Frappr is a front-end to Google's mapping service. It lets you mark locations for public sharing, and is being used by many groups to allow members to indicate their individual locations. (Supposedly, "Frappr" is derived from "friend"+"mapper.") By looking at the Frappr map as a whole, you can gain an instant overview of where members are, and how many are near you (for security, Frappr maps each member's location only to the center of their town; not to the street or house level).

View our map, and add your location!

--------------------
If XP doesn't seem to run correctly, try SFC /scannow or an XP Repair.
To help troubleshoot STOP errors, read this and run either the Microsoft Memory Test, or memtest86.
If you want to scan your computer for viruses free, try either Housecall, ActiveScan, or BitDefender .
If you need to take ownership of a file with XP, read this. (Note: used to resolve "Access Denied" errors).
If you are having some hardware problems, or planning to buy hardware, make sure to check this first.
If you decide to get an alternate browser, I suggest either Firefox, Opera, or Netscape.
Please read this for help in starting XP in Safe Mode.

Please read this before you post a HijackThis log, and please post all HJT logs here in the malware removal forum, not in other forums.

Dont PM me unless you have to, keep questions on the forum so others can see them and possibly use the same solution. If you havent understood something or dont know where to find something, GOOGLE it or look on WIKIPEDIA, only then ask the question: Its quicker than asking me and makes you look smarter. I should probably tell you now i am a busy person if you dont hear back from me straight away ill get to you as soon as i can. Don't call me, i'll call you.
Kap'lah and may the force be with you.
MALWARE what malware ahhh run away, run away ... or go to the malware forum instead.



Some software everyone should have:
CPU Z(also the home of PCwizard2006), Avast (one of the best antiviruses you can get and its free), Memtest 86, Spybot S & D, Adaware , Daemon tools, ATI tool, Winamp (the best media player,be a lamma or be square)

Please list your system specs... motherboard, processor, video card, ram, etc... if you know them. Also, if it's a desktop or a laptop. And, if its store bought... the manufactures name and model number. It's difficult to help you without this information.
You may download Aida32 to help you identify your specs.
Note: Aida32 is a stand alone program and requires no installation. Just download and unzip to a destination folder of your choice, then create a desktop shortcut of the Aida32 program (15K application) to launch it.
