I mean the one with the browser "issues," Melody?

I'm having some myself, and mine are related to the diff. between using a shortcut to open up the browser and also whether the browser is 64- or 32-bit, user privileges, etc., and... Windows 7.

Took me a bit of time to "negotiate" the error on mine, and it's still a bit annoying, only I'd rather the error appear briefly and having a fully functional printer.

Are you using a shortcut or the actual app. to open the browser(s)?

P.S.: My printer was a bear to get working again (new computer); I had to download a new driver for Windows 7; still, after that, it depends on the browser's bit whether I can print from the Net. It was trial and error to get the "good" version of MS IE 8 to recognize and work with the printer (from the HD and (x86) instead of the reg. programs folder.

I have a 64 bit, and it has Windows XP. Everything works just fine now. I had Verizon install my Internet Security Suite, and the guy even installed my printer software. He told me to print a test page, and the back of my printer fell off. I never laughed so hard. I popped it back in and told the guy, "never mind", the printer is connected, I'll worry about it later.

Then I went to watch 24 with my husband.

So I am again, back in COMPUTER LAND.

lol

P.S. to go online, I go to my desktop and click on the Mozilla icon
