TASK MANAGER TINY FOOTPRINT

If you have ever opened the Task Manager and the title bar & tabs are missing, you don't have a virus; it is running in Tiny Footprint mode. Double-click the border and it will return to the normal view.

FLIP MAIL

https://www.teleflip.com/ is offering a new service called "FlipMail". It turns your normal cell phone into a BlackBerry with emails sent to you as txt messages on your cell phone.

The features make it pretty attractive at the moment:

1) It's free.
2) It only sends the emails you designate you want sent to your phone.
3) It only sends them when your email client is closed. You don't get duplicates.

COPY MESSAGE BOX TEXT TO THE CLIPBOARD

Ever get a error message and need to write it down? Particular one with an obscure error number like 0x80040e09? Sometimes you can copy the entire contents of a message box to the clipboard by pressing CTRL+C.

To test this, go to the Start menu and choose “Run...“ Then type in something that doesn't exist, such as “foobar“ and press Enter or OK. You'll get a message box dialog that says “Windows cannot find 'foobar'.“ and a lot more information that I didn't want to bother to type in manually. Press CTRL+C, the text of the message will be copied to the clipboard. If you paste it into notepad, it'll look like this:

---------------------------
foobar
---------------------------
Windows cannot find 'foobar'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again. To search for a file, click the Start button, and then click Search.
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------

This won't work for every dialog box but it's worth a try before calling someone and saying, "I had an error." without being able to tell the person what the error was.
