<p><em>X-MOTO PLATFORM: WIN 2000 - XP, UNIX, FREEBSD, MAC link:
<p><a href="http://xmoto.sourceforge.net/">http://xmoto.sourceforge.net/</a>
<p> </p>
<p>A 2D motocross platform game. Guide your motor bike to the end of each course by manouvering over unstable terrain and running through various objects. Make your own courses with the included editor and also submit your highest score to be displayed on the internet. This game reminds me of an old game I used to play on the commodore 64 called "kickstart", the only difference is, it shows bigger elements, it's a bit more difficult and it's not 2 player on the same screen.

<h2>Autumn Brook Theme and Screensaver</h2>
<p>review from <a class="WikiLink" id="p-f72eded1da9aba0d0a637a4c68b35e72203a87d0" href="/ClifNotes">ClifNotes</a>, Dec 2006, <a href="AutumnBrookTheme">permalink</a> <a href="https://freewarewiki.pbwiki.com/tags.php?pedit=AutumnBrookTheme">_</a> <a href="http://freewarewiki.pbwiki.com/tags.php?ptag=Desktop%20Tools">Desktop Tools</a>
<p> </p>
<p>Some time ago, I got sidetracked when I was <a href="ColorsOfAutumnScreensaver3">looking at Autumn Themes</a>. Now I've found a very nice one at Theme World, but it's really time to start putting on the winter themes.
<p> </p>
<p>I'm currently using <a class="WikiLink" id="p-3e14df6d8f60c255ff0b06754effaaa015b6d8e7" href="/DesktopArchitect">DesktopArchitect</a> to manage my themes.
<p> </p>
<p>Remember, be careful when looking for free themes and screensavers. This one is safe, but any time you see that the theme comes with an installer (.exe file) or a screensaver (.scr file), be very cautious. These types of downloads are a favorite way for bad guys to take over your PC.
<p> </p>
<p><img src="f/AB400.jpg" align="left" hspace="15"><b>Quote from the website</b>
<p><em>This is a beautiful autumn theme setting of a forest stream surrounded by colorful autumn treas. The sounds of water moving swiftly downstream, birds chirping in the trees, and soft piano tones blend nicely for soothing nature sound effects. Wallpaper is available in JPG format for 800x600, 1024x768 or 1152x864 display sizes. Other parts include cutout type icons of various color maple leaves, web view images, system logo screens, and a screensaver that literally makes the steam flow on your desktop.</em>

<h2>Tips from Tiffany</h2>
<p>Nov 2006, <a href="TipsFromTiffany">permalink</a>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p><b>From Clif:</b>
<p><em>Tiffany writes me occasionally to tell me about her favorite websites and new freebies she tries out. </em>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p><b>From Tiffany:</b>
<p> </p>
<p>Good news! I've discovered 2 great free programs that I'd like to share with you.
<p> </p>
<a name="Snippy"></a>
<h3>Snippy</h3>
<p>The first one is Snippy: <a href="http://bhelpuri.net/Snippy">http://bhelpuri.net/Snippy</a> and here is a brief description of it from their website:
<p> </p>
<p><em>"Snip, and you're done! How often have you carefully selected some text from a Web page and copied it to an email message? Snippy makes this a snap! Simply click on the little Snippy icon in the taskbar notification area, and mark out the region of the screen that you want to copy — that's it, you're done! The cut-out image will now be in your clipboard, and you can paste it in another application." </em>
<p> </p>
<p>Here's an example of this ingenious little program at work:
<p><img src="/f/1164584251/Snippy0001.jpg">
<p> </p>
<p>Snippy makes it a snap to email a photo and text in 2 quick and easy steps - no saving of pictures first, etc. You really will wonder how you ever got along without it!
<p> </p>
<a name="M8MultiClipboard"></a>
<h3>M8 Multi Clipboard</h3>
<p>The second program is M8 Multi Clipboard: <a href="http://m8software.com/clipboards/freeclip/freeclip.htm">http://m8software.com/clipboards/freeclip/freeclip.htm</a>
<p> </p>
<p><em>"M8 is the simplest of all multi-clipboard programs. Just have it running minimized and it captures everything you cut or copy from other programs. It keeps the last 25 clips. When you want to paste one back, all you have to do is restore M8 and click on the clip you want. If you prefer to work entirely from the keyboard, you can choose a function key to restore M8 and then paste any clip by typing the letter shown next to it. When you move the mouse over the clips, you can see them in the viewer. If the clip is text, you see several lines and if it is a graphic, you see a thumbnail." </em>
<p> </p>
<p>I really like the fact that both of these programs capture not only text, but photos as well, and they do it so simply.
<p> </p>

