I was OK and the reboot was a fluke. Well, until I downloaded the
newest MS virus, IE8. It didn't quite load properly so my computer
wouldn't boot normally for a day and a half. I finally got it to boot,
downloaded the entire packet to my computer, and got it to load
properly. All appears well now. What a FPITA!


LAA-AARY! Why you do such dumb ****?

I did, very early on. I use_d_ Firefox for most things and IE only for
Netflix while their viewer would work only under IE. Now that the new
viewer is supported by Firefox, I had moved over until the newest
versions of Firefox (from 3.0.7) developed memory leaks, damnear
halting my computer if Firefox was left on for more than an hour, with
Windows screaming about losing system memory. sigh

I use Forte Agent for news and MS Outleak Express for email. Both are
very good at what they do. I think it may be Micro$oft's only good
program _ever_!


Also try Google Chrome. It is a great browser in very many respects,
very fast, secure and robust. I like it and use it from time to time.


I'll check it out, Ig.
