Shutdown, Restart, Run, Hibernate all missing
Posted on 27. Apr, 2007 by Cameron Reilly in living with a PC
I’ve got some serious virus action happening on Vista. Last night I noticed I couldn’t run Task Manager. It had been greyed out. I also don’t have Shutdown, Restart, Run, Hibernate – they are all missing from the ORB. I’ve spent a bit of time today investigating and it seems to be either virus or scumware related. So I’ve run a bunch of things today – Windows Defender, AVG AV, Lavasoft AdAware – and they found a bunch of crap which I deleted, so at least I got Task Manager back – but still no ShutDown etc.
So I don’t know what to do from here. Bloody annoying.
Oh and the first person who says “Buy A Mac” gets slapped with a fish.
G’DAY WORLD #233 – Chris Hitchen from GetPrice
Posted on 27. Apr, 2007 by Cameron Reilly in Podcast
Once upon a time, in an internet far, far away, a young boy had a dream, that one day the internet would deliver a state of perfect information which would provide the basis for perfect competition. That is, assuming that all agents are rational and have perfect information, they will choose the best products, and the market will reward those who make the best products with higher sales. Perfect information would practically mean that all consumers know all things, about all products, at all times, and therefore always make the best decision regarding purchase. In competitive markets, unlike game-theoretic models, perfect competition does not require that agents have complete knowledge about the actions of others; all relevant information is reflected in prices.
That boy was Chris Hitchen, CEO of GetPrice, a shopping comparison tool. He joins me today to share his dream for a perfect world and to explain why CPA is the thing smart marketers worry about, not CPC.
