JDoors: You dated my ex-wife? When did THAT happen?

I read carefully, and was amused.

One of the many problems facing Americans (other than the fact that heath care insurance is unavailable to 49 million people and too expensive for a lot of the rest) is the demise of the General Practitioner. Only 2 percent of medical school students are choosing GP as a a course of study. Everything is now a specialty. The wholistic approach is almost nonexistent in modern medicine. Personally, I have to spend enormous amounts of time just getting referrals to four different specialists, non of which are interested in knowing what else is going on with my body. I am also a believer in alterna

I was just talking to my doctor about Fibromyalgia last week. He's considering it a possibility because af all the pain I have. Tests are next week. We'll see.

Good article, Peaches. Also the OTC pain killer Aleve is actually Napraxon, or as it's also known as, Naprosyn, in a lower dosage. The purpose of all the NSAIDS are actually their anti-inflammatory effects, which then lessen the pain. Unfortunately I am way too familiar with all of the above.

Reader (that's what the Dick & Jane textbooks were called back in first grade.)...."Get your Readers out children"...... I can still hear Sister Mary Regina saying that now, forty five years later. Now my "readers" are the reading glasses I get at the 99 cent store.

Thanks Pete C. I'll give that a try.

Thanks.

Don't want to get swine flu or any other type of flu....... 1:WASH YOUR HANDS. Often. And keep them out of your nose, eyes, and mouth. It's amazing how many people still do not do this. 2: When you are standing next to some idiot that is sneezing and coughing, leave immediately. 3: If you are unforunate enough to have to go to a doctor's office or hospital, DO NOT pick up the magazines in the waiting room. Guess who has just been sneezing, and coughing all over them?

Happy Birthday!

I just spent two hours installing and uninstalling IE 8 three times. Each time I would install and then tell it NOT to add all the crap add-ons (accelerator, etc.) But it did anyway. Then it kept trying to set Windows Live as my search engine even though I selected to keep Google. Is there a way to JUST get the security features of IE 8 without all their garbage add-ons? Thanks

Thanks all. I'm installed IE8 on another computer and did see the results that Pete C mentioned. I'm becoming more of a FF user lately. It took me awhile to come around ( 6 years ) but I now like it. Hi Marty! Good to see you. I agree; safe and scared is usually boring. Joe

Thank you all for the help. Terrorist: I really like Tight VNC and am now using it for my network. Shanenin: Yes I did find the free version of LogMeIn. This is the program I am now using for remote access for her laptops. It works very well, and being that she does not have to do anything other than turn it on, it will save me a lot of grief. It's a remarkable program, and it's free! iccaros: You are absolutely right. One of the first things I did was create a seperate Admin user account and change all other user accounts to limited. I password protected the admin account. I also set up WP
