The problem, after searching around quite a bit, seems to be that after you down-grade from Vista to XP, it deactivates Bluetooth. In order to get it back, you need to run this utility Dell provides that enables it again. You can Get it here

After you install that, you should have no problems installing the Dell/WIDCOMM Bluetooth drivers.

Update: 4 days was enough. Upgraded to XP again!

Excel has detected that 'test.csv' is a SYLK file, but cannot load it.
Either the file has errors or it is not a SYLK file format.
Click OK to try to open the file in a different format.

Clicking ‘OK’ opens the file anyway. This usually happens when the CSV file starts with an ID column. Excel sees the ID column in the beginning and thinks it is a SYLK file.

To solve this, either double-quote the ID column, or rename it.

• Edit LocalSettings.php and add the following setting:

$wgDisableAnonEdit = true;

• Edit includes/SkinTemplate.php, find $fname-edit and change the code to look like this (i.e., basically wrap the following code between the wfProfileIn() and wfProfileOut() functions):

wfProfileIn( "$fname-edit" );
global $wgDisableAnonEdit;
if ( $wgUser->mId || !$wgDisableAnonEdit) {
  // Leave this as is
}
wfProfileOut( "$fname-edit" );

Next, you may want to disable the [Edit] links on sections. To do this, open includes/Skin.php and search for editsection. You will see something like:

if (!$wgUser->getOption( 'editsection' ) ) {

Change that to:

global $wgDisableAnonEdit;
if (!$wgUser->getOption( 'editsection' ) || !$wgDisableAnonEdit ) {

Section editing is now blocked for Anonymous users.

Regular expressions, sometimes referred to as regex, grep, or pattern matching, can be a very powerful tool and a tremendous time-saver with a broad range of application. As an extended form of find-and-replace, you can use a regular expression to do things such as perform client-side validation of email addresses and phone numbers, search multiple documents for strings and patterns you wish to change or remove, or extract a list of links from source code. Regex is supported by most languages and tools, but because there can be varying implementations, this article will cover basic principles that are commonly used.

If you’ve seen a regular expression before and thought it looked like alien space-algebra, it does, but have no fear – you’ll be fluent in alien space-algebra in no time! To make the most of the power of regex, you need to be familiar with a few classifications of characters. Literals are normal text characters and can include whitespace (tabs, spaces, newlines, etc.). Unless modified by a metacharacter, a literal will match itself on a one-for-one basis. Metacharacters’ power lies in how they are arranged and interpreted as wildcards. Metacharacters can be escaped with a backslash (\) to find instances of themselves, for instance, if you need to find a caret (^) or a backslash, as well as used in nested groups or other combinations.

The simplest way I’ve found to solve this problem is installing SQL Server 2005 (Express Edition) which is free. This solves the problem temporarily.

1. Ensure the URL shows a 404 when you access it.
2. Surf here

1. Wait 3 to 5 days.

It turns out that Google will delete pages from the cache if and only if it gets a 404 from the url (I assume there must be some timeout ???). By simply removing the server from the net we did not get the file out of Google’s cache and it sat there for four months.
