This guy gave me the best instructions even though it was an easy thing to do, I had no clue on how to do this and his instructions were the best I have ever had. he didnt ASSume that I knew where the program files folder was and went from the beginning (home screen) to the end and I think the moderators in here should give him a cookie. Many times I have hit a wall because someone ASSumed that i knew the the process starting from the middle of the problem and had to go thru hell to get it from the beginning.


First get yourself Total Commander. It's a free registry tool. However you can browse exactly as I posted earlier with file explorer which is in the
Today Screen-->Start-->Programs-->File Explorer.

Once in File Explorer, click on the top left icon under "File Explorer" and highlight to "My Device"
Under "My Device" you will see a few folders and one is named "Programs Files". Click on it.
Scroll down to a folder called "TCPMP". Click on it. Inside the folder are (2) folders in the top: "sites" & "sites.clean". Delete the "sites" folder and rename "sites.clean" to "sites".

You should now get no more nasties on your video bookmark...

THATS HOW TO GIVE INSTRUCTIONS!!!!!!

i'll agree and there is no doubt it is a detailed step by step procedure. Having said this, there are still *many* noob that doesn't even care searching and reading. it is posted as a sticky in almost all of the forum threads about the wiki, rules about searching before posting et al.

I may still be a noob for some (if you'll look at my joining date), has also received comment before like *have you tried searching?*it's already answered in post blah blah*this was asked for the nth time*and so forth when I first posted here.

Then I asked myself why aren't they friendly? why can't they just answer me straight? In time as I was reading throughout the wiki, the forums and all. I became *somewhat* knowledgable with my unit. all my questions before were answered already, to sum it up. reading makes you more knowledgable. instead of just braging a question straight up, make a search, read a little :D

you might be surprised with the outcomes as well. Answering the same questions over and over again can be a pain in the a$$. Now I understand why they hit me with those words the first time I had posted here :D just my 2 cents though :D

absolutely right. many people just don't try ro find it by themselves.
for example- in magician forum there is a sticky "no wm5 or 6 for magician"
but still daily we come across threads like "how can i put wm6 on my jam?"

but new questions and serious problems are surely taken care of.
