I probably haven' done it correctly. It's not working - only taken over the sites, but not letting me in.. I still get where I want, but it just takes more time and is very irritating

In my book Yoda is pretty invincible. Have him wave a 7-iron over your laptop. I should work pretty well thereafter. |

The Chrome install doesn't touch firefox or internet explorer. Firefox is a good browser; if you're having trouble with Chrome, I'd recommend uninstalling it and sticking with firefox.

Air, we have both pc's and mac's by the hundreds here at school. I would not buy a Dell for 39 cents. There is a reason Apple is now worth more than Exxon my friends!

A Refreshing Exploration

I believe it is Internet Explorer 8. This is the only website I have been having trouble viewing.
Whenever I switch to a new topic, the page will refresh a few times before I can read it. I never had that problem until the new shortcut buttons were added to the website. Not a big deal, just a little annoying.

I'll definitely take a look. I would expect to support IE8 OK.