<p> </p>
<p>I posted it to <a class="WikiLink" id="p-b9736f2e831d0eecc9cb6c551604885468823bfc" href="/TeMerc">TeMerc</a>'s security forum and asked them about this. They said this one is good and suggested several others that are good also.
<p> </p>
<p>These sites are a great way to find out if something is safe before you install it. They aren't perfect, but they do help.

<h2>A Grandchild's Guide to Using Grandpa's Computer </h2>

<p> </p>
<p><b>From Clif:</b>
<p>I was reading the Hoax-Slayer premium newsletter and he'd mentioned that the poem below is often attributed to Dr. Seuss. This isnt' so. It was written by Gene Ziegler in 1994. I've shortened the poem up a bit, but you can see the whole thing if you follow the link at the end of the poem.
<p> </p>
<p>By the way, drop on by and visit the <a href="http://www.hoax-slayer.com/">Hoax-Slayer</a> website. It's a great place to find out the most recent email scams and you'll come away with a good laugh more often than not.

<p><em>This poem has probably received more attention and circulation than anything I have ever written. It was created in an hour, late one night in the fall of 1994 after my four year old grandson and his older brother had significantly rearranged the resources on my Macintosh.</em>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p><em>
<p>If a packet hits a pocket on a socket on a port,
<p>and the bus is interrupted as a very last resort,
<p>and the address of the memory
<p>makes your floppy disk abort
<p>then the socket packet pocket
<p>has an error to report!
<p> </p>
<p>If your cursor finds a menu item
<p>followed by a dash,
<p>and the double-clicking icon
<p>puts your window in the trash,
<p>and your data is corrupted cause
<p>the index doesn't hash,
<p>then your situation's hopeless,
<p>and your system's gunna crash.
<p> </p>
<p>You can't say this? What a shame, sir!
<p>We'll find you another game, sir.
<p> </p>
<p>If the label on the cable
<p>on the table at your house
<p>says the network is connected
<p>to the button on your mouse,
<p>but your packets want to tunnel
<p>on another protocol,
<p>that's repeatedly rejected
<p>by the printer down the hall,
<p>and your screen is all distorted
<p>by the side-effects of gauss,
<p>so your icons in the window
<p>are as wavy as a souse,
<p>then you may as well reboot
<p>and go out with a bang,
<p>cause as sure as I'm a poet,
<p>the sucker's gunna hang!
<p> </p>
<p>When the copy of your floppy's
<p>getting sloppy on the disk,
<p>and the microcode instructions
<p>cause unnecessary risc,
<p>then you have to flash your memory
<p>and you'll want to RAM your ROM.
<p>quickly turn off your computer
<p>and be sure to tell your mom! </em>

<p>You need a free 2.7 GB Gmail account to access many of the cool features at Google. I'll send you an invitation right away if you write me and say <a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v88/clif_notes/?action=contact&subject=I_WANT_GMAIL">I WANT GMAIL</a>.
<p> </p>

<p> </p>
<p>I think Gmail works best in the awesome Firefox browser. It's free, easy to use, and it's way more secure than Internet Explorer. My favorite thing to do is to customize Firefox so that it does much more than IE ever could. <em>You can select new button controls for your toolbars, install extensions to add new features, or change the look of your browser with themes - the way Firefox looks and works is under your control.</em>
