    remote root

    I have many helpbook.helpindex files that make reference to "typedstream", "SKI_USE_REMOTE_ROOT", "SKI_INDEX_DATA", etc. I don't even like the sound of remote root. I've had problems that I've never been able to work out. Could this be something bad going on? Thank you!

    Can't clean install

    How to turn off sounds in webpages

    Can anyone tell me how to prevent music from playing when I access certain webpages? It's really annoying when I go to some pages and suddenly loud music (that I'd never in a million years listen to) comes on. I know with IE there's an option to turn it off or on, but I don't know how with...

    I'm having a problem burning a DVDRip.AC3 movie. It burns but without sound. I've downloaded the codecs so there is sound when I play it with QuickTime, but there's no sound when I burned it. I'm using Toast Titanium. Thanks! P.S. I'm new to Mac so don't leave anything out!!

    Have I been hacked?

    I've bought a Mac Mini a couple of months ago because I'd been repeatedly hacked using Windows XP. I'd been told that Mac's were hack proof. I swear the day I got this, I had a user named Troy logged on. (Troy as in trojan?) I've made many attempts to do an erase and install, talked to...
