John Heiter Posted October 8, 2003 Share Posted October 8, 2003 Other than Google, two of my favorites are: Online Conversion - convert just about anything to anything else. and Symantec Virus Library - anytime someone sends you an e-mail "alert" about a virus you can check to see if it's for real here before you go deleting stuff off your machine that doesn't need to be deleted.

Jeffro Posted October 9, 2003 Share Posted October 9, 2003 While on this topic, here is a wonderful online tutor that is FREE. It is for elementary school, middle school, and high school, althought it has helped many college students. If any of you are in school or have children in school, pass this one on............ I know MANY that it has helped immensely. It is EXCELLENT, and covers MOST SUBJECTS. BEEHIVE Jeffro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
