Fixing Uninstall Errors

Fixing Uninstall Errors

Have you ever gone to uninstall a program, only to get some kind of nasty error message? It was probably something to the effect that the uninstall part of the program was hopelessly messed up and good luck trying to remove it from your system.



Don't think you're ever going to have this problem? HA! And I bet you think Windows will never lock up on ya either.

You see, there are only two kinds of people when it comes to uninstall corruptions – those that have been faced with the problem and those who are gonna be.

OK, enough talk. What do you do if you run into this problem? Calling Microsoft certainly won't get you anywhere, nor will crying (well, its never worked for me).

Background-Less Bing

Background-Less Bing

Microsoft's Bing search engine has made a name for itself on the Internet, not only by being one of the most used Internet searches, but also by being one of the prettiest. It seems that every time I navigate over, there's always some new and Interesting background image for me to gawk at.

But maybe you don't want a background image. Maybe you find it distracting, or all of the fact blocks that pop up are annoying you. Whatever the case, if you want to go to a version of Bing without a background, simply copy and paste this address into your web browser:

www.bing.com/?rb=0

The result looks like this:



If you like it this way, make sure to bookmark Bing with this address and you'll never have to see a background image again!
