Free but good ?

I think the Internet has made a lot of software better

from the days where you get some free program on a disk from a magazine you buy , now you can find program that rivial those from big name companies

Since my Anti virus program that came with the PC expired i wanted another one , one option was to just get a cracked one
but i didn’t feel like getting a cracked anti virus program

after i asked around in the net i found this
AVG been using for a year now and every thing is good , its free , it update daily
and it doesn’t consume your PC resources like others Anti virus program

2 weeks ago i wanted a program to deal with document , and i didn’t have MS office with me , did some searching and found
ABiword its easier , it can run all MS word document , it even have spell check
yet you don’t wait for 10 days for it to load

not to mention FireFox

Enjoy !

Watani Bank and FireFox

As one of the long saga in kuwait bloggers and where a lot kept on talking and sending e-mail after e-mail to Watani to fix the page and make it compatible with Firefox they finaly annouce that it work a week or two ago
as read mark blog

Well today i was using my UshopWEship account and tried to pay for a shipment , i had the account for over a month now and didn’t order anything till last week ( world cup and such ) i log in and the site look funky and bad [Firefox]

Normaly i don’t care how a site look like , if it work that all important , so anyway , i get the shipment and try to pay for it , and i keep on getting an error message from NBK site [error]
over and over and over , i switched from Visa credit card to Visa online , same thing , switch to Knet , same thing
after time and time and time i nearly got sick and was going to call the UshopWeship people and ask them to delete the account
then i remmbered ,, when i registered i was using IE and not Firefox , so i start IE , log into UshopWeship site and i got ” WOW ”
Check the page with [ IE ]

And clicking on NBK page to pay didn’t Give me the same Error ! and it worked with the same Credit card that they refused even to take its number before 19 times

So NBK site isn’t as combatible with Fire fox as they claim they are
I hope they fix their webpages ( both NBK and UshopWEship ) i switched and i’m not going back

I shop , they ship

or as they call them self , U shop We Ship
going to try this for the first time

anyone used it before ?
do you insert the number next to your name ? [ Name Number] ? or do you just use the number ?

Thinking of Getting some books and maybe buy electronic stuff ( The geek in me demand gadgets )
