- How do I get rid of all those little, er, thingies on the right hand side of the menu bar at the bottom of my screen. I know they're something to do with stuff 'running on the desktop' or in the 'start up menu' or summat, but beyond that I'm foxed.
I have picked up some half-baked notion that all this stuff running when I don't need it is affecting my performance.
Is this right? So how exactly do I cull? And how do I know which ones I actually need or not. So my work PC seems to have a Java icon, an Intel Audio studio icon that I have no idea whether I need to be there or not... On my laptop there are MILLIONS more.
- I really really want to install Skype on my home PC again before Xmas. Last time I did it buggered up my Skype connection (I installed it only on my laptop, not on the main PC connected to the wireless router...)
Summat to do with Firewall settings...?
HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELP...
