I don't recall a time when Task Manager couldn't close a frozen app. There were 2 instances of IE open that someone had minimized. I couldn't do a restart or shutdown.
It got as far as closing network connections and hung. Had to do the "unplug the power cord " thing.
Also had some instances of composing messages in IE or making attachments when I had to relog back on to my IP.
Are these just things that randomly occur in a network environment ?
Gas prices have been going down in the Houston area, about $2.20/gallon now.
Nice change for the better.
Some of the stations look as though they're giving it away by the crowds.
What are you paying in your area ?
Anyone ever run biodiesel in their vehicle? We do testing on it in my lab.
Thanks,

it ranged on the gas station in my town. i think the lowest is 2.26 up to 2.32. from what i heard biodesil is ok. cant run it in my vehicle though. im wanting to find an ethenol place. i heard that stuff was about 1.20 a gallon.
Here in Germany the prices don't stop going up.
You pay currently around 1,30 Euro per Liter, that would be approximately 5 Euros per Gallon.
Nice to see who owns the oil. :wink
$2.19 when I went to bed last night. I thought for sure that same station posted $2.15 unless it went up when I got home.
About Task Manager: I had instances in Win98SE where TM couldn't properly close something, so I'm well-trained in punching the little reset button on the front of my case when TM fails to work properly. At least WinXP doesn't give me the presumptuous boot-time ScanDisk message that implied I was at fault for causing the whole mess. I was always quick to disable that thing in Win98SE.
Gas prices where I live have been hovering near $3 US for the past few months. They drop a few pennies now and then, only to surge upward another $0.50 US whenever a handy excuse presents itself. It doesn't seem that long ago that I was only paying $1 US for a gallon of gas. In fact, it was only five years ago. I certainly don't drive as much as I used to.
Over here 1L is about 1 EURO, keeps going up, and what sucks is that the minimum wage is a little less than 100.
Where I live, I just paid $2.45 US/Gallon . The price has lowered at least $.30 per gallon over the last 2 weeks..
