I fixed my problem now, i just uninstalled SP2, and all is back to normal. SP2, aggrivated my McAfee Internet Security because of Windows Security Center, gave me connection problems with AOL (i could never get that patch after, i even contacted AOL - as lousy as their help service was, and even Microsoft about it), not to mention, it hogged a lot of CPU too and made my PC even slower again to load up and do things. The only benefit i found was that Windows Movie Maker was working again, but this wasn't really a good reason for me to keep it, so i just removed it. Just goes to prove that sometimes, older can be better
You've clearly convinced me also that Firefox rules compared to IE. So i'm going to get that definetly!
I'm a bit new to this Firefox business though, can it block popups etc. that IE can't. Does it cope with Flash and ActiveX Applets OK? Any other things it can do which IE can't?
Thanks again
