Still Setting Records!

Our new "Learn Windows XP" software is turning out to be our all time best seller - and it's still going like crazy! If you missed out, you can still get in on this deal!

Again, this software uses multimedia presentations to show you exactly how all of Windows XP's stuff works. You can scroll through topics in order, or jump to a topic index and select the exact presentation you want to see.

And the presentations are absolutely fantastic. By using audio and video, they teach you exactly how to do just about anything you'd ever need to do in Windows. Every step is shown on a sample screen within the program. It's like having Bill Gates sitting down and showing you - step by step - how to operate Windows. Every mouse move, every click is shown. No guesswork required!

It covers tons of topics, and is packed with information. Even taught me a thing or two :-) It's a must have if you're running (or about to run) Windows XP!

Your price on this is only $12.97 ($29.95 retail) and US shipping is free! And yes, it has our 30 day satisfaction guarantee - if you're not happy, return it for a refund. Nothing to lose, but lots to gain! Here's the link:

PS - We've had hundreds (and hundreds) of orders for this already, be sure to grab yours today!

Q:
How do I set my computer's clock?

A:
To set the time, just double-click the clock in your system tray (your system tray is located on your taskbar, opposite your Start button). A "clock screen" will be displayed.

You'll see a box under an analog-looking clock where you can click on the hour, minute, or second.

Either type in the correct time or use the little up and down arrows to do so. That's it.

Tip of the Day

Ever need to make more than one choice in a list box? (A list box is basically an item by item list. You've probably seen them on web pages or in computer programs you've used. Outlook Express uses a list box to display its list of messages.)

Here's how:

1. Click the first item on the list you would like to have selected.
2. Next, while holding down the SHIFT key, click the last item you would like selected.

That's it, the first and last selected items are now highlighted, as well as everything in between.

OK, so what if you just need specific items selected, not whole sections?

That's easy too. Hold down the CTRL key while making your selections. As long as the CTRL key is down, you can click select individual items on in a list box.

Note that not all list boxes support multiple selections. You can experiment with this technique using the list of e-mails in your inbox with a program like Outlook Express.
