I think I've figured out what has been slowing down and messing up this computer recently. That is ever since we put in the new beam all over the house modem. The old "connection," in terms of soft-ware, wasn't deleted. So, when online via the new, the old pipes up claiming that it can't connect.
It can't be repaired by our computer maven, unless he comes here. He does lots of tweaky sort of repairs long distance, via some program he put in our computer. The arrangement is much less expensive, and generally more immediate, than waiting until he can get here, since he no longer lives in the area.
Generally, I'm pretty good at diagnosing things, but I can't do the actual repair/cure.
While I'm ranting/kvetching about computer things, the pop-up comments are frequently a problem. If you have your "danger" setting too "fussy," the pop-ups won't work, since that's how many viruses, worms and other computer diseases, horses and bugs enter.
