I cannot access tons of websites. A friend in Orissa is facing the same problem. How about you? 

Spidey's new costume from "The Amazing Spider-Man 2," now filming!

 

MS staff

There was a pilot flying a small single engine charter plane, with a couple of very important executives on board. He was coming into Seattle airport through thick fog with less than 10m visibility when his instruments went out. So he began circling around looking for landmark. After an hour or so, he starts running pretty low on fuel and the passengers are getting very nervous. Finally, a small opening in the fog appears and he sees a tall building with one guy working alone on the fifth floor. The pilot banks the plane around, rolls down the window and shouts to the guy "Hey! Where am I?" To this, the solitary office worker replies "You're in a plane." The pilot rolls up the window, executes a 275 degree turn and proceeds to execute a perfect blind landing on the runway of the airport 5 miles away. Just as the plane stops, so does the engine as the fuel has run out.

The passengers are amazed and one asks how he did it. "Simple" replies the pilot, "I asked the guy in that building a simple question. The answer he gave me was 100 percent correct but absolutely useless, therefore that must be Microsoft's support office and from there the airport is just a while away."

Is Windows a virus?

No, Windows is not a virus. Here's what viruses do:
They replicate quickly Okay, Windows does that

Viruses use up valuable system resources, slowing down the system as they do so okay, Windows does that

Viruses will, from time to time, trash your hard disk Okay, Windows does that, too

Viruses are usually carried, unknown to the user, along with valuable programs and systems Sigh... Windows does that, too

Viruses will occasionally make the user suspect their system is too slow (see 2) and the user will buy new hardware Yup, that's with Windows, too

Until now it seems Windows is a virus but there are fundamental differences: Viruses are well supported by their authors, are running on most systems, their program code is fast, compact and efficient and they tend to become more sophisticated as they mature

So, Windows is *not* a virus

What's the difference between Bill Gates and Robert Tappen Morris, Jr.
(the Internet Worm Hacker)?

Robert Tappen Morris, Jr., got six months in jail for crashing 10% of the
computers that Bill Gates made $100 million crashing last weekend.

So, here is the thing. I have around 350 bucks in my prepaid account which I want to finish up before I try migrating to Vodafone.

The fastest way I guess would be to subscribe to a 3G plan. I am currently on the 98 rupee EDGE plan which would be renewed on 3rd November.

So, what I want to know is… How do I subscribe to a monthly plan costing around 250 bucks on 3G. Questions…

1. Do I need to unsubscribe to my 98 rupee plan?
2. How do I apply for 3G activation?
3. How do I select a 3G plan meeting the above requirement?
4. Do I need to change APN? It is currently set to airtelgprs.com I think
5. Anything else I should know?

Hoardings banned in Chennai?? Thats strange. I didnt knew this. Any particular reason??

Could anyone suggest some good connections to opt for in Salt Lake, Kolkata, specifically near Karunamoyee?

 

I'm currently on an Airtel connection and I'm getting out of this connection as sonn as possible. It used to be so good and now it has turned into a headache..

From last 1 year i am happy with this plan and exactly @ 11 pm my speed changes up  to 2 Mbps and sometimes it changes at 9 pm as well.

 

 but in the last  1 week  3 Times my speed did not change to 2 Mbps and remains at 512 Kbps (i waited till 1-2 am , tried restarting modem )

 

I live in South delhi , I asked my friend who have similar plan and live in North delhi and he is also experiencing similar problem from some time.

 

I called Mtnl office nothing happend as usual.

 

can somebody explain the issue and when it will be resolved..?
