Help with downloading to Acer Aspire one

Options
Hi,
My daughter has a Acer Aspire one which is a fab mini laptop which we all use,
although we have been experiencing some problems and hope someone can help us....
We don't know the password to authorise downloads so we can update the laptop i.e flashplayer etc..
As we don't know the password we can't add free security from the internet either.
I have been on the youandyourwedding website numerous amounts of times on this laptop and all of a sudden last week it started to open the website but just kept trying to open it on the same tab like refreshing the page put would never fully upload the site to browse?? I know its not the site as we can access the site from my own laptop so a little confused.
Any help would be appreciated
Thank you
Katy

  • Have you tried asking on www.aspireoneuser.com?

    Yes, AA1s are great: I own one myself.

    Sounds as if you are using Linux Linpus Lite. The password is the one you chose when you set the computer up. Has she forgotten it?

    Just in case you did not create your password,
    000000 is the default password that Acer always use, were i work we refurbish a lot of Aspire one's and we use that same password
