I hit my desktop icon for either of my two email sites, and
when the page comes up (yahoo or gmail) I either type new
sites in the address line, or I bring down stuff i have in
bookmarks in folders and open them in tabs.
I tried to set up a folder with this microsoft thingy
in several bookmarks, (and I signed up as a MSN (word?)
member), bec. I found some really good info sites in this
microsoft thingy (I don't know what you call the overall
thing. it's not a program, is it a site? and this is a
page?) but when I signed out (fortunately I still had this
page on a tab) of one tab, I lost it all and just came back
on this weird search page.
I know how to set up links on the links bar, if that
helps. I don't think I use outlook express. i don't use
it for email. i use yahoo and google. is my browser
Mozilla? I have both Mozilla and I have the Google desktop
search cause one of my sons said put that in, since Win. XP
Search never helped me. But I don't use it much from the
top (I mean by hitting the desktop icon and
"opening"--right word?--in google)..If I use google I just
get to it from a Mozilla search box on one of my toolbars.
Im sorry it takes so many words for me to answer, but
i don't have the right terminology yet to know how to
answer quick. I can't use IE alone, i have to go thru Firefox.
If you can help me get a grasp of what you mean, I
would really appreciate it. Im trying!

How are you accessing the newsgroup? Outlook Express or your web browser?

I answered but I hit new post instead of reply, so i don't
know where it went. if you can find it and read it i would
really like to finish this up, but i don't even know where
new posts go. this is all SO discouraging. I don't even
know how to get back to this site, unless I just keep it
minimized and running. I bookmarked it, but that just
gives me a homepage and im not putting in the right search
words. i never do.

I hope somebody's out there that can help me soon! I can't
find a new download, can't fig out how to find my download
list (which I think is a wizard?),which ive seen on my
screen as a window, and Im not sure that would help, but I
have spent 2 hours checking everything in my XP. And of
course Search is no good. I've never yet managed to get
anything from Search ever. it keeps wanting me to ask for
a file or folder or person, even I know a software
extension is none of these. Ive been a user long enuf to
know that Search only works if you already know the answer.
Ive never been in a chat thing before, so please
excuse me up front if I don't use the right terms or protocol!
