Doy says that she was looking at the WindowsLive Groups:  Cool tools http://windowslivewire.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!2F7EB29B42641D59!29787.entry and there is a post there that went to another site http://davepegz.spaces.live.com/ and after reading through his (Dave's) posts...he had a link in there...
 
I'm very pleased with the performance and functionality so far...and I can usually tell within the first 15 minutes of using one...I can post, play games, open tabs and haven't had an issue...so far

Cool....Yoda likes Firefox a lot.  I stick with IE, cause is about all I know lol.  I have used MSN Explorer and liked that one also.  I think I have heard of Avant.  Anyone try the new Google Chrome? 
ps...."Doy" is Dot lol....sorry Dot

No biggy...I kinda feel like a 'Doy' lately...heheheheh
 
Firefox is pretty nice...but it doesn't work well when trying to post to MSN groups...the 'post' windows don't have the same features (like links, and pics) that I have in IE or Avant

Personally I am not touching anything.  We just don't understand why we can't get IM working correctly.  I can't use Live IM anymore if I install it then I can't get into anything.  Once groups ends I think I will have him reinstall IE7 that caused me so much grief in the past.  That kept me from posting in groups.  Then I will also have the laptop as backup by then.  Right now I have the "turkey" version of IM.
 
Frankie took off everything on the pc twice and reinstalled and it's the same thing.  Oh well another 12 days I think to go.
