after much trouble posting-finally fixed-see how---
After so much trouble posting on this board, quitting it for a couple of months, and missing it, I finally got Mozilla Firefox installed as was suggested here, and so far, NO PROBLEMS!!!! IE just wasn't working! Thanks to all of you who suggested it, and to Patrice for her help. My only problem now, is I am again, spending too much time (but enjoying it!) on the board, and not enough time at my sewing machine!! I know many of you have complained about the same problems-so you might give Firefox a try.
