I hate all the updates I have to do on my laptop. Maybe if I had it online once in a while other than when I travel I would not have this trouble.

For instance, none of the option buttons for posting work (smilies and such) If I can remember the text for them I can type it and see it later from a different computer........sheesh:roll:

:D

You laugh......I still can't veiw this site correctly on this comp.

really starting to torque me off a bit

What updates do you need?

See, now there is the problem. I don't know. all I know about it right now  is my tower works and the laptop is funky.....

other sites I visit are fine.......this one isn't????

What system (OS) are you running?

XP home

You should be able to update directly, from microsoft.  XP is the only software microdumb is updating any more.  Make sure you update to security pack 2.

Been there.............still nothing. It says I need no updated......

It sounds to me like you have some missing or corrupted files as it should show such things as smilies automatically. Which web browser are you using?

I gotta get off, I have lighting here now.

Ok brother. Don't get charged up.  :D :D

I have IE 6

tried to get 7 but it will not extract the files???

this is why I don't build computers any more

My antivirus just pulled out a win32 trojan worm.

sounds alot like the error I had when extracting files

If you have the memory space try using FireFox:

http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/central/

If some of the IE6 files are corrupt it will cause problems like that. Firefox is more stable and has much fewer security problems. It is also much easier to use. The link I gave here has self extracting simple to use files.

If that doesn't work you may need to reformat your drive.

Another reason to use FireFox.

I am getting the IE7 now, might fix it might not.

Firefox is plan B

While I like the new IE 7.........I stillcan not see the site correctly

Modzilla installed, running FireFox..................all better ::) ;D ;)

It sounds like some of the supporting files for IE are corrupt. FireFox is a better browser anyway. As I said it is a whole lot more secure. There are a lot of extra extensions available for it too that really widen it's capabilities.

::) ::) ::) ::) ::)

lol

IE is no good brother, Firefox, is 100% times better.

:P :P :P :P :P

I was reluctant to go with FireFox for a long time.........guess I am being converted :o ;D

It good to be converted as long as the conversion is in the right direction.  ;D ;D ;D ;D
