  1. What Browser are you using to download with? If IE, go to Tools/Delete Browsing History and at the bottom, DELETE everything and put a check in the next window that Pops Up. Then click OK and let it finish. Then go to Start/All Programs/Accessories/Disc Cleanup and put a check in ALL the boxes then let it do it's thing. Then try the download again.
  2. Does it show at all in the BIOS? Do you get any error messages? It should show unless it is bad. All you should have to do is to make sure that your CDROM or CD/RW is the first boot choice and put the disc in and go from there. You can change the boot order in the BIOS. When you bootup, you should see what will take you to the BIOS. F2 or some other F key.
  3. You can open Adobe up and go to Help/Check for updates or go to their homepage.

    Friends

    That is what friends are for. Some are just better than others.
  6. Need a small prayer for Lani as he has a checkup tomorrow with the heart specialist. May need a Bypas or Baloon or Stint.
  7. That is fine. Delete the other post and leave this one. In IE7 you clicl on Tools/Manage Add-ons and that is where you fixed what you fixed.
  8. Malwarebytes DOES NOT replace AVG. These are two different programs that do two different things.
  9. The section that they are in are kind of self explanatory. They just have different links to different programs that basically do the same in some instances.
  10. Ir you are using Spybot 1.5, you are about a year behind everybody else. They are up to 1.6.0.30 and they just had another program update last week that brought it up from 1.6.0.28 to 1.6.0.30. If you will uninstall Spybot, download CCleaner, run it, then run the registry cleanup, then try to install Spybot again. If you will look at my signature, that is all I run on all my PC's. I have 4 of them all together. 2 of them I have grandkids over here everyday and they get on them all the time. If I have more come over, they use all of them. I have just started running Malwarebytes about a couple
  11. KeyScrambler FREE Works both in IE and FF. Scrambles what you are typing wiht random leters, symbols etc. http://www.qfxsoftware.com/products.htm
  12. Here is a neat little FREE program that I would not be without. I have it on my Desktops as well as my Laptop. http://www.qfxsoftware.com/products.htm
  13. It was a decent program at one time. Ain't no more.
  14. What is in my Signature is what I have on ALL my PC's. I don't remember when I got the last cooty. The grandkids get on mainly 2 of them unless they are all over here. Then it is a free for all and I still don't have enough. They each have their own at their house and they have what I have. I have only had trouble with one of them as they had shut off AVG for some reason. They don't know why. It was a quick fix. All of them are like me and behind a router and use only Window's Firewall.
  15. When we had a PC Club and got an old donated PC in, most of them didn't have much ram in them. We would basically double the ram, reinstall the OS, install AVG, and ZA as the firewall and a couple of programs like Spybot and SpywareBlaster (after doing a complete wipe of the HD). To keep from spending much money on these PC's, we would buy the cheapest ram that we could get as long as it was the same ram or at least backward compatible ( Example, 133 to 100) and go from there. Never had a problem with any of them coming back. I would do the work and then use the PC as my own for a week or so b
  16. ZA doesn't support 98 anymore. You would have an older version.
  17. Are you using a ROUTER? If so, that should be sufficient. http://majorgeeks.com/Sygate_Personal_Fire...Free_d3356.html Works with 98 and up. I think that it is still FREE.
  18. Martymas wanted the dog, but I had already sold him. Got a bailout, 5 stimulus checks and some cash under the table in unmarked bills.
  19. I am always anonymous. The site that I sent you has updates to 98 that you can't get from MS anymore. It has been a while since since I have used any of them.
  20. And also get the latest version of HJT.
  21. Put it on a Floppy or CD and when it asks for it, point to it.
