RE: MS Updates...

Thanks for that Lonely Ghost...

However, from time to time I find the list of updates that I try to download sort of gets started, and then the connection just dies. Has this ever happened to you? If so, do you know what the problem might be? It's not a serious problem, but it's a pain.

And regarding another issue...I keep getting this "Cere" popup that keeps haunting me whenever I am using IE. I must have some spyware that's hijacked my IE browser but I can't get rid of it. I have spybot, but it hasn't found it.

Any suggestions?

And one other unrelated issue. I can't seem to find a girlfriend. Is it me, or is there something wrong with my computer?

Thanks
bobsled.

1. its you
2. its you
3. its you
4. its your computer.


actually: yes, sometimes the MS connection goes kaput ... no idea why.

try pestpatrol (its free) to look for the spyware ... also consider changing to Firefox web-browser ... fewer problems. one way to get rid of some of the spyware stuff is to do a system restore to the time before the problem started.

if i knew shit about women i wouldn't be here on perb now would I?

RE: Tech support...

Now that's what I call good tech support...

It's you
It's you
It's you
It's you're computer.

(you know I'm just kidding around).

But firefox and pestcontrol are good suggestions. Never heard of them. I will seek them out and give them a try. Thanks, Man.

System Restore....now you're starting to scare me. ;-)

And about finding a girlfriend...I'm going to call Dell tech support in the morning and see if they can help.

Later,
bobsled.
