Larry, thanks. And as you can see, I'm back. I finally found the "contact us" link on the bottom of the page and learned something. If you try to post 3 pics in 3 different posts one right after the other, the spam filter catches and blocks you. So for those of us too pc illiterate to post 3 pics at once, good to know. Or even if you post in different forums, they said leave 10 minutes between them. I think this sucks but I understand they have to filter out the spam.

LOL, Rosa - I had trouble setting up my iPad, too...I think I somehow bypassed the first setup screen. Took forever to figure out how to tell it I wasn't in Bermuda! :) They sure leave a lot of it up to you to figure out. I finally found the iPad user's guide on the Apple website. My mom keeps saying she wants to buy a new car. Her current car is a 1988 model (I think), and she hates both change and technology. I can't imagine trying to teach her about a new car with all the changes they've made since 1988! My brother got her either Dish TV or Direct TV one year. The guy came and installed all the stuff and left. Well, he may have given her the 2 minute training session they tend to give! LOL Anyway, she turned the TV on, her favorite channel wasn't at the right number, and she called them to cancel it and come get their equipment. They cancelled the service but no one ever came to get the dish and other stuff, so they are still there. She won't even let us unplug any of it because she's afraid her house will burn down or something. >sighsighDonna

joann- You can also relax about it being a virus. It's just one of hundreds of things that can be adjusted on a computer and every one of us sometimes hits the wrong key. If you have more complex questions in the future, the Computer Help Forum here on GardenWeb is a good place to go.

Whew. Glad it's fixed! My mom and I went through something simliar years ago. Except, dummy me, I couldn't figure out what she meant. Until I finally drove over and saw it in person. Ah ha. Click, click, fixed. Now if I could've just gotten in via remote desktop it'd saved me a drive. She had the taskbar on the side and I just couldn't figure out what she meant. A "sidebar". Huh? She'd unlocked the taskbar, and slid it so that it was vertical instead of at the bottom and horizontal. Got it. I thought she meant she had an auxillary "thing" going on. HA!
