BTW, I have a computer question.

My Internet Explorer frequently refuses to recognize the Free Republic address (as well as Google)...I get the Page Not Available page. If I reboot, then it will work.

I'm such a ditz on computer stuff. I downloaded Netscape, but now I don't know what to do with it. (I think HLL once said she had the same problem with IE and had switched to a different browser). Does Netscape replace Internet Explorer as my browser?

It's asking me whether I want to set it as my "default browser". Should I click "yes"?

Bizarre...

Have you checked for updates to IE?

You can have several browsers and use whichever you like. They will all ask you if you want them to be the default browser. From there you can go to Tools, and set FR, or whatever, as your homepage which will automatically open the browser there.

Good luck with it.

I had the same problem a while back w/the computer not recognizing fr. Aggie Mama helped me fix it and I'm sorry, I can't remember what she told me to do. Email her if you haven't gotten help yet (I haven't caught up on the thread, yet).
