Every time I've come to the forum today Firefox tells me a script is running from google-analytics.com - what is this? Is it just a hit counter or is it something I should be worrying about? I've blocked it for now.

http://www.shoutoutlouds.com/ Anybody heard of this band? They were on both Letterman & Leno last night (I think the Late Show was a rerun, but the Tonight Show was live) and it was my first exposure to them (aside from them being featured on allmusic.com). They're not bad! They are a...

Soul Asylum bassist Karl Mueller passed away this morning after a long battle with throat cancer...he was 41. A benefit was held for him last October which featured the reunion of Bob Mould and Grant Hart from Husker Du. Soul Asylum is expected to release a statement sometime tomorrow.

I'll be moving across town next week, and it's the first time I've moved since I bought my computer. So what I'm wondering is, how exactly do I go about packing it up and moving it? At the moment I have a 15" flat-screen monitor, a regular PC tower, and a printer (plus keyboard, mouse, speakers...

Posted today at 16:00 GMT: "Hello gals and guys, We're very sorry having to tell you that we had to shut down EZT just a couple of minutes ago. We got a call from our provider, they had received a few letters from a couple of lawyers. They requested EZT to be shut down immediately...

Now that I've started downloading video files [namely that Replacements concert twintone just put up] and actually have a DVD player, I've started thinking about getting a DVD burner. How much is a good external burner? I know nothing about DVDs or burners :| but if anybody uses one that's...

Alright. I've got a friend whose taste in music is pretty much awful. Her two favorite bands are Evanescence and Nickelback. She refuses to date any guy that doesn't like Maroon 5. I want to get her into better music, but I'm not sure what she'd like. I was thinking of the Pixies, but I...

i'm really interested in switching to a macintosh. i've been using windows xp home edition for three years, but os x is looking really appealing. the 'i hate macs' thread awhile ago made me start actually considering switching. but i have a couple questions. 1. should i wait for 'tiger' to...

is he any good? i've heard a lot of positive things and dl'ed one song which isn't bad. any of you like him?

http://www.thelayaways.com Has anybody ever heard of these guys? They're pretty good, I like them a lot. Splendid calls them "The Jesus and Mary Chain minus a lot of distortion" and I have to agree. They've got a lot of pretty pop melodies, but they could do some really great stuff I'm...

Erm...what media players do you guys use? I used to use Windows Media for ages but it started annoying me with the album-art downloading and all that, so I switched to Winamp. But now whenever I play songs in Winamp they're all fuzzy and staticky so I'm back to Windows Media which has clear...

I'm making a mix and several songs are much louder or quieter than the preceding or following song. Is there a program I can use that can convert all songs to the same volume? Thanks!

I was looking in my Task Manager under Processes and saw that I have something running called lsass.exe. Is this that sasser worm that was going round awhile ago? If it is, how do I get rid of it?

Has anybody else heard of this? It's a streaming radio station (from radioparadise.com) with an excellent, if odd, mix of songs. It's been around for 3 1/2 years, so you all probably know about it already, but I just read about it in Paste. They have a lot of variety, which is good, and they...

If you click on the number of posts in a thread, it brings up a javascript window telling you who's posted in the thread and how many times they posted. Why would anybody use this?? :huh:

Hey, I'm not sure what forum to post this on, but this seemed close. Has anybody got a list of all the participants in the Band Aid benefit? I can't seem to find one anyplace. Thanks!

A Question on Status This is a rather trivial question compared to other inquiries in this forum, but--I've seen some people with the status 'Rock 'N' Roll Doggie FOB' ....what does FOB stand for?

I know lots of you are R.E.M. fans, and I'm hoping maybe you can help me with this... You see, I'd really like to be an R.E.M. fan. I own Document, Reckoning, Fables of the Reconstruction, Life's Rich Pageant, Green, Out Of Time, Automatic For The People and Monster. I listen to them all the...

I was wondering-- could anybody tell me where my avatar is from? And who it is? I think it's from the European version of Stuck In A Moment, and it's Bono and Edge, but I'm not sure. Thanks!

Currently I'm not a premium member but am thinking of becoming one. I received a PM some time ago and, of course, am not able to read it now. Do they expire?

I'm sure someone here will be able to help me with this... I'm looking for a specific pic of Bono and Edge, from the Pop era I believe... Bono is in the front holding up his cross necklace and Edge is to his left/behind him. Does anyone know this pic? Thanks!

On the main page of the forum it has a listing of each board, along with total number of posts and threads for each. However, to use an example, it says that PLEBA has 188862 posts and 8148 threads. Does this refer only to PLEBA, or does it include PLEBA's subforums? Thanks!

Are the people mentioned in Party Girl references to any real people? I think I read somewhere that Aislinn was the Party Girl and Trash referred to Adam... but I don't know. I'd like to know more about this. Thanks if you can help.

So I know there's already been far too many of these same threads... but what U2 dreams have you had lately? I've only had one really memorable one recently- In the dream I was going on this hike through a forest with some people from my school and Adam was going with us. Anyway, there were...

I'm not sure if this is the proper place to post this in, but I'll try. Anyway, my older brother's copy of Achtung Baby was bought brand-new. It is in a cardboard fold-out sleeve. My copy of Achtung Baby was bought used and is in a regular jewel case. Are both of these legitimate copies of...
