A dial-up connection is less vulnerable, but still at risk.

Sounds like a configuration problem -- you need to set it to allow certain trusted sites to have access. (That might require the Pro version; see if yours supports this.)

Another question, if you will. When I bought my computer it had 128 MB of RAM. Told the guy to add an additional 128 MB for a total of 256. However, when I click on MY Computer->Properties->Performance, it only shows 248.0 MB of RAM. Why? Shouldn't it show 256?
...
It's all there. Just being used by Windows. Can't remember how much mine shows but it is a little less than the 512 I have.

Tut, tut - NerdDad, you overlooked the obvious explanation for why a nice, even 8 megs of system memory is "missing". I'd bet a large amount of money that 4ourprogeny has a computer with an integrated video chipset, a la the Intel 810, which is taking 8 megs of system memory and using it for video RAM.

Now turn in your pocket protector and slide rule as you leave ;)

Aww man. I didn't even think about that. What's the emoticon for poking my bottom lip out. Or better hiding my face in shame. I should have known this because my kid's pc takes 4meg for the same reason. And I just got this new pocket protector. Do I have to take the tape off my glasses too?

Wellll, I suppose I'll let it slide this time - it's relatively early, and you may not have had your recommended nerd allowance of caffeine yet ;)

Sounds like the voice of experience. My allowance/requirement is very high. I am in at 4 am to have orders booked and the mainframe up by 7 am. Gets a little blurry eyed occasionally. Especially if I have a band booster meeting the night before (or otherwise want to have a life).

I have heard stories of this "life" of which you speak. But they are only stories...

Thanks for responding and clearing up the missing RAM. I thought I had been cheated by the guys who sold me the PC.

No trouble at all. :^)
