i just put people pc on my computer a couple days ago, whenever it is running, windows media player and msn messenger stop responding.. it happens EVERY time and it's very irritating. does anyone have any idea why this is happening? thanks!!
Now that you have People PC-you can go to free AOL-try it. The only problem is that you will be shunted to AOL browser in lieu of MIE. Have fun
what are you talking about? All i want to do is get WMP and messenger working when i'm on the internet.
If they have access numbers, try writing down the access number, your login name, and password, and then remove the PeoplePC software. It's spyware anyway, which PeoplePc is well-known for. Then go into Windows' networking tab and have Windows create a new connection, using DUN (Dial-Up Networking). Most people don't realize that, with rare exceptions, ISP-provided software contains lots of malicious crap, and you can connect to the ISP just fine with the native, built-in networking in Windows (and Linux, Unix, MacOS X, etc.), so you don't need ISP-supplied software to begin with as long as you know what you're doing.
i did that with msn but cant seem to remember how to do it again. I tried once but it didn't work. anyone know how to do it. yeah, its HORRIBLE software.. we would dump it but the fastest even availaible (besides satelite internet) is 28.8 kb/s (yes, KB/S).. and thats on a good connection. anyway, we were tired of paying more than DSL for such a slow connection.
okay, did a quick google search and found peoplepc specific instructions.. thanks for the idea.. peobably wouldn;t have tried it again if you didn't bring it up. i figured that you could only do it w msn cause of the whole windows/msn thing. oh well thanks.. problem solved!!
