well im back on line for now, a friend i work with gave me a old compaq he had, it's five years old, slower then normal, but it got me back on line. man i just don't know what i would do if i could never get on line again. i feel like i have missed so much on here. almost like a family member leaving and not seeing them for a long time. thanks to a few of you on here who tried to help me with my computer problem, what a mess.
