    Is it worth remewing my norton antivirus?

    There are free alternatives, but I've always gone with a pay version. Norton, McAfee, or Zone Alarm. I like using the software from companies like the ones I mentioned who are on the cutting edge of the technology, but in order to do that you have to pay. I guess it depends on how much you...

    Problem logging onto Outlook Express?

    My advice would be to stop using outlook and start using Thunderbird trust me, you'll never go back. I have Windows Vista with the new Windows Mail and ever since I stumbled across Thunderbird, I would never consider going back. It has a great smoothly operating calendar that fits right into...

    Antivirus -sorry if this has been done before

    I use a pay anti virus/firewall (McAfee Security Suite) but I also run a few freeware programs that might help. Spybot Search and Destroy has been around for ever and can be a bit "buggy" but does a nice job of removing spyware and other nasty stuff. Windows Defender is also free and is produced...

    Disappointed

    I have also just recently purchased the Canon 40D with two lens' one of which is the 17-85mm IS that is the focus of this discussion. I haven't done a lot of shooting with it because I've been using the 70-300mm IS to shoot birds, but I have used it enough to say I haven't had any problems with...

    What irrates you when birding!

    People who decide to jog in pairs talking to each other at the top of their lungs with a few dogs in tow through the middle of a place clearly marked as a wildlife preserve.

    When your efforts pay off with shots like this, I don't think you're waisting your time. Not that beach isn't a great way to spend one's time. But I know what you mean it can be frustrating. Anyway, great shot! Beautiful bird!

    Comment by 'Guest' in media 'Cedar Waxwing'

    Yeah, that would have been quite a job with the 85mm.(I originally listed the 17-85mm) It was actually at the 300mm end with the 70-300mm lens I've been using. I updated the lens in the equipment. I realized I listed the wrong lens when I read your reply. I love Cedar Waxwings as well. I was...

    Cedar Waxwing

    I took this photo while walking on the Fore River Trail in Portland, Maine. I think this trail is one of Portlands best birding spots, which is not known to many and used by very few. I go there on a daily basis. There were a dozen or so Waxwings moving through the tree tops eating berries...

    It's just my natural expression. People tend to think I'm far more serious than I am when the first meet me. It's just the way it is. This photo was taken the first time I was ever in Portland, Maine. It was a rainy, foggy, afternoon and I was doing my best to look out over the bay.
