    Keep in mind we can't see the machine from here...
    Post some more info on the machine; type of connection; and what happened prior to this and someone will be along shortly...

      Hi Patio,

      Thanks!

        I have netscape and internet explorer. I use AVG free and Spybot-SD resident. I hope this is what your asking.

          Well, I opened my hotmail in Explorer and it works! I don't know why this is. Thanks for the questions as it made me think about using another browser. I really appreciate this site and the good people who are there to help! ;D

          You may want to download and give FireFox a try...i think you'll be pleasantly suprised...
          Also look to see if DSL internet is available in your area...about 3 to 5 times faster for not much more...
          You can search for price and availibility Here  just by entering your area code or zip code...

          And Welcome to CH ! !
