I know, since I'm a user of the free versions of CCleaner and Avast I'm a freeloader. I shouldn't complain about pop-ups that block the view of something I really want to see on my screen.

I have reset the port settings on my DVR from port 80 to port 8080 When I log into my DVR with its ip address through my PC it automatically wants to go through port 80 even though it's been changed and I can't log in without adding ":8080" at the end of the ip address.

However, Windows continues to first display all the files sorted by descending order of date and then display all the folders that are sorted by descending order of date. What...
