Best Instrumental Ever

May I just say the instrumental “Stream of Consciousness” off of Dream Theater’s newest release, “Train of Thought”, is the best instrumental I’ve ever heard. Even if you’re not a fan (to be honest I think alot of people aren’t because of the way the music sounds to them when it’s with vocals), you have to hear this song! Even if it takes more than once to get into it…an 11min.+ song that flows from beginning to end. Things Metallica used to be able to do (and still dream of)…one of the greatest rock bands of our time flying right under the radars. They just don’t get enough credit. This album is just outstanding!

This song and Korn’s (live) version of “One” get me going in the morning…

Mozilla – How to uninstall EasyGestures plugin

I keep having to do this on all the PCs I take care of…thought I’d post the instructions here since Mozilla’s sites are so slow right now with people downloading the new versions of stuff.

Here are the steps for manual uninstallation:

(If installed in the program folder)
1. Exit Mozilla Firebird
2. Go to the [chrome] directory of your Mozilla Firebird application directory
3. Delete “chrome.rdf” and the [overlayinfo] directory (they are regenerated on next start)
4. Delete the [easyGestures] directory
5. Remove every line with a reference to easyGestures from “installed-chrome.txt” (there are two: one for the content and one for the locale)
6. Open “prefs.js” file located in your Mozilla Firebird profile directory and delete all lines with a reference to easyGestures
7. Restart Mozilla Firebird

(If installed in the profile folder)
1. Exit Mozilla Firebird
2. Go to the [chrome] directory of your Mozilla Firebird profile directory
3. Delete the [easyGestures] directory
4. Remove every line with a reference to easyGestures from “installed-chrome.txt”, “chrome.rdf” and the [overlayinfo] directory. (there are two: one for the content and one for the locale)
5. Open the “prefs.js” file located in your Mozilla Firebird profile directory and delete all lines with a reference to easyGestures
6. Restart Mozilla Firebird

The Mozilla Firebird profile directory on Windows XP should be like:
[ C:\Documents and Settings\…\Application Data\Phoenix\Profiles\default\8vm46tqc.slt]
