PC Running Slow or erratic? See here first!

[Worz]

I've made a guide to getting rid of spyware and viruses from your pc. If your pc is running slow or you get pop-up windows come up everytime you surf the web then you've probably got something nasty on it.

EDIT: Unfortunately, since we've changed our website again, the guide is no longer online. I'll try to sort it out at some point.

   Worz, need XP put on this old computer im using. Any chance matey?

[Worz]

Have you got an XP disk then

I can do it for ya but everything you want to keep off the drive would have to be burnt to cd or moved to another drive first as I'll have to format your hard drive which completely wipes everything off of it.

[Titch]

Gonna get one of them external drive things so once i do i shall move it all from one to the other 

[Worz]

Dunno if one of these is any good to you. I just bought one for myself cos it's cheap.

Cheers. Got Nicola's internet sorted yesterday. Got a Dongle from Car Phone Warehouse 

[Worz]

Dongal lol!

[Titch]

Dongles eliminate the need for a costly fixed phone line, allowing you to access the internet from wherever you are, with no plugs or cumbersome wires involved. Measuring about the size of a computer mouse, you plug it into your computer via a USB port, and if there is a 3G signal, you can start surfing almost straight away.   

i copied that from the web cos i didn't really know wot one was untill yesterday lol 
i thought it was somewhere in ireland

[Worz]

County Dongal lol!

Follow the steps below and you should be up and running in no time at all.

    * Open up your web browser
    * Type in this in the address bar then press return: You are not allowed to view links.

      You will be prompted to enter the Livebox username and password. The username is: admin. The password is: admin
    * Click on Security/Wireless Configuration
      Write down the WEP Security Key (26 Characters long)
    * Go go to the 360 dashboard
    * Select the System Blade/Network settings, Choose edit settings
    * Scroll down twice to the wireless section and press "A"
    * Your Livebox network name should appear, select the network by pressing A
    * It will then ask you for the WEP Key, enter the 26 Character key you noted down earlier in CAPITAL LETTERS and no spaces. DO NOT PRESS DONE AT THIS STAGE
    * Press the button in your livebox marked with a number 1.
    * Now press done on the 360

This should work but: If you are still getting the "IP Address Failed" message after doing the above. Try disabling the security settings in the Livebox.

Restart the Livebox then carry out the instructions above again. If it works ok, re-apply the security settings after you have successfully connected.

Once you have done all of this I would Recomend that you assign the ip address of your Xbox to pass through a DMZ as different games need different port forwarding this will erase the need for seperate portforwarding
