I still can't delete a folder in Programs

[Valorie *~]

OK, I followed the advice given last week to be able to delete or remove
files (using Properties/security tab/advanced button/owner tab etc) - but it
will not work tonight when trying to delete/remove a program under program
files. I'm trying to remove one of the "WindowsMail" programs I installed
under programs. Somehow I ended up adding it twice under program files.
Running the bar all the way down doesn't get rid of this overbearing MS
security system. At the next reboot it's the same damn thing. How is it
disabled for GOOD and not just until the PC is shut off? What works when
the folder is under Program files?

Based on your previous posts,I think what you need is a good computer
literacy course or a 5 year old helper. Either will work.

Advanced permissions and add full control to the current user.

In reality I need a huge cock. My husband's is way too small to satisfy my
gaping hole.

Isn't that 'gaping hole' in the middle of your forehead?

Uninstall. As in add/remove programs in control panel.

Please note that the post you replied to seems not to be from the
original Valorie. It is spoofed, AFAICT. There are other such spoofs in
this newsgroup.

Duh! Valorie wouldn't have been able to put something that coherent
together.

It doesn't show up there.

In Windows 7 it's not called that is why. I'm amazed you can't find it
being as it's called PROGRAMS and Characteristics.

I know where to find it. The program wasn't listed there.


I'd hate to see you

in England needing to go to the rest room and wondering what the hell WC
means while you piss in your pants.

Why would an American know what the hell a WC was?

Anyone who draws blueprints or anyone that can read them would... Think
about it, how would you give a two letter abbreviation to a bedroom and
the bathroom?

Some of us have overcome the natural Uhmurikin tendency to consider our
way of
life and culture as the epitome of what's achievable?
WC, aka the "loo".

The average American who hasn't been to the UK wouldn't know what a water
closet or loo was.

A two letter word for both? BR for (B)ed (R)oom. It would probably be the
same for bathroom. I don't know. I don't do blueprints. WC for Toilet? WC
for loo? WC for (T)oilet? At one time in the early 1900s some people on
the east coast called toilets Water Closets = WC. I never heard of them
called loos here.

I believe they are called outhouses in your neck of the backwoods.
One-holer, two-holer, etc.

And why do Americans call the WC a 'rest room' or a 'bathroom'
when it's neither??

Americans also call it the "john" or the "head". Now explain that. What
does "loo" mean? For that matter, it isn't a water closet either.

Loo comes from French l'eau (pronounced 'low'), short for "Gardez
l'eau", meaning "Watch out for the water". It was what people shouted
before dumping waste water (!) out of the window into the street. This
was before indoor plumbing and modern sewage systems, in case you're
wondering.

"Water closet" is a British term for the tank that holds the flush water
for a toilet.

I am a native-born citizen of the USA & a life-long resident thereof,
and I thought the above was common knowledge in this country.

Actually, I didn't think that, but I thought most Americans knew what
loo and WC meant. OK, most reasonably educated urbane Americans.

That's the most popular of several theories about the origin of "loo,"
but it turns out that nobody knows the right answer for sure.

I'm an expert. I know the right answer.

Just kidding. And it's good to hear the competing theories, all new to
me.

And thanks, Ken, for being civilized about it

Still, it seems to me that lots of people in the US know the expressions
loo and WC. Maybe it's just that all of my friends are potty-minded...

You're welcome. I certainly don't know that you're wrong, and that
theory sounds good to me.

I certainly do.

LOL!

I once knew a psychiatrist who kept his wife under the bed because he
though she was a little potty.
