Browster is a plugin for your computer, that allows you to instantly see search reults, without leaving the page you are on. Looks very promising. I would definitely give this a tryout.
Swarm the dot com is a website that shows what other people are looking at on the web, right now, in real time. It would seem that most people are either on Google searching for porn or already at the porn sites. I guess a couple of people look at the news too :)  From a post on Download Squad.
What does windowsrootsystem32hal.dll mean when it pops up on your computer? It means you're screwed! That's the message I got a couple of days ago when I turned my comnputer on in the morning. I said wtf? and turned it off and turned it on again. Same thing. I turned it off again and tried to boot into safe mode. No deal. I looked it up on another computer, on Google, and found the answer. Somehow my windows boot file had become corrupt or destroyed. How is anybody's guess. Anyway it seemed like an easy fix except for one thing, I needed a copy of Windows XP and I didn't have one. With all the computers I have, I didn't have a single copy of windows in the house. So I had to go and get a copy of windows and then rn through the steps to get my computer to boot into windows again. The moral of the story? Buy a freakin' Apple computer next time!! Just kidding :) The real moral is to back up, back up and back up your computer on a regular basis. If your computer hard drive crashed or became corrupted, how much critical information, photos, music etc..... would you lose?
