Hi Mike
i have done that over 100 times it does not make a difference
my whole problem is that no matter what web site i go to (it doesnt matter
if its micrsoft or anything) i can not get one website to sh ow instead all i
can get is
this page can not be displayed error" obviously there is some kind of error
probably from the virus i had im just finding it hard to locate it!!!!
thanks a bunch for all of your help tho
