God knows, and I dont care. The point is the link says to get a service pack for the OS and it takes me to an 'upgrade ie' page. Its just a pile of sh*t.

Its a complete cycle if you need to upgrade make the damn upgrade it just don't work with a semi upgrade go for the full upgrade and give Microsoft a break you obsolete guy.

You don't get it do you?
1) I have vista.
2) I try to upgrade to win7.
3) It tells me 'get SP1 from this link'
4) I put said link into IE.
5) It tells me IE needs upgrading.
Now, do you finally get it?
And no, I have been writing kernel code for windows for 18 years, I have spent SOOOOO long messing with windows, and it is such frustrating SW to work with. It breaks, irreparably, so easily, and in so many ways.

See my read-only message for you in SB1.0

Not surprising. You Have been wanting to get rid of me from SB 1.0 Now you have your chance.
|
|

Quite the reverse. I enjoy many of our conversations. Although I have previously granted you membership of the SB1.0 when your CP account was no more where you had to create a new CP account thus bending one of the SB1.0 rules, this time, because of the election of a new Admin/Moderator, I thought it would be best to pass the buck of granting or denying new SB1.0 membership of yet another new CP account to whosoever the Admin/Moderator will be. I shall suggest to the new Admin/Moderator that as you are a known previous member of both Code Project and SoapBox1.0 that the rules of the forum continue to be bended and your new CP account be given approval as a SB1.0 member.
That said, your old CP account is gone, but it still remains an active SB1.0 member account. Consequently, until I clean up the SB1.0 membership listing prior to handover, you still have the right to vote. So email me your choice. You can see the messages, just email as guided by the instructions in the SB1.0Admin account posting.

I was just pulling your leg Richard.
this whole account deleting thing is just a load of crap. Jimmy Ropes atarted calling me a Linux Evangelist, to which I said he is stupid. He then started abusing me in another thread to which I gave back as good, and he goes and deletes my account! Purely because he has been around CP a long time he has the right be a hypocrite!
Its not like I care, and its not like account deletion achieves anything, since I can go and create a new account immediately! Its just pathetic that a little twerp like him can get away with being a tosser.

Who are we voting for anyway, SB1.0 chief? I thought Gary was the only contender, so whats to vote for?
|
|
|
|
|
Gary is the only contender, but there is the option to vote "None of the Above" if Gary is not acceptable to the members as the new Admin/Moderator.

Sorry, cant vote, due to stupid sh*tty MSFT code. My outlook account is f***ing me around with some spam BS where you have to endlessly enter a set of impossible to distinguish characters.
Yes, I f***ing hate Windows and everything MSFT produce. Its all utter sh*t.

ITS A BULLSHIT LINK! Get it?
|
|

In order to get the SP1 you need to have the latest version of IE to be compatible with the download so go ahead update your IE then try getting the SP1 by link.
|
|
|
|
|
No you don't. You can download a service pack with opera, firefox, any old thing, Its got sod all to do with IE.

|
|
|
|
