One clock is hard to swallow. Eat enough and it turns into a date. And those are easier to digest.

I recently installed, then right away uninstalled a VPN...
But my network has been left in a somehow unstable state....
And one time tonight, when I refreshed my browser I got "destination unreachable" error...
when I try to ping "192.168.0.1" (which I thought was my router IP, turn out it is not, it is 192.168.1.1) I get:
Reply from 150.101.32.110: Destination net unreachable.
Where is this IP coming from?
I recall there is some kind of host file somewhere in win32 folder, can someone refresh my memory on where and which it is, please?!
|
|
|
|
|
C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc
(maybe not C:\)
And by default it is empty...

Thanks, I just found it.
It is indeed, empty...
To be fair it was codeproject that was just unreachable.. and it happens that codeproject sometimes is unexpectedly offline...
I was also listening to online music and it was fine...

You can try
netsh winsock reset (to be executed as an administrator) followed by a reboot, and see if problem persists afterwards.
noop()

Stepney, South Australia. That'd be close to Adelaide?
Just pinged it, and is online.

Google "mvps host file" and follow instructions

That IP is most likely the primary IP on your home router; the address on your provider's network (it's likely the DG for the 192.168.1.0 network, and 192.168.0.0 is non-routable by design). This is assuming that you're not too far outside the box in terms of home network design.

I want to forward a photo that came as an attachment as an inline/embedded photo. In MickeySoft Outfark this is annoyingly cumbersome.
- save pic on disk
- open in paint
- select ALL in crop/selection-tool
- copy
- paste in new mail
- delete pic from disk
WTE! Is this really the only elephanting way??
If I just do it the natural way, open attachment (opens in "Photos") copy + paste, it pastes as as an attachment. ARGH!
And googling "outlook convert picture from attachment to inline" gives me 100s links of the exact opposite. ARRRGH!
Ideas?
Thanks

- Save it on disk.
- Go to Insert tab on ribbon
- Click on picture and select your file

I propose to rename Outlook to Look out ! 
|
|
|
|
|
My wife (and everyone we know) uses LOOKOUT. What a POS like most everything spewed from Redmond of late. I use thunderbird with a contented smug look.

I would not use Outlook privately, in the office we have it for for booking meeting rooms and wotnot.

Save photo somewhere.
Open in Browser.
Right-click -copy image.
Go to email and paste.*
I do this relatively often.
* Caveat: Outsource needs to be in a proper mode. Text-only not so hot. There's HTML and Rich Text.

Text only is safe. Never display HTML, unless you are on a first name base with the sender.
