WhenU Save/SaveNow (commonly referred to simply as WhenU or SaveNow), developed by the company WhenU, is a piece of advertising software generally considered to be adware or spyware. The program delivers advertisements, compares shopping results and other offers to users' computers, and tracks their browsing habits. WhenU is typically installed with other applications, ostensibly to support the free existence of those applications. WhenU cannot be installed without a user reading a disclosure screen and clicking "I accept" or "Next" to give consent, sometimes unknowingly. This model is similar to previous software known as Gator from the company now known as Claria Corporation. Security ConcernsAlthough WhenU's advertising software declares that it poses no risk of harm to users' computers, it is considered by many to be unsafe because it serves pop-up advertisements and slows down the computer. Lavasoft's AdAware and Computer Associates' PestPatrol briefly de-listed WhenU as an adware target in February 2005. Why these two programs stopped detecting WhenU while continuing to target other similar adware programs has led to some speculation of their reasoning. WhenU was added back to Lavasoft's detection list a month later. Despite these security concerns, TRUSTe has included WhenU's advertising software in its whitelist as certified software.

But anyway, here are some suggestions... * Make sure you have some personal time for yourself * Taking a bath or shower can work wonders:) * Make sure you get out of the house~ no one likes to feel confined * Go out w/ friends * Ask for help~ if you need a babysitter or help, don't hesitate to ask family members & friends * watch a movie or read a good book * make yourself look nice * smile & laugh as often as you can Answered by Baby Alicia has arrived! 2/22/09 - Thu Nov 1 14:55:34 2007 whenu ask or answer a question?

They all stem from one basic system. They all have the same regulations and guild lines. It's probably chosen by Y!A US. Edit: When it shows up on Y! A U.S., we don't know where the question is coming from. Some questions show up in U.S from U.K and Ireland, some don't. Why it works that way? I don't know. Edit2: You're right it should be different, so it fits each country, but you know how Yahoo is. If it's broken they don't fix it but if it's fixed they find a way to brake it.
