I now recommend the Microsoft Security suite, also free, and well received by the computer techs. I am using it since my McAfee will expire in July and they are not offering me any kind of price break. Norton is available from Comcast but I would prefer not.

My sister cannot open a web page because it tells her she need to enable java script. She is running Vista. Internet Explorer 8.0. I have goggled and followed all the instructions and it still won't work. We have compared all the settings with her laptop which also has Vista and with mine which is XP. All settings are the same. She can access the page in question with the laptop and I can with mine. I unistalled Java and reinstalled it. No help. We ran a test on "Computer Hope" site. When the results come up,under "yours" it shows missing on her desktop computer but lists the latest version on both her laptop and mine. Any help is appreciated. Mary

Try resetting IE8 by going to [ Tools / Internet Options / Advanced ] and clicking on the [Reset] button. It won't delete favourites but will change the home page back to the original one so that might need changing back to whatever is usually used. -- Best regards, Barry mailto:[email protected] MicroSoft Free Zone running Ubuntu 10.04 'Lucid' 64bit

Thanks for replying Barry, We tried reset but it still shows java script not enabled. Guess she will have to use her laptop whenever she wants to visit that one site.
