you back.

Hi group!!
Well, I'm back........

I've been having lots of problems the past week or two....unable to
download anything, bad IE screens, etc.  I finally decided that WinXP
must have had some corrupted files and it was time to reload.  Since
this computer was due to become a server at the end of the year, Tuesday
night I had my computer guru over and we decided to tear down the
current computer and move parts to another newer unused computer.=20
Surgery was done late Tuesday and Wednesday morning I loaded
software........only to find I had the same problem!!  I finally
determined that the problem was not Windows, but my router which was 7-8
years old <mega frustration!!!>.  I bought a new DSL router (8 port this
time) and started loading software again.  The next little bug was my
modem was different and for some reason the paging software I use for
the fire department and WinFax wouldn't work -- fixed that by swapping
modems (good thing I have lots of parts here).=20
Additionally, I could not send E-Mail!!!  I could receive but not send.
After much fiddling around, I finally found out that my phone company
had changed my ISP connection for outgoing
mail...........GRRRRRRRRR   >:~[

All is fixed now and I am running a 1.8 gigHz P4 with 512 meg DDR RAM
and three HDs with 150 gig total space.  Not bad for free huh!!?!  At
Christmas I plan buy a new super fast computer and this one will become
a server.

Bottom line, I'm back and everything is running just fine.  If I missed
anything important, please resend.  I admit I dumped lots of mail
without reading because I simply didn't have time to catch up to the
weeks total e-mail.  now I'll hit the books again........the EMT-B class
is intense as it's an accelerated class.
