Thanks so much for letting us know. I was getting an error messages that said "Connection to the update server has failed". I wasn't sure if it was AVG or my computer. I'll wait until it's fixed and try again. Dee

I just made one here as a trial... Not much to it. First I guess, you might want to right click myComputer and select properties. Then click the tab for Computer Name. Then click the button that says Change... If not already both a computer name, and a workgroup name, make up something that makes sense to you. And please if by chance no name exists in workgroup, please don't use MSHome. My laptop is TosLaptop, group name is ANYGROUP. (If you assign your computer an Identity name, it's wise to not name it same as the workgroup or the computer name - so keep that in mind visa/versa too.) Then go to control panel, Users, and on the initial page that opens choose the link for Create a new account. Give him a name and choose the button to give him Administrator privileges or Limited privileges.

I had to look at this thread since I get curious how a thread from 9 years ago gets bumped-------but I see the response above my comment is from @les917. If my memory serves me correctly- is this THE les 917 that posted years ago? If so, delighted to have you back and am looking forward to your contributions. Yours is one of the few names I remember so clearly, You were /are a rockstar. If it's not you and I have the names confused, welcome anyway.

Ooops.. Took a while to respond there. Sorry. Dryer sheets are just a way to get the fabric softener onto clothes in the dryer rather than in the wash. Fabric softeners coat individual fibers with an oil and make them separate and stand up. They are used usually because things like perfumes, brighteners, and other insoluble material in detergents can build up on fibers. In some detergents, that extra material can be upwards of 2% of the weight of the fabric (Clemson Univ. School of Textiles AATCC Test Method #61 2A Scour). Other insoluble material can come from calcium and other minerals in the water that end up in fabric. This extra material is usually irritating and can make clothes scratchy. So many people use the dryer sheets to cover this up. An upshot to the one more chemical added in the dryer is that it kills static. Charlie's Soap has shown ability to remove detergent residues like insolubles material, alkaline residues, perfumes and fabric softeners. It's not so great at removing brighteners or limestone or rust or similar hard water buildups. When you add a dryer sheet to the wash, you will get that scent, and kill the static. It will add some oils to your clothes that Charlie's Soap will have to remove on the next wash. It does not "turn it off" or anything like that, but it does increase the amount of work it needs to do to get the clothes clean. If you add a fabric softener in the wash, however, you're trying to get a detergent to remove buildup at the same time you're trying to ADD buildup. The result is usually nothing gets clean as those two fight each other. I've told several people to dry the clothes as normal and to fight static, at the last minute (or a few minutes after the dryer stops) dry the clothes for a few minutes with a wet and wrung out facecloth. If you want scent, put a few drops of your favorite essential oil on there. That should kill the static for a time and add just enough scent to smell but not so much to be a pain to remove at wash time. As to the statement about CS removes residues, there was a test done with GoreTex, Tide and our Laundry Liquid (unnamed third party). With one wash in Tide, water would pass right through the water proof garment indicating residues. 10 washes in the CS Laundry Liquid later, the water would bead up again. Compare that to the earlier mentioned Clemson test, and it shows that the residues were removed and the fabric was allowed to perform as designed. Does that help a bit...without being a commercial?
