Technical problem

[Buster]

I am now operating under IE-8...Because IE-9 would not let me open any kind of attachments in my Yahoo-Mail account.

So far everything seems to running smoothly now...

IE upgrades. You gotta love them.

Honestly..I don't know a whole hell of a lot of anything about all this cumputer stuff..no really, I'm that behind times...So when I find something I'm use to and operates without little glitches..then I'm happy.....My computer life involves only;..ebay, google, yahoo mail, MSN News and a couple of forums like this one and some MS Office work...that's it..

I know what you mean Busterman. Hanging on to XP and IE 8 as long as I can. The wife "needed" a new computer so I am dealing with Win 7, Office 2010 and Windows Live Mail 2012. All e-mails and documents ever created must be easily available using the current software. Not a joyful endeavor since some go back to the 90's.

I used to be able to deal with the change but the last few upgrades seem to have been radically different.

Next I could go on to upgrades at work and unforeseen consequences. I actually did write some stuff about that but decided why bother.

Bottom line on that is cyber security rules, having newer apps is best, customer support is somewhere down there around goal 238.

A truly secure network is one the customer can never access. Then all you have to worry about is hackers, who will always find a way in.

The problem is that they are trying to Meld Cell Phone internet access with normal computer internet access in one operating system and it's full of glitches. Getting too complicated for the too complicated geeks.

Just a note that for some time now (a couple weeks or more?), the link on the home page to "Market Futures Quotes" no longer goes to futures, but rather a number of quotes for the S&P's performance from the previous day. It's probably not a big deal, as most of you are asleep during the futures, and I use other sources when I'm on a computer. But I liked using this link from my iphone as it was handy and easy to access.

It just adds an extra click. Once you go to that page, select the "Stock Futures" link.

Easier said than done, if you have the sprint network, that extra click adds another 5 minutes...

You shouldn't be Checking the Futures while driving, anyway. That's a DWCF

FYI:

When I click "Mark Forums Read" ...I get this instead;

Unfortunately, the forums read issue is ongoing. The folks at vbulletin are aware of it but have not provided a fix yet. Sorry.

No biggie...I figured you might of not known about the little issue...
