with WB and was excited about WB4. If I buy WB4 and let's say WB4.5 or WB5 comes out next spring (just for an example) do I have to pay extra for that or is there free upgrades for people that have bought previous versions? I'm sure I can find that out of their website but I am just being lazy. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/smiles/jok

Stardock ripoff in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

I have been using the shareware version of windowblinds for quite some time. I have been very happy with it and decided to buy the full version of WB4. Unfortunately, the company that sells windowblinds hasn't realized yet that not everybody uses a credit card. Is there a different way to pay for this or am I out of luck? Another question - If I can pay for it some other way, is that a one time charge I paying for windowblinds or is it like that Object desktop crap that I have to dish out money
