    "Cannot Display This Page" = dead browser hell. How to fix?

    A while back all browsers stopped working. I could use Yahoo IM and Eudora email, but MSIE 6, Netscape 7, and Firefox 1.02 browsers simply displayed "Cannot Display this Page." I've done the the following without relief: (1) replaced Norton Internet Security Suite 2005 with Zone Alarm Security...

    Can a USB Device kill a PC

    Delete and reinstall USP Drivers. There was no Yellow Question Mark by any device. If I do as suggested, delete and reinstall drivers, where do I get the drivers to reinstall from?

    Blurred JPG images in MSIE 6 web pages

    I am runing xp PRO SP1 AND using MSIE 6 as default browser. All of a sudden I started getting blurry rendering of JPG files (not GIF or other formats) - but only with on-line web sites, not off-line HTML or of-line JPGs. This occurred in MSIE 6, NS 7.2, and FF 1.0. Saving the pics to file and...

    On-line JPG files render poorly.

    One day, without making any significant system tweaks, additions, etc. I noticed that JPG files in MSIE 6, Netscape 7, and Firefox 1 all looked blurry and distortred (similar to overcompressing) on a Sony TR3AP2 w/XP Pro. GIF Files are unaffected. For example, if I view my web page...

    Add/Remove Control Panel QUIT Tracking

    No matter what view option I choose, the Add/Remove Control Panel does not display many of the more recent programs I have installed. It also tells me such bogus things as the prgrams I use almost daily are "Used Rarely". Any suggestions for making the A/R CP current? At present, I...

    OnMouseOut problem

    You are close. I stumbled on the solution, which involves leaving the value undefined. Thus, onMouseOut "this.bgColor=''" works fine. In both Netscape 7 and Explorer 6 the code is read as "return no cell color," which is what I wanted. Thanks all.

    Add/Remove Control Panel not complete

    Thanks BCASTNER. I have TweakUI for XP but can't seem to locate the alternate add/remove control panel. The Control Panel entry allows turning on/off extensions, not add/remove apps. My alternate question was how to log in as the administrator with the hopes that then the A/R Control Panel will...

    Add/Remove Control Panel not complete

    In the beginning..the A/R control panel worked fine in XP Pro - it listed all my installed programs. Then one day when I opened it, it only listed a couple of recently installed programs.
