Everything was working fine earlier, but now none of the links in the mall and the cros gate does not work, at least not for me.:0 Can someone check and see if it works for you.

Uh-oh looks like maybe I have a problem. Doesn't make sence tho, everything else works fine.

Well that alien needs to find another place to hang out. Anybody know of a good antivirus program?

AVG Antivirus is an excellent antivirus program, its fast, doesnt slow down your computer like norton, and its free! A lot of people in my profession (networking) use it.  I would also suggest you get an Anti-Spyware application. An excellent one is Ad-Aware. It is also free. You can download both these programs at http://www.download.com. To the right you will see a list of the top downloaded programs and these two programs will be at the top two. Hope that works out for you =)

Thanks, my norton is about to exspire and wanted something diff, that you don't have to keep renewing. All seems fine now, I think IE had a hiccup earlier, about to start running Mozilla Firefox.

Firefox is great. Especially with the tabbed browsing feature. Its more secure and you get less spyware/viruses with it =)

A great feature of Firefox is the Extensions and Add-ons, especially one called Ad-Block Plus, which gets rid of a lot of those advertisements on some websites that just seem to slow things down.

For an example of a website that it works well on, go to:

http://www.intellicast.com/National/Radar/Current.aspx?animate=true&location=default

which is a decent weather radar and forcast site, but as you can see, there's a lot of junk that gets in the way. Then go to the same site after installing the Ad-Block Plus extension, and see what you're missing (NOT!!). Firefox add-ons are available here at the Mozilla site here:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/

Good luck.
