Sorry ~ forgot about them

Heres any adons you may require (Flash etc)
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/browse/type:7

google 'google toolbar' if you want that too

Can you elaborate on the 'monitor' thing??

Not sure about the firefox symbols. Do they both do exactly the same?

Thanks, Marty J; another resident :A - ever the voice of reason and wisdom.


Katie,

No offence was intended personally. Trust aliEnRIK, you're in the safest hands around. Just be sure you realise how lucky you are to have him to turn to. Free.

And therein lies my real point. What, shipwrecked on the rocks of Windows grief, would you do if you didn't have him to turn to?

Not everyone can afford to take that risk. Those who can't, buy Macs.


aliEnRIK,

You're right about that one! Out of self-interest, Mac users should just remain silent and watch safely in horror from the sidelines. :cool:

But it really is all about the operating system, not the hardware. Who'd buy a Mac to run Windows?

That's why I usually stay out of the endless disputes about Macs versus PCs.

You buy a Mac because you want to use OS X and not Windows. So, you pay what that costs: end of story.

What nobody seems to factor in when they get into cat-fights about Macs and PCs is the very real cost in time and anguish that is expended in dealing with the problems Windows attracts. And that dwarfs the difference in buying price between the two.

Personally, I buy Macs because when I switch my laptop on, a thousand miles from home, because I need to use it, I don't want to find it won't work because it's become infected with something. I need it to work - first time, every time, and get the job done with no downtime.

Still, I don't want to disrupt this thread: you've got a damsel in distress to help.

(Because she's using Windows...:cool: )

See ya in another thread, matey, when you aren't so busy on a mission of mercy. :beer:

when downloading any of these addons that you gave me the link to. How do i stop them all going on my desk top ?? not sure i need to download now or not ill wait till prompted angain is best i think dont you .......lol i'm so crap at this

firefox symbol = yes they do the same thing put me onto firefox start up page

The " monitor thing " = popped up in a little box ,at the top it says monitor underneath it said invaild id,and on top it had a box to click ok so i did and it went . not sure if its a problem or not

aliEnRIK

Dont panic about the monitor thing. See how things progress with that
Delete one of the firefox symbols if they both do the same (Theyre only 'shortcuts' anyways)

Upto you about installing. I tend to put em all on my desktop then install (But only download what you think you need ~ eg FLASH, READER, JAVA and WMP)
