Title: am i just useless?
Post by: bumble-dee on March 20, 2007, 21:53:09
hi to everyone and anyone who can help me.

my problem concerns the task bar at the top of this forum (home, search,profile, etc).  i can get all this no problem in my laptop which runs windows xp, but there is nothing on my pc which runs the new vista.
i also cannot reply on every thread, (even new ones), only odd ones here and there.
so, am i just useless or does anyone know an explanation for this?
hoping for help as OH uses laptop at work so am limited in the day to using the pc!
thanks
Dee

It looks like it is at the moment - I'm looking into why.

incase anyone else has probs like this, OH has sorted it for me/us. :)

basically:
click on macafee
click configure
click internet and network
on "web browsing protection is enabled" click advance
remove the tick from block advertisements that appear on web pages when you browse the internet.
click apply
restart computer.

hope this helps, im sure we can put up with the adverts (it helps dan).
