I was just wondering Sheriff. It does make it easier to post pics from a hosting site. But I'm getting the hang of it now.
How about this query though? Maybe you have an answer for me?
When I'm on stage6, or winamp. I can watch a movie until my time I've selected until my screen saver comes on. Then the movie starts skipping, my screen saver comes on, but I can't access my start menu. I have to force off my computer and start again. I've been told to turn my screen saver off by right clicking, then selecting properties, choosing, either a longer time. Or, turning the screen saver off completely. The problem is... It doesn't give me that option.
Do I access it from " Access and Default, in my settings?

Sorry, It's me again.. How it's a for profit site? I don't pay for membership. Does it get paid by clicking the links to the other sites? Because that would be a goldmine.
That sites the only way I can figure out where to find movies in full run time.
Mostly I just use the veohtv. It plays until the movie stops. That doesn't interfere with my screen saver.
Thank you Sheriff

Brad, here's how you do this on Windows.
1. Right-click on the desktop. Not on any icon on desktop, not on any program. Minimize any open programs first, then right-click on any open space on your desktop. A small menu will come up. Click "Properties"
2. A screen will open up with properties for your desktop. It will have tabs. A 3rd tab or so is a "Screen Saver" tab. Click on it. You will be able to change screen saver kick-off time, or even disable it.

Yeah, it is not membership-based. It is advertising-based. All these banners around - that's advertising. Also, some links are advertising. For instance, 4 links at the bottom - we get paid for people clicking on these. But I can't tell you that  nor can we ask people to click because that would be against advertiser's policies.
Advertising like that only pays off when there are lots of visitors browsing though. I can probably live comfortably in Russia on that, but not in US, not with my current expenses

Thank you Sheriff, This is what Luv's at forumflicks suggested to me
go to start menu, control panel, appearance and themese, choose a screen saver and where it says wait change that to like 60 minutes or whatever you want there.
I can finally watch a whole movie now. I will say though, That divx player has some very high quality.
Ads, of course the higher the traffic at sites, equals more money for the web master. Even if you say you're not supposed to tell anyone that you get paid by the click. It's common knoweledge, isn't it?

Yes, it is common knowledge. Basically, advertisers can't ask people to start clicking on links or ads. That will distort reality for advertisers...hmm, kinda twisted, what reality? the one they advertise (i.e. already distorted)?

And not to mention the fact is,, We are already talking in an alternate reality,, Think about,, it's true.
Now that the screen saver problem is solved.
So you know how after the screen saver shuts off. Then the black screen comes up with the moving windows icons.
Do I access the time on that at the same place?
Because now the black screen comes up before the screen saver.
Which is okay, because I can just hit any key to return to the movie.
And I do want to keep the screen saver.

Well Ms. Candy, I usually watch plain ole normal movies from veoh.com. I think Dmitry would get a little ticked off if someone uploaded porno to his site. But I go to movieforumz.com to find the links to veoh, stage6, and a bunch of Japanese sites. But the Japanese sites take to long to buffer.
The one I like, and I'm a member of her forum is,forumflicks.com. Kate, Luvs, and Mattypo, will most definitely not let you provide links to porn.
So as far as porn goes? That's where your computer picks up viruses, and trojans. But if you have a computer? And don't watch some porn on it? You've wasted a bunch of money .
So I have no idea why my screen saver was interfering with stage6, and winamp
