Hi, First of all, you *really* need to do something about that CAPTCHA image on the signup. It took me about 15 attempts to get it right ;) The fonts are all weird - and its near impossible to decipher it with such a small image :p Ok, heres the question =) I've got a dual screen setup on Vista (and "extended" screen).

I have a program that's supposed to start when I boot into Windows (Vista Home Premium, SP2). However, I get a message that says it's blocked - so, I have to go in and unblock it manually. Is there any way I can set it so it unblocks (or doesn't block at all) by itself?

I have enough problems with my system that it might be corrupt - in more than one place. This is just a guess. However, I have over 100 apps installed and would hate to have to reinstall all of them with their specific settings. 1. How can I tell if my system IS corrupt? 2. If it is, what is the EASIEST way to get back to where I was before it became corrupt? 3. Is there a way to un-corrupt...

I get the above message whenever I run CHKDSK /R. There are over 20 entries that read: "Index entry xxxxxxxx.yyy in index $I30 of file 18703 is incorrect." The file name is different for each entry but the :$I30" and the "18703" remain the same in each entry. I have no problems with any specific app - but I have no sound at all. CHKDSK doesn't seem to find any other problems. I do have a...
