Windows 10????
I've no sooner started using Windows 8.1 (Classic shell so it looks like Windows
7) and I'm getting nagged to reserve my free copy of Windows 10. Yea or nay? What are your thoughts on Windows 10? Thanks. --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. http://www.avast.com |

Thanks. --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. hxxp://www. avast. c*m My thoughts: Stop spamming your choice of anti-virus software. Either configure it to NOT append its fake spam signature (there is no valid signature delimiter line: dash dash space newline) in its e-mail shield or remove its e-mail shield since it is superfluous (same on-demand scanner used to interrogate your e-mail traffic is the same on-demand scanner used to detect you creating a file to save the message or when extracting an attachment). Besides, it makes you look foolish trying to make others believe your post is virus free just because you say so. The X-headers are okay but the fake (invalid) signature means their spam is in the body of your post, so your post becomes their spam. I also use Avast. See, no spammy fake sig on my posts. |

Okay, I think I found the box to uncheck to stop the spam Avast advertisement. If it shows up here, I didn't fix it and I'll keep looking. |

There is an entire group dedicated to Windows 10, and you might get some comments on the Preview from that group. alt.comp.os.windows-10 And you can remove and hide KB3035583. That's the update that adds GWX.exe and friends. http://www.howtogeek.com/218856/how-...fication-tray/ Paul Strange, but I can't find this Windows-10 group on my provider. |

You need to "refresh" the newsgroup list. The alt.* hierarchy doesn't have a working "control message" system. Instead, users contact the administrator of their USENET server and have groups added. It's probably there, but was created a year ago or so, and if you "refresh" the newsgroup list, it will show up. Paul |
