 | Reset Those, Please! Back by popular demand! Have your buttons ever just disappeared? I'm talking about your buttons in Outlook Express. You know, the ones that say Create Mail, Reply, Forward, Send/Receive, Delete, etc. Or, also known as the buttons you really need to be able to get through your e-mail each day. Well, in case those ever happen to disappear on you and you've run out of other options in figuring out how to get them back, here's an easy way to remember. Just right click somewhere in all of the open gray area where your buttons usually sit and choose Customize. Then under the box that says Current Toolbars, click on the Reset button. All of your buttons should reappear and you can then be on your merry little way. Oh yeah! ~ Erin It's Friday, it's Friday! Make sure you keep reading to learn all about the new release of Flock 1.1 and everything that comes with it, find out how to easily find the function you're looking for in MS Excel and learn how you can pick and choose your very own themes with the Personas extension in Firefox.

Your Computer Called! It Wants To Run Faster!! Help It Out!!! AWESOME Program, AWESOME Price! $140.00 Worth of Software for JUST $10.97!!! LOWEST PRICE EVER!! How would you like to tune up that computer of yours? You know how it goes, you get the computer and it just flies, but over time things tend to slow down, files get messed up, programs take longer to launch, the registry gets filled with excess junk, etc. Bummer, huh? To help keep this from happening, we have an AWESOME program for your computer at an AWESOME price! It's called Fix-It Utilities Pro 7 and it's going to help get your PC back to it's old self! First off, this can tune up your computer and get it running faster. It has tools to make files and programs launch faster, free and optimize disk space, and it even has a tool that arranges your most frequently used programs on the disk for optimum performance! Just a few tweaks and you'll see a difference! First off, it has a ton of system monitors to alert you to potential problems before they happen. Stuff like hard drive monitors, hardware malfunction indicators, and diagnostic tools stop trouble before it starts. Should Windows refuse to start, this can save the day! You can create recovery CDs to boot a computer that refuses to, you can access important files on a problem system, repair corrupted system files, and more. It even includes an "emergency response manual" to help you get through the process. If I had a computer go down, this would be the first program I'd reach for! Oh, and you'll love this! Have you ever accidentally deleted a file that you really needed back? It's gone from the recycle bin and you're basically out of luck - unless you have this software! This has an excellent utility for recovering deleted files! I know I could have used that a few times myself! For day-to-day maintenance, here's how easy it is - One-Click Solutions - my favorite feature ~ you don't need to be a rocket scientist to give your computer a good "tune-up". One-click and you're on your way! See how easy the user-interface is: I gotta tell you, there are so many great features on this program you're going to love, here are just some of the highlights:
Sure I like it, but don't just take my word for how good this thing is, check out these rave reviews: "If your system is slowing down, crashing or simply won't boot, Fix-It Utilities from V-Com will help equip you with what you need to restore your PC to its former health. Not only for fixing broken systems, Fix-It Utilities contains many useful tools to help maintain your system's health and security." "Fix-It Utilities™ blows away the competition." Impressive, huh? But that's not all! You also get these two great bonuses FREE: PowerDesk® 6 Recovery Commander™ So, you're getting $140.00 worth of software for just $10.97 and that includes FREE shipping in the US!! This is truly an AWESOME deal! Check it all out here: http://store.worldstart.com/product.php?productid=3858 PS - This is one program that every PC user should really have in their arsenal. Not only can it keep your PC running at its best, but when disaster strikes (and it always does, sooner or later), you'll find this is one of the best investments you've ever made! Hurry!! Q: A: Let's kick it off with the good news! Yep, on February 19, 2008, Flock 1.1 was released and it is now available for download. The Flock team is very excited about this new release and they want you to test it out and let them know what you think. According to their Web site, they have been working on this for quite some time and they are very proud of the finished product. As with any new release, several changes have been made and a few new features have been added. And that's exactly what I'm going to tell you about right now! The first new feature I want to talk about is Webmail integration. Yes, it's true. Yahoo! Mail and Gmail are now both supported by Flock. What's that mean exactly, you ask? Well, now you have the ability to share anything in Flock from your Yahoo! or Gmail e-mail account. That includes photos, videos, RSS feeds and even material from your favorite Web sites. Also, with this new feature, you can make use of the Web Clipboard in Flock even more. For example, if you want to add a picture from a Web site into an e-mail, you can just drag the image to the Clipboard and then drop it into your e-mail from there. It makes working with your e-mail so much easier! Another new feature has to do with the Picasa photo program. If you're an avid Picasa user, I can already see you jumping with joy! With