But I crashed and burned.

All three MTSOs had the bulk of their work on the same day each week, so it didn't work out.  I quit one and only do the small one on the weekends or evenings.  I asked the "good" one for more hours so I didn't have to work three jobs.


It's one thing to think about how much money you "could" make if you were working XX hours at XX lines per hour.  It's quite another thing to actually do it.  I get slower the more I type and the later in the day it gets.  It's better for me to get up early and crank out as many lines as I can by noon.  Then if there's anything left, I can do it at a leisurely pace.


A rescue helicopter crashed in N.O. but all got out
safe and alive. My heart and prayers go out to all these people.
It hasn't crashed your computer?
or let any bad 'gremlins' in to get your information? That's mostly what I'm afraid of.

And thanks for your response.
Computer crashed, cannot work for two days.
How do you prepare for something like this???  I wonder if the big "S" has compensation for this type of thing.  Hard drive needed replaced.  Egads.  And I cannot work off my schedule as I would be, you know, cheating.   This is a major financial hit.
OOPS my hard drive crashed

Either charge him an astranomical amount or say "oops computer crashed and lost them" or snce you no longer have his account you erased them.  They are your property and you are entitled to be compensated if he wants them and give them to him.   They are yours and not his. 


 


My computer crashed and I lost ALL my bookmarks for researching, please share your favorites. Thx.

Firefox for me.

Never mind, I used Firefox ...
instead of Internet Exploder and I worked fine.
Are you using Mozilla Firefox? if not, you probably should be.

Firefox with NoScript
I have just finished up my MT training. I was in the computer industry since 1995 but lost my last 2 jobs to overseas...so...I tried this.
Only to see, you have the same issues.

At any rate, MS Internet Explorer has many security flaws. You would be shocked to learn how easy it is to get a keylogger on to your system.

The safest way for you to be on the internet is to use Mozilla Firefox. You can download it here...

http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/

After that, you need to also get the addon called "No Script" for firefox. This stops website from running malicious scripts on your PC. You can get that here:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/722

Once installed both programs will auto update when new updates are released. No Script updates frequently but I assure you that this is the only way to surf the Internet safely.

They also have alot of other cool addons you can look at and provide an email program as well.
If you are looking for anti-virus and anti-spyware that is FREE then use AVG.

All of that is just basic stuff. You can move up to firewall and lots of other security tools but just having Firefox will really help.

I will advise that like everything else...there is a bit of a learning curve. Using No Script will lock everything down and require you to "Allow" pages you want to use. Also, as with all Microsoft operating systems...the more you add the slower the boot process and general operating.

Good Luck!

Firefox by Mozilla
I have used it for years. If you interface with your browser for your transcription needs, be sure it is compatible with your company.
Agree with you - love Firefox

I use Firefox, it didn't show there.

Ditto. Firefox is the way to go. Best security, as well.

Its Mozilla Firefox that's the problem tho'
I've made sure all language settings are in US/english. This is so bizaare. Where's giddy PC guru ???
If you use Mozilla Firefox, see inside.

You can list websites that tend to lure you away from working, and block them for various periods of time. This has been a great help to me.
Nope. I switched to Firefox months ago and LOVE it. nm

That is "web site" in post above. Also, Auto Copy add-on for Firefox will automatically copy
Auto Copy add-on for Firefox AUTOMATICALLY copies what you select (highlight) on a web site to the clipboard.

Then you can paste it in a document.

It just saves the step of right clicking and then clicking on "copy" to put something on the clipboard. Just select it, and it is on the clipboard.

It only works only on web sites-- only copies stuff you select on web sites, i.e. not in other documents.
can you use Firefox with Norton? I have Norton, but some popups still get through. nm
