...my computer was so slow and stupid... I did a registry fix with Norton Systemworks and had many problems in there (200 + errors!). Well I didn't, my husband finally helped me with it..It is now working fine and dandy. Only problem now is that everyone wants to use my computer.. Just wanted to tell you that sometimes you mess up the registry when you delete programs or download alot of different programs and then delete them. That's one thing to consider when it isn't working right. :)

A friend of mine dumps everything on his computer and re-installs only what he uses every year or two. He swears by it. This way, he always knows exactly what's there, what should be there, what version everything is, etc... It also gives him a chance to cleanly install only what he wants, for example, if he prefers Netscape over IE, all he installs is the Netscape. Not a trace of IE around to mess things up. Me, well I just wait 'til the fool thing dies, and look for a new one. This one is about 6 years old, and still kickin! (but I've got my eye on a few that are on sale, just for the fun of it:smile3: )
