I forgot the good stuff.
I forgot to tell you all the good stuff! My DH messed up my computer while I
was gone so I got a brand spanking new computer. I am in love with it! Now if only I could fiqure out how to get rid of all those annoying pop-up messages. Also, I had planned on visiting every quilting store in sight while in northern Ontario but couldn't find any. Those poor people are quilting-store-deprived. You heard it here! I'm sure that should be a new medical diagnosis. BG Apparently Thunder Bay has one but the only time I was there was to get off a plane or get back on one. However, I met a truly wonderful lady who wanted to get rid of her fabric collection. She gave me all her quilting fabrics. It is truly the best SEX I ever had. It was free! LOL Susanne |

If you get the latest Netscape (or get a Mac and use Apple's Safari
browser ;^) ) you can easily disable pop-ups. Susanne wrote: I forgot to tell you all the good stuff! My DH messed up my computer while I was gone so I got a brand spanking new computer.

Popup, shmopup. No quilting stores??? ai-yay-yay...
Head east to Montreal if necessary, the fabric stores have enough decent prints. Don't bother with Winnipeg unless you are prepared for $20 a metre for Hoffman or any big names. Mitchell Fabrics is the sole exception (and my grandmother shopped there...) in Wpg. You're better off with the mail order--you will pay GST & PST from the US but you get anything you order. If you want to know who has a good scanner for online purchases, I would prefer to tell you separately from this list--I don't want to offend anybody selling fabric. If you get REALLY desperate please let me know and I will make up a care package from the stash that is being edited. The stash REALLY needs to lose some weight...

Which kind of pop ups do you mean? If you mean those gray box "messenger
service" pop ups email me and I'll tell you how to get rid of them really easy. You don't have to download anything, just change a couple of settings. It doesn't matter what browser you use, they're not browser related. Kathy in Ks. "Susanne" wrote in message . ca... I forgot to tell you all the good stuff!

Well, okay. On Widows 2000 and XP you need to find the Administrative
tools. In XP open the control panel and click on "performance and maintenance" and then administrative tools. Open that and then double click on "services." Scroll down the list until you get to "messenger." Click on it to highlight it and then right click on it. Click on properties. In the box that opens up there is a little drop down menu arrow beside where it says start up type. In the box it says automatic. Change that to manual or disable. Then below that there's another area that says service status, click stop. Then click applyok and you're all done. No more nasty gray box pop ups!! You'll still get all the web site advertising pop ups though. The instructions for windows 98 are a bit different. Let me know if anyone wants those. Kathy in Ks. "Neeej" wrote in message ...