this new addition, you can upload your photos directly to Picasa through Flock. So, basically, instead of dealing with multiple programs at once, you now only have to worry about one. You can even view photo streams with Flock's Media Bar. The MyWorld application has also changed a tad bit. Yep, now you can name and assemble your very own MyWorld. How cool is all of that?! Now, I have one more new feature to tell you about and it is called the Friend Activity Feed. Once you've added all your friends to Flock (from Facebook, YouTube, Flickr, etc.), you can use the Friend Activity Feed to keep tabs on them. Their latest actions will go right into your MyWorld and you'll know right away what they're up to at any given time during the day. It's an easy way to keep up to date with all of your Flock friends! As you can see, Flock 1.1 is focused on giving you what you want and what you need while you're using the Web. With Flock, you can use all of your favorite services at once and with ease. There really is no better way! So, whenever you're ready to download Flock 1.1, just click on this link and click on the Download button that corresponds with your operating system. Then just follow the instructions and you'll be all set. Also, like I said before, Flock is always looking for your feedback, so go ahead and give v1.1 a try and then send them a little note to tell them what you liked or disliked. The feedback form can be found right here. Enjoy your new Flock! ~ Erin Have a question for the newsletter? Submit it at the link below: What Was That Function Again? Ever find yourself working in MS Excel and realize the function you want is right on the tip of your tongue, or in this case, your fingers? And there you go again. You have to open the Paste Function window and in doing so, you're probably taking your hands off the keyboard and back to the dreaded mouse to get to the Insert menu, Function choice. Or, maybe you're using the Function button. Either way, it's time consuming and annoying! Want a keyboard shortcut you can use for the Paste Function window? Yes? I thought you might. I mean, we can all use a time saver here and there! So, the next time you need to look up an Excel function, try Shift + F3. The Paste Function/Insert Function dialogue window will immediately open up. You can search for a function with a description at the top or just below that, you can select a category and scroll through the list it produces. When you've found what you're looking for, select it and click OK. For all you Excel 2007 users, you have yet another easy way to search for your functions. You need to take a look at your Formulas ribbon. Here you'll find that the formula categories are easily accessible. By clicking one of the categories, a list of those formulas will open for you to pick from. Either way, it's a way to put you quickly on your quest for that elusive function! ~ April
WOW! This Is Just Unreal! Run CDs & DVDs Up To 200X Faster! And Run Up To 23 Of 'Em At A Time! No Kiddin'! This is so cool - we have the latest and greatest version of VirtualDrive available now (and the price is awesome)! This software lets you run CDs / DVDs right off your hard drive! They run up to 200X faster than they do from your regular CD / DVD drive and you can run up to 23 of them simultaneously! I've been using it for awhile now and it's really fantastic. (I LOVE it for my map software - the redraws are almost instant!) In fact, this software is so good, I refuse to run my CD programs without it anymore! After all, I have 500 Gigs of HD space, why should I have to keep fishing around for CDs when I can keep them right on the hard drive? They run faster, never get scratched, are always easy to find, and I can run more than just one at a time. Once you get used to this software, you'll look at running CDs the old way like it was insane! How does it work? First, it creates a "Virtual CD ROM" drive in your computer. Basically, this software "tricks" your computer into thinking that you have another "real" CD ROM drive installed. Then you copy your CDs to your hard drive using a simple little wizard program. Each CD you copy becomes a "virtual CD" you can play in your "virtual CD ROM" drive. Just run the program to manage them. It's super easy. If you want to access more than one of your copied CDs at a time, don't worry. VirtualDrive 9 can create up to 23 virtual drives. You could run 23 CD ROM programs at the same time and never need to swap a CD! If you're a multi-tasker like me, that's incredible news! Look at the advantages:
New Features Exclusive To This Version: #1 "Virtual Hard Drive" feature that lets you use your system's RAM to emulate a hard drive and run your programs up to 340 times faster! Plus, since your virtual CD drive works just like a regular one, there's no learning curve involved. This software is very easy to use and everything is done with a step by step wizard process. You can be using it in a matter of minutes! This is one that everyone needs! Quit playing the "where's that CD" game and grab this now. This is the current version of the software and your cost is - get this - just $10.97 (Free US shipping)! This retails for $39.95, so you save nearly 70%! Check it out: http://store.worldstart.com/product.php?productid=3922 Warning - Once you try this, you'll never go back to the old way of using your CDs. Between the speed increase and not having to swap disks all the time, you'll fall in love with it (like I have). We've sold thousands of these! It's gonna be awhile before we can get another batch at this price - RUN to the site and grab this today!
