Computer 1 = Windows XP/source of internet
Computer 2 = Windows XP/wireless router
Laptop = Windows Vista/wireless router
Okay, I am trying to set up a wireless connection with file and printer sharing between these 3 computers. I had done this successfully in the past with the same computers but for some reason, everything is just all screwy.This is what is going on:
Computer 1: In My Network Places, it sees Computer 2 but asks for a user name and password to access. It will not, however, see Laptop. With the user name/password, I was never prompted for this before when all the computers were playing nice with each other. I have no idea what the name/password is.
Computer 2: This can see both Computer 1 and Laptop but again, asked for username/password, which I do not know.
Laptop: This, as well, can see both Computer 1 and Computer 2. I can access the files on Computer 2 just fine, no username password required. When I try to access Computer 1, i get an error message saying:
"'pc name'My Documents is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions. Not enough server storage is available to process this command."
I get this message with every shared component regarding Computer 1 from Laptop.
The wireless internet works perfectly between all the computers but the file and printer sharing is all out of sorts. Again, I used to be able to do this with no problems but not anymore. I checked the settings and from what I can tell, everything is in order. When setting up the network, I used the option of using a flash drive to sync everything. Not sure what to do at this point. Thanks for any input.

Open Question: Get answers from millions of real people.?
I have an Acer Aspire Laptop. I picked up the Vundu Trojan and could not get rid of it. So I had everything on my computer was removed, including Vista, and XP Pro installed. The laptop is now running but it seems slower. Windows is a bit slower as is the internet. I have an Orange Wirless Livebox router and can access the internet, but it is not as fast as previously. Broadcom is the wireless utility I now have, before it was Linksys. Having contacted Orange they say I am connected OK and all is well; but I am not satisfied and would like the same level of performance as before I got that bloody virus. Any suggestions?

Open Question: How can I see if someone is accessing the internet through my wireless connection?
I recently set up a wireless internet connection through my landlords router-with his approval. He gave me his password to get to it, but I''m not sure if anyone out there can also access it through MY connection. HE has a password, but I dont. Am I covered "under" his connection, or does my connection show up to someone out there as "free to use"? Should I put a password onto my connection so no one can access it? and if so, HOW DO I DO THAT?
Thanks

Open Question: Why can't I renew my IP address?
Something is wrong with my IP address, and it's not letting me access the internet on my Wireless Connection, even though the signal strength is fine.
I've tried going into that "cmd" thing and entering "ipconfig/renew," but it says "No operation can be performed on Local Area Connection while it has its media disconnected. An operation was attempted on something that is not a socket."
What does this mean, and how can I renew my IP address so I can access the internet?
PS--If you couldn't already tell, I'm completely illiterate when it comes to computers. I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing and I'm following random instructions I'm finding online on my other, much slower computer.

Open Question: Why is Bluetooth connection not working?
Hi,
I have a HP pavilion notebook with Windows xp installed.
I have LAN-EXPRESS IEEE 802.11 PCI adapter installed. It is working properly since I have been accessing wireless internet connection.
My questions are :
1) If I have a wireless adapter installed, does that automatically mean that the notebook can communicate with other devices using Bluetooth...?
2) I have 3Com bluetooth driver. But while installing the driver, I find that the installation box automatically shuts down before installation is completed. With a bit of research, I found that this usually happens when the wireless hardware is found to be different from what it is expecting.
Can you please suggest any other bluetooth driver which should work with my wireless hardware..?
Thanks
Will I not be able to use Bluetooth at all???

