Why am I getting a bounce to an email I sent from someone I didn't sent it to?
I
recently sent my husband an email. He received it but I also got this
message: "Undeliverable mail returned to server." The weird thing is
that it's his boss's email that was "undeliverable", and I
never typed it in. I didn't even know his email. Does
this mean his boss is spying on him? Is it ...

The Plight of the Average User
Over the course of the last four years of doing Ask Leo! I've also learned a lot about
computer and technology myself. The old adage about learning something
by teaching it is very, very true.
But I've also learned a thing or two about you, the people trying to

How do I post a long link in email?
I tried to email a web page link to a group of my friends, but none
of them could click on it and have it work ... it always said "page not
found" or something like that. And yet the link works for me.
The link is a little lengthy, so I certainly can't expect them to
type it all in. Why can't th...

As I write this, while there are reports that XP SP3 is starting to
appear i...

I was researching a question on the internet, and I find it very

refer to various posts on discussion forums and advice sites such as
yours, all of which are most helpful not often contradictory. One finds
those who swear by a pr...

How do I fix bad sectors on a flash drive?
I have a flash drive and I found that some files on it were
corrupted. When I recopied them from a backup, these files were
corrupted again, sometimes immediately, but sometimes only after a few
days or weeks.
Some folks have suggested I simply "buy a new one". But I think that
this might be mor...
