VLC Color Scheme Has Been Changed to Windows 7 Basic, can't get it back!

I've been using VLC to play my videos for a long time and while fidgeting with the settings I must've changed one that causes my Windows Theme to switch to Basic every time I open it up, and I hate that it does that but I can't find the setting that will stop it from switching, can anyone please help? Frustrated

What Does DDoS Mean? How Can I Protect Myself?

"DDoS" stands for "Distributed Denial of Service.

It's a method of sending so much data to one computer / IP Address, usually, but not always, a simple "ping", that it essentially gets flooded, can't handle it, and either gets completely knocked offline, or becomes so slow that for all practical purposes that computer, or even website, becomes unusable.

How Do I Post a Youtube Video Response? - (Tutorial)

Having trouble figuring out how to post a Youtube video response to another Youtube user's video?

 

Youtube doesn't make it very obvious, so if you've never done one and are having trouble finding the "button" to post a video response, it's easy.

Tired of typing the full URL (http://www.domain.com)

If you want to avoid typing the whole (http://www.domain.com)... just type the site name and hold the Ctrl key and press enter. Works for .com sites mostly (ie) pepsi then hold Ctrl and press enter, it will Automatically enter the http://www. for you. IE and Firefox.

How do I fix a stuck pixel??

I have a new LCD monitor and just noticed while playing SWTOR this weekend that it has a really annoying bright yellow pixel that stays there all the time. The crazy thing is I only see it when playing that game (I haven't looked with other games yet) and when I log out of the game I no longer see the pixel lit up in regular Windows. Does anyone know WHY it only shows in the game, and how to fix a stuck pixel? Thx!

Can anybody give me some advice please?

My local disk (c:) is nearly full up and I have nothing on my local disk (e:)
How in easy terms can I transfer some of my applications to disk (e:)
I have taken some off of (c:) but it automatically goes back on to (c:) when I try to put it on (e:). It will not give me a choice. I am fairly new to computers so any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you. Ian