Open Question: Why are stories such as this blacked out of the news media?
Britain is a key link in the biggest ever international investigation into the production and supply of paedophile 'snuff' movies - in which children are murdered on film - an Observer investigation can reveal.
The key suspect in the inquiry, a Russian who was arrested last week in Moscow for distribution of thousands of sadistic child porn videos and pictures, was traced following the seizure of his products from British paedophiles.
Dmitri Vladimirovich Kuznetsov, a 30-year-old former car mechanic in Moscow, was identified after British Customs and police traced the origin of violent child porn videos found in the UK back to Russia.
Last week Italian police seized 3,000 of Kuznetsov's videos on their way to clients in Italy, sparking an international hunt for paedophiles who have bought his products. The Italian investigators say the material includes footage of children dying during abuse. Prosecutors in Naples are considering charging those who have bought the videos with complicity in murder. They say some may have specifically requested films of killings.
British authorities yesterday confirmed that scores of Kuznetsov's videos, produced in his small flat in Moscow's rundown Vykhino district, have been found in the UK. They are concerned that 'snuff' movies in which children are killed may have also been imported.
Around a dozen British men have already been arrested and charged with offences alleged to be connected to the Russian tapes. A second Russian child porn ring, which allegedly had a British distributor, was broken up earlier this year. The investigation into the importing of violent Russian child porn which led to the identification and subsequent imprisonment of Kuznetsov started about 15 months ago after Customs seized material coming into the country. Since then there have been dozens of other finds.
'We have seen some very, very nasty stuff involving sadistic abuse of very young children, but actual deaths on film takes it a whole step further. That is very worrying,' said one senior customs officer this weekend.
British paedophiles were paying between £50 and £100 for Kuznetsov's tapes, the officer said. Further fees were paid for access to a website that features pictures of extremely violent abuse.
Though two men arrested with Kuznetsov have also been imprisoned by Moscow authorities, only one of the three remains behind bars. Dmitri Ivanov was sentenced to 11 years for actually participating in the abuse that was being filmed. The others were released under an amnesty aimed at clearing Russia's overcrowded prisons.
When officers from the Moscow Criminal Investigation Department raided Kuznetsov's flat they found two boys in a makeshift studio. They seized a huge quantity of films and other pornographic material as well as lists of clients in Italy, Germany, America and Britain.
Last week Italian detectives moved in, following months of inquiries, and arrested eight people. The police searched more than 600 homes and say they now have evidence against about 500 people. Among the suspects were businessmen, public employees and a university student. Several of them were married, with children of their own. Hundreds of people are also under investigation in Germany.
The Russian videos, which had been ordered over the internet, were intercepted when they came into Italy by post, repackaged and then delivered by undercover police officers. They cost between £300 and £4,000, depending on what type of film was ordered.
Covert film of young children naked or undressing was known as a 'SNIPE' video. The most appalling category was code-named 'Necros Pedo' in which children were raped and tortured until they died.
Police in Russia and the UK believe that Kuznetsov and his associates have been in business for more than two years in which time they are believed to have recruited around 100 boys - aged between nine and 15 - to be filmed.

I say blacked out, because it has not been reported in any of the major papers or TV news channels.
CNN.com has confirmed that they were indeed actual snuff films being made:
http://archives.cnn.com/2000/WORLD/europe/italy/10/28/rome.porn/index.html
"CP" was the code word for ordering an item from a paedophile's "private collection."
The most gruesome, police said, was coded "Necros Pedo," in which children were raped and tortured to death.
Dmitri Vladimirovich Kuznetsov, a former Russian car mechanic, was arrested in Moscow for distributing thousands child pornography films that were traced back to him by British Customs and police and the Moscow Criminal Investigation Department. He was released in an amnesty to clear overcrowded prisons.

Hi, i bought a Samsung U900 phone on ebay which was originally an overseas unlocked model and i have 2 queries.. 1. When messaging i see no predictive text like i had on my old Samsung D600, and everytime i write 'the' it comes up with 'tgd' and there are many other words which i go to type that the phone interprets as giberish. Is there a way to fix this at all? My second querie is regarding the internet, the net just doesn't work, whenever i try to access it it says 'service unavailable'. Is there any way that i can enable the internet on my phone? I see it as a pretty important function and i'm just concerned that because it is from overseas perhaps the internet will never work.

Open Question: how do i get internet on my laptop?
im 19 and my parents have "grounded" me for the past 4 months. i know that sound lame but thats the only way I know how to put it. they basically took the internet away from my laptop around May and havent put it back on yet. (Long story short, i changed their plan of going to a community college first and decided to go straight to a university [starting in january] which pissed em off)
anyways, I cant take it anymore. I hate using the family computer when I bought myself a [pretty good] laptop... so my question is this: since my parents already have a plan or whatever every month to connect to the internet then would I be able to purchase a separate plan with a different provider just for my laptop? so that way they wouldnt be able to have any access to it to turn it off? (yes, I would be paying for it)
and how do I go about doing this? (my dad is a computer geek but I never got that gene haha)
thanks in advance!!

IS there any other possible items that i need for the internet? also do i need the actual " opera browser " or any browser that is made by Nintendo or does the RAM act as it?
