Question: My favorite website next to TVCH of course, is jigzone.com. I do the daily puzzle every day. Today however, I have a problem. I can access jigzone.com just fine...but can't access the puzzles. It is a java applet and I think I may have a problem with that. When I click on it...the browser just shuts down and the whole page disappears. I did a search on my files by using Java applet and nothing came up. So I thought perhaps maybe hubby deleted it accidently. I googled Java applet and thought maybe I should reload one....but when I click on the free down load page...again...the browser shut down and disappeared. There are a few listings of free PC doctor website listed off to the side of the google page for Java applet and I thought perhaps my next step might be to download one of those. Good idea? or not?

Marysafan: Visit www.java.com for the official java client software. There you will find tests to verify you have the latest installed version and/or links to download the latest to install on your computer. If you continue to have problems, let me know and I will be happy to look for other solutions for you if I can. PS: Most of the online "PC Doctor" type programs aren't as free as they claim to be and usually not effective, especially for things like you're describing.

I was able to access the sight and download the files necessary to get java back up and working. My puzzles are back! Thank you so very much!

Everytime I log onto the internet, I have to go in and reset my Homepage, because a www.clicksearchclick.com keeps taking over and makes several attempts while I am online....What do I do?

Suits, you have spyware on your machine. If you don't have Ad-aware or Spybot Search & Destroy on your machine now, go download them. If you do have them, connect to the internet, open the program, update your program, and then run it. Either or both of those programs should cure your problem. Places to download the programs are linked at the top of this thread. After you get rid of the spyware, you can re-set your home page. Come back here if you don't know how to do that.

Perplexing situation here.... I purchased the Student/Teacher edition of Office about 6 months ago from Office Depot and loaded it onto my laptop. It can be loaded onto 3 machines, but my desktop has the full Office version already, so I've only used it on one machine. Anyway, 2 weeks ago, I decided that my laptop would work better if I poured 32oz of water onto it. Unfortunately, I was wrong. Anyway, the CD for Office was inside the CD ROM drive and is somehow damaged. I tried to load it onto my new laptop and was unable to get it to load. I have the receipt of purchase, the original box with certificate of authenticity, the Product ID number, and the damaged CD. Anyone know how the heck I can get a replacement CD? I searched the Microsoft website, found a way to email my question provided I have the Product ID (which I do), but I get an error every time I try to submit my question. It is incredibly frustrating and ironic that the stupid microsoft website has a looped error!

Spy, have you tried a different browser? I find that some sites NEED IE, when I usually use Firefox. I wouldn't be surprised if that was the case with Microsoft. Good luck!!

Spygirl: If you go to the Microsoft site and search for 'Replacement CD for Microsoft Office' (or click here), you will find a toll-free number to call (with hours of operation) where you should be able to place the order. (I realize that page does not relate to your specific version/package, but I'd bet they can direct you to the right place if necessary.)

Dra, My laptop arrived, and I can't connect to the internet. The wireless router didn't get here yet, but I plugged the DSL line into the laptop, and I see it has a connection, but it can't access the internet. I've tried several things (which probably made it worse) and so far no luck. Do I need a tech guy from my ISP to come out here to configure it? ARG! I'm so frustrated!

~RG~: You probably don't need them to come out. You just need to call them and they should be able to help you over the phone. It could be simply that they need to reset your connection because you have changed computers. In any case, they should be able to help without having to come out.

David, Thank you for the replacement CD number. I called and ordered one (costs $30!! Geez!), but at least I got it done.

Thanks Dra, It was stupid Norton, the firewall was on and wouldn't let anything in... my coworker downloaded Mcafee for me and now I can connect, however I keep getting a blue screen telling me of a "fatal error" and "memory dumping" or something to that affect.... and I have to shut down. Me thinks I got a lemon
