No more free hosting for Wikispaces users.

I have been a user of Wikispaces for three years now. Wikispaces is a free wiki hosting site that lets you create your own wikis and share them with the public. And I have my own wikis on the site.My latest one about Windows software and the upcoming Windows 8.Which I have put a lot of hard work into.

Re my ban from Windows 8 Forums.

Update-my ban from Windows 8 Forums has just been lifted. A few hours ago today. Here is the story.

A few days ago I told readers that the my ban from Windows 7 Forums was lifted last Wednesday 11th July. I found out that I have been reinstated in Windows 7 forums after I got an email from the admin on Wednesday.

Re my ban from Windows 7 and Windows 8 Forums.

Three Months ago,I was banned from both Windows 7 Forums and Windows 8 Forums. Both forums are run by the same admin,so if you are banned from Windows 7 Forums,you are also banned from Windows 8 Forums.See my other post here-http://andreaborman2.blogspot.com/2012/03/banned-from-yet-another-forum.html
But yesterday morning,Wednesday at 9am,I got an email from the admin of Windows 7 and Windows 8 Forums asking me to come back to Windows 7 Forums.

Problems with Mediafire.





















Have you ever heard of Mediafire? If you are a software developer or if you have files that you want to share with friends you should have.

Mediafire is one of the larger file sharing and storage sites. And anyone can open a free account and upload their files and store them on the site for free. You can choose to make your files public so you can share them with friends. Or on your blog or website.Or private where only you have access.

And I have been using Mediafire for quite some time now. And a lot of my blog posts are about installing Windows XP and Windows Vista software on Windows 7 and Windows 8.

And so I use Mediafire to post links to my installer files that I have made, such as Windows Mail and other software from my computer. So that anybody who does not have Windows XP for example, can download the installer file onto their computer.As you cannot upload zip or exe files to your blog or website. But you can post download links to them.

Also you may want that old version of Aim Messenger for example, that they will no longer make in two months time. So you can download the zip or exe installer file and save it on a file sharing and storage site.And you can make it public or private. So if later on you want that file,you can just log into your account and download it.

But yesterday, when I went onto Mediafire and logged into my account.When I tried to download my files onto my computer, I could not.And this has been going on for over 24 hours now.

Get the Windows XP sound scheme and XP song on Windows 7.

This also works on Windows 8 and Windows Vista as well as Windows 7.

Miss the Windows XP sounds and Windows XP songs on Windows 7,Windows 8 and Windows Vista? Here is how you can get them back.

To install the Windows XP sounds such as the XP start up sound and log on or log off sound and also the Windows XP song on Windows 7,Windows Vista or Windows 8.You need to copy all of the sound files from Windows XP found in Windows/Media folder and then place them in the Windows/Meda folder on Windows 7,Windows Vista or Windows 8.

Get the Windows XP screen savers on Windows 7.























The Windows XP and screensavers will work on Windows 7,Windows Vista and Windows 8.And the Windows Vista screensavers will also work on Windows 7 and Windows 8.

The Windows XP screensavers are much better than the Windows 7 screensavers.And they have settings where you can customize the screensavers that are not in the Windows 7 screensavers. If you have a Windows XP computer you can install all of the Windows XP screensavers on Windows 7,Windows Vista and Windows 8. And also the two Windows Vista screensavers,Aurora and Windows Energy will work on both Windows 7 and Windows 8.
