Hello Tina, You could do a system restore under your system tools menu if you have windows xp and restore your pc to an earlier date(back to when it was working). I am not sure how vista works. You could also uninstall your software under add or remove programs in the control panel and re-install it. Hope you get it working! Tammy

Thanks for the info. I am in no way stupid, but my skills are heavily in language and anything related to math can easily sandbag me. I am afraid of making my computer problems worse if I try to fix them, because that is exactly what has happened in the past. I don't open suspicious files but I still get an occasional worm or virus. I live in the country, precisely, among many Mennonite farmers, and technology has not found its way very deeply into this area. Getting technical help out here from Syracuse is expensive. MY ISP, TDS, whom I hate because I believe they gravitate toward underserved areas and then exploit their customers, offers an expensive monthly "service" to keep my computer fast and clean, but it is expensive and I am suspicious od TDS. I am fortunate that I can get DSL because many of the people out here are still stuck with dialup service. Few dare to try satellite service and I have heard nothing good about it. As I said, I research anything and everything that crosses my mind or which I want to buy and I am certain I am encouraging problems that way. I will ask the guru who is eventually coming about imaging. I have Asperger Syndrome and don't deal well with change and that is why I cling to MS products--I got started on them with an ISP employee sitting next to me, who set them up, and instructed me in their use. I have tried different browsers and mail programs in the past but the differences in them were extremely annoying. Another thing--I don't "intuit" very easily and things that seem obvious to others never dawn on me. I can and do learn but I need to find a tutor who can figure out how to explain things so I can grasp them. Still, I have compelted two MS degrees and theses with high honors since computers took over the libraries.

I just did this last week for my new laptop. To export Bookmarks: Go to the top row of the Firefox window...The one with File,Edit,History... Click on Bookmarks, then select "Organize Bookmark" A window will open...in the top line...click on "Import and Backup" then select Import. It will ask you for a file to copy to.. To restore the bookmarks onto the new laptop, follow the same steps, and select restore. Good Luck....it really works nice. The hardest part is finding where to do it.

Thanks to all of you who took time to respond. My dh and I have concluded that the dark brown is really not what we are liking in that room. htnspz really hit the nail on the head with bringing up the light issue. In addition to the dark color , we live surrounded by trees. So now my new question is a paint choice. In our downstairs, we have some strong colors such as Hampshire gray and a barn red. In the foyer I have a sand beige which is much like sepia tan by bm and does have a little peach undertone to it. This sitting room is off of this color. With all of the color going I am need some neutral relief. Please comment with paint suggestions. I love color but don't want my my house looking like a circus. Thanks so much.
