Alive! Jigsaw v5.4 ~ Demo
http://www.yavsoft.com/alive/jigsaw.html
Ever desired to have a fun with animated jigsaw puzzles instead of
static ones?
This colorful game gives you such opportunity.
You will even be able to take any AVI movie or short film clip and
turn it into an impressively looking jigsaw with this powerful
jigsaw player/creator.
This feature can be turned off, if you prefer a more classical
approach.
The game introduces a new challenge for jigsaw fans but also has
options that make it suitable for kids and those who prefer less
challenge and animated images add absolutely new feeling to the
old family fun.

The Slip-up Archive
http://www.slipups.com
A slip-up is any inconsistency in movies, TV, books, or even
politics that leaves you scratching your head thinking, "Now,
what a minute. That isn't right!" For instance, in the movie
Grease, watch the beginning of the "Beauty School Dropout"
scene and keep your eyes on the waitress as she leaves the
room. Although she clearly misses hitting the light switch
with her elbow, the lights go out anyway!
Visit The Slip-Up Archive to look up your favorite movie or
television show and read about more errors, or submit one
that you've noticed to the database.
Be forewarned, however: the regular readers of this site
are a tough crowd. If your slip-up isn't a true blooper,
they won't hesitate to challenge it!

Multable Mailtos
Now that you have discovered how to make individual address
Mailtos we don't want to clutter up the desktop or startmenu with
them all. How about putting all your favorite mailto shortcuts
into a single folder on the Start menu, so you can open a
pre-addressed email at any time. First, navigate to your Start
folder at C:\WINDOWS\Start Menu. Then right-click in the window
and choose New, Folder. Give your folder a name that makes sense,
then drag any of the mailto shortcuts you've already created to
it. Now, you can open any of your mailto shortcuts just by
clicking on the Start menu and accessing the folder you created.

Antivirus software is a good choice to scan your system for
possible
viruses, however no virus scanner is 100% effective as
manufactures
cannot keep up with the rapid change of viruses that happens
daily.
Be sure to update yours regularly.

at times deadlines and information that is very important to

we accidentally misspost an item.
If you believe something to be miscredited, or you know the author
of one of the articles which we have posted as 'unknown', please
do let us know so we can correct the information where applicable.
Many times in a article you may see a click here for more
information, or to go to a link, these often will not work, as the
original information, was taken from a page with HTML links.
This is when you will want to go to the webpage indicated in
the article, ++ ,for 'the rest of the story'
***MfM*** indicates that I am adding my own information to a
particular article.
