    Spyware, Adware, Pop Up, how can I get rid of them??

    Spybot was extremely good last year but it has since fallen behind ad-aware. If one is using Spybot 1.2 you will find that there have not been updates since March. You have to try out Spybot 1.3 RC5 which is still a touch rough in parts. But overall, what Ad-aware lost out last year has been...

    New US Perreaux distributor and Perreaux USB/DAC

    Just a couple of points that I have discovered. 1. The $599 is the MSRP and Hififarm is intentionally keeping it at the MSRP for a reason. The street price will be probably in the area of $549 but could even dip to roughly $500 depending on one's negotiating skills with a particular store...

    Fair enough although I do see that the UR speaker cables are black with white stitching. But I assume you looked there. Peter

    Email SPAM : I just got an email from jude@headfi.org

    This worm and its variants is quite ubiquitous these days and represents apparently 50% of all virus/worm/trojan activity. I have been hit with daily emails on this on my corporate email and I can see that I either deal with the companies involved or are companies that are in my area of...

    HD600, Hans der Baer, repairs

    I realise now that I was replying to Pr0crastin9tor and you to zzz (the originator). However, on looking back at zzz's post I see he purchased it 2.5 years ago and the warranty is 2 years. I do know that for the intermittent connectivity issue Sennheiser were replacing lower earcup pieces due to...

    HD600, Hans der Baer, repairs

    Sennheiser will repair items not under warranty but there is a charge of US$35 to evaluate them. If you go ahead with repairs, and spare parts I understand can be pricey, then they will "include" that cost in the repairs. I assume that means they will discount the repairs by that amount. Look...

    System Problems

    I appreciate various models have been proposed but one that seems to work very well is a site that I frequent a lot and that is www.dslreports.com.

    The DIR800C is selling in US, right now!

    Today, just out of interest, I decided to find out exactly what the situation is with Datavision being an authorised dealer or not of Pioneer. I contacted the Pioneer Head office and they looked through their internal databases but did not have a record of Datavision being an authorised...

    The DIR800C is selling in US, right now!

    Just a quick question for you people. Are Datavision authorised Pioneer retailers? The reason I ask is that I went to Pioneerelectronics.com and did a dealer search using the zip code of datavision (10016). I tried various items and they do not come up as authorised retailers although they...
