New column posted

It's Thursday, so there's a new "LangaList Plus" column posted at WindowsSecrets.Com. this week, it covers:

  • XP's 'other' Explorer can be a CPU hog: A bad naming decision by Microsoft means you have two different "Explorers" on your XP system. Here's what to do when the lesser-known one starts causing trouble.

  • Recovery Console won't load at startup: Goback, two other problems the likely cause.

  • Firewall 'Allow/Deny?' prompts cause confusion: "Quiet" firewall options that don't pepper users with Allow/Deny requests.

  • Change your default program for viewing images: And this same process can be used to change any file associations or "Open With" dialogs that aren't working the way you want.

Want to have a question answered in that column? Use the "contact" info at the end of the column to send in questions you might like me to try answering. And you can also rate the content to let me know how I'm doing.

Yes, the newsletter the column runs in is by subscription, but there's no set fee. You pay only what you think the content is worth; whatever you pay that one time gets you access for an entire year.

Your support there helps me keep the lights lit here. :-)
