How do I physically locate a server? I'm familiar with the whois command at network solutions and the like, but how can I actually find out the geographic location of a server?
Whois.sc will work for that.
http://whois.sc/domain.com or ip.ad.dr.ess

Hm, probably. And yes, I'm using Windows.

But despite the fact that I now know what that space is probably for, I still don't know how to fix it.

I'm using a new installation of Mozilla, and all the plugins need to be added, like Shockwave.
I've been wanting to play Hannah and the pirate caves, so I installed it. I can see the little demo on the Macromedia site just fine, but Neopets won't let me play Hannah. :x
Any help much appreciate :).

Now for my question:

(Would anyone be willing to hand out your favorite neighborhood HBB a Gmail invite? My usenet groups, newsletters, and ppt related email seem to be attacking yahoo's bandwith, and you can take the fine pleasure in knowing that you gave your favorite neighborhood HBB a hand by giving him an invite. =P)

Now for my real question:

Does anyone know a special version of WINE tailored for Windows-to-Linux gaming?

In Internet Explorer any text that's Arial is in italics. The same goes for screen names on my buddy list in AIM. How do I make it so it's regular text again?

Go to: Tools>Internet Options>Fonts (at the bottom of the box its a button) You mite be able to fix it from there, but I'm not entirely sure if it'll fix it.

Didn't work. When I select Arial it's in italics, even on that thing.

If it's in your AIM too it's probably a problem with something else on the computer, not just IE. Did you try rebooting yet?

Maybe the font Arial has been damaged, so only the italic part works?

Try this one: http://ibisaeg.mine.nu/arial.ttf

It's the normal part of Arial, then there are Arial Bold, Arial Italics etc etc.

Does anyone know of any program/method that can recover files deleted from the recycle bin?
And...

Does anyone know why there are white patches around the text in the bar?

I had tried restarting, but I guess Arial was damaged somehow. Now it works though. Thanks :)

Try resetting your theme appearance. Right Click Desktop > Appearance. Reselect your style and apply.

To get rid of thos stupid gray pop-up box things, isn't it:
Administrative Tools, then go to Devices, then you stop the device titled "Messanger"
Is this correct? I'm just trying to make sure.

Another question:

On my computer the USB ports on the front don't work, and there are none on the back. Is there any way to fix them?
