AskWoody LoungerI don’t use Firefox.
Also, I had previously found timeanddate.com, but it requires linking to a web site, which is what I wanted to avoid. So far, Symmtime seems to be doing the job. And when I tried to download KenBF’s link to Microsoft Time Zone, it failed–3 times. That failure is a puzzlement. I’ll have to check into it when I get some time.

AskWoody LoungerThanks. I’ll take a look at it. Right now I’m trying out DocWatson’s link to SymmTime. We’ll see how that works.

AskWoody LoungerKen,
Thanks for the link. I’m a bit puzzled though since version 5.5 is dated March 2000, and version 6 is Feb. 2004. It seems that no one has done anything with version 6 after 5 years.

AskWoody Lounger>A short snooze during the day will boost your mood and your intelligence
Being retired, I “retire” a couple of times a day, but I’ve never noticed that my intelligence has changed. Of course, one of the negative things about retirement is that you never get a day off.

AskWoody LoungerIf someone doesn’t want to dig around in the registry, Revo Uninstaller Freeware would probably do the job. It provides a system backup, and then after using the program’s uninstaller, in this case TI, it delves into the registry and highlights all related files, folders, and keys for further removal. A user has four options in the uninstall mode, plus a number of other I’ve used Revo a number of times and haven’t had a problem.

AskWoody LoungerI’ve received two such warnings today. Interestingly, neither was from any banks I deal with. And I didn’t open them.

AskWoody LoungerThanks for your e-card. Lawson cards are very special. And Merry Christmas.

AskWoody LoungerRevo Uninstaller is good at removing any trace of uninstalled programs. I used it to remove old Gamin GPS software and then ran the Registry Cleaner in JV16 power tools, which found no remnants.

AskWoody LoungerI had the same card reader problem when I bought my Canon PowerShot A590 IS. I prefer to use a card reader so I bought Sandisk SDDR-99 ImageMate 5-in-1 Reader/Writer for about $20 (even less if you shop around). The card reader gives me more flexibility.
