Welcome to the wonderful world of Linux - most wireless doesn't work.
You can possibly connect the Linux machine with ethernet directly to the network, or if that is not feasible, you can use a crossover cable to connect the two machines ethernet ports, set up internet shareing on the Windows machine. I have no clue about how to set up the Linux machine however, since I gave up on it a year ago after months of frustration of trying to get it to work with windows on a network. (Went back to XP).

This is not the Answer Line discussion, it is not a discussion for solving PC problems. It is a discussion of the article in the Business Center titled "What PC Hassles Do you Need Help in Solving?".

If you need help in solving a problem, from the main page, go to the area that best fits your particular problem, Desktops, Notebooks, Networks, Printers, Peripherals, etc and click on the "Start A Discussion" button which is haze blue, make sure that it is marked as a question (defult check mark should be in the box) and then give it a descriptive heading and then describle your problem in detail.

Most problems listed here will not be seen by the majority of the people who can help.

wow thats bright lol

Well, I'm trying to get their attention. They keep listing their problems in a discussion about an article rather than where the question for help belongs.

[coastie65]

Hey rg, :^0 Yup, that is an attention getter I guess. I have just gone ahead and answered a couple of minor ones and moved one to an appropriate category with a notation of why it was moved. coastie

[AuroraDizon]

Oh I know. Against the white background the bright red was like >< on my eyes just commenting. :x

[rgreen4]

I wanted to grab their attention, and I think you are confirming that it works. I didn't want to lock the thread, and have moved several to their own discussion.

Hello [~154182],

Regarding Find-It URLs, first you type the entire URL as it is published in PC World (beginning with the word 'find' and ending with a five-digit code) into your browser's address field. Then click your browser's Go button to reach the mentioned page or Web site. For example, find.pcworld.com/60901 will lead you to www.pcworld.com/downloads/file/fid,7423-page,1-c,antispywaretools/description.html

Thank you! ~Kristina