Incredible Stand Magnifies Everything You Read! Never Struggle With Small Text Again! WOW! First off, I have to tell you why I love this item so much! My grandmother has macular degeneration (which means her eyesight is becoming impaired in case you haven't heard that term before) and we have tried so many different magnifiers to help her so she will still be able to read (she has four different ones at home right now aside from this one). Now, I'm not saying this is going to help everyone read or be able to see better that may have a problem with their eyesight, I only know that it has helped my grandmother immensely! So, we thought we'd offer it to our customers who may be in need of a similar item ~ these are really hard to find in retail stores by the way ;-) Not only can you use this magnifier on a flat surface as a stand magnifier ~ you can also use it as a hands-free magnifier by hanging it around your neck using the comfortable attached neck strap, freeing your hands for reading, sewing, model-making, knitting and more. The legs fold flat for convenient storage or when it's being used "hands-free" around your neck. This is really a great product and the price is phenomenal ~ $14.97 and that includes FREE shipping in the US! If you've priced any magnifiers, you know what a great deal this is! Get to the store and get yours ordered today! Or, be a good kid and order one for your mother, father, grandmother or grandfather ~ I guarantee they'll appreciate and love it! http://store.worldstart.com/product.php?productid=3623
New Firefox Extension: Personas One of the features Firefox users seem to love is the themes, right? I mean, we all get tired of the same old boring Windows colors after awhile. However, having a lot of themes installed in Firefox can sometimes slow it down as well. Even more, when Firefox has to update, it may have to update 10 to 15 themes, which can take a long time as well. So, how would you like a quick and easy alternative? Well, allow me to introduce you to Personas! What is Personas, you ask? Personas is a single Firefox extension that comes bundled with many Firefox themes for your browser. It updates and shuffles them around so that you have a fresh variety of themes every time you check. Sound good? Then let’s jump right in! 1.) Download the Personas add on from this link (scroll down and click on Install Now). You can then start the download by selecting Install Now again. 2.) After Firefox restarts, the Personas page will open. You’ll also notice a little fox in the bottom right hand corner. 3.) Click on the fox and a little list will appear with different categories listed, such as Most Popular, New, etc.
6.) If you look under All, there are several different themes to choose from. If you’re into sports, you can check out some of those themes. There's definitely something for everyone! There are also some nice patterns, as you can see here: There is something in Personas for everyone's style and I invite you to find yours. Enjoy! ~ Neil Patel If you enjoy our tips, tell your friends. That's what keeps this newsletter growing.

Better Nutrition: 10 Foods to Fight Inflammation Did you know that what you eat can contribute to helping your immune system fight inflammation? What you eat can also fight against your body, if you have certain conditions. To learn more about both of those things, be sure to read the introduction to the food lists. The first food list is a listing of foods that work against the body when fighting inflammation in certain conditions. The second list is of foods that work with your body to help fight inflammation. I was surprised to find foods listed that I actually enjoy eating. Not only does it tell you why the food helps fight inflammation, but it also gives you a few pointers on how to prepare it. After you’ve read the list of ten, you’ll be at the very bottom of the page. That's where you will find a link that will take you to a page filled with recipes for the food products on the list. You’ll find two recipes on the page for a very yummy looking blueberry and spinach salad with walnuts and one for a soup with sweet potato and spinach. So, the next time you face inflammation, I hope you’ll remember this Web site. Whether you’ve got a cut that is infected and inflamed or you've sprained your ankle and need to keep the inflammation down, these foods can help you out. Or, if you're fighting chronic inflammation, adding these foods to your diet can certainly help you manage it. Check it out today! http://www.betternutrition.com/document/624 ~ Amanda Do you have a cool, non-commercial site that you want to share?
