]I find all these neat things in your mag, but trying to use your Find feature is frustrating![/b]

They never work for me either.Thanks also for the Mouse Pad,but most of the shortcuts don't work.eg : (Windows m) to minimize window.Yes i have a Windows Logitech keyboard.Windows then m opens the start menu at a name starting with m . :rolleyes:

It's supposed to be windows key + "m" at the same time ;)There was a search function specifically for find.pcworld numbers, but unfortunately they did away with it due to the number of complains from people thinking it was the regular search function. Oh well.if you type in find.pcworld.com/(article number here) and hit go, it will bring you to the page. It's more tedious than a search bar, but it's all that's there at the moment.

What Cosmo said. (thanks!)And we do hear a lot of complaints from people who used and love the "find" search bar for what it was intended... so we are working on finding it a new home in our site navigation.

Of course i did that Cosmos.I just tried W + m as a test.How accurate does it have to be ?m Thats Windows and m,same time.It doesn't minimize your website.Have you tried it lately ?:wink:

[Cosmo]

It works for me. I thought you were doing it wrong becuase you said something about windows then m :unsureI think in order for it to work, you need the keyboard that came with the computer, or one of Microsoft's keyboard.Try windows d instead. It does the same thing (windows m = minimize all, windows + d = show desktop).

It does the same thing (windows m = minimize all, windows + d = show desktop).I had already said i have a Logitech "Windows keyboard" If it wasn't it wouldn't have a Windows key with the logo beside the Alt key.Device Manager describes it as " Standard 101/102-Key or Microsoft Natural PS/2 Keyboard.But it's not worth this haggling,I can use my mouse.:D

I didn't mean a keyboard with a windows key on it, I meant a keyboard made by Microsoft. They would have all the shortcuts mapped to the keys before hand.If you want to, you could put it in yourself. I'd recommend using HotkeyP (Snapfiles clicky). This is a nice and powerful program that can let you map any shortcut you wish. So if you wanted to add your own shortcuts, say something like ctrl alt f opens firefox, then this is a great program to do it with.

Say the article number you have is 123456. Just type in find.pcworld.com/123456 into your browser's address bar.Or you can go to http://find.pcworld.com/ and type in the article number.

It's more tedious than a search bar, but it's all that's there at the moment.What's that? Where do I type in the findpc #? I just tried it in the Search box to no avail. Are you saying it's impossible to do now or is there some trick I haven't discovered?This issue is the whole reason I joined this forum. How do I find the online version of your gorram articles?

Thanks, Cosmo, for clarifying and providing that link.This is strange. 3 hours ago I typed article 57532 into my browser bar and got an article on AdaWare 7.0. Now, I get the Pearl article which is what it is supposed to be. What's that all about???The link worked perfectly....
