Spent hours on it. Done that maybe six times. And each time I get a perfect download except for one thing: each time it blocks access to the Internet. Making an almost perfect program except, of course, it is totally useless if it won't go there. And each time . . . it won't. Thanks for responding, though.
Would it be possible for any of you fine IHUBBERs to copy a search engine and send it to me? Would that make it possible for me to have a working Search? That could really help me if it can be made to work.
Used restore to get 'a' program but . . . still don't have a search engine, or Bookmarks or a printer button. Got back here but I still have the same programs I did have . . . and still don't have the programs the hackers took from me.
Beats me. I wish I knew a way to get a working Search.
I agree completely. For $150 they can solve some of my W7 problems. I'd like that. Or I can simply apply those same bucks to a new machine. Will make a few more efforts this week and make a decision.
Yes I do, but I never call her. We have each other's email. But even that I don't want to intrude on. I will fix this mess or buy a W10. Make that decision this week.
Larry, thank you. Fingers and toes and eyes crossed. I will go there in a couple of minutes, need my second cuppa.
This morning, trying to work with the remaining pieces of my Windows 7? Looks like I have no choice. But . . . I have maybe 150 to 200 Bookmarks on this desktop . . . and cannot now access even one of them. No idea how to move them to a new W 10. They are here. But hacked so I can't get them. And wouldn't know how to anyway. W 10 seems worse than what I have. But maybe it is just me.
A half hour this morning from the time I turned this junk on? Until I finally found a way to get to IHUB. That's no fun.
Marilyn, good morning. I spent three hours last night trying to fix programs in this old Windows 7 computer that the hackers made a mess of. Now? It is far worse. Took me a half hour this morning to get here. I'm ready to give up.
Windows 10? I don't want it but . . . this thing is hopeless.
Sharp? You said: "I'm using Win 7 Home 64-bit". I was too, but after being hacked I have only a few bits of it left.
Beginning to look like I have to buy my sixth computer, none of the old five work.
Fats, I tried Google (whose politics I absolutely hate) and they tried to sell me eleventy dozen programs. And my Malware told me each time NOT to buy. I hope I didn't.
I had a go-phone for seven years, gave no one the number. It was for my use only, and I made ONE phone call on it all those years. And was quite satisfied. But it seemed time to clean it so I unintentionally added it to my laundry. It came out cleaner than ever. Really looks great. Doesn't work at all anymore, but it is CLEAN. And dead. Got a new phone. Have no idea how to make it work. I look at it. It looks at me. One of us is brighter than the other and I have an idea it might not be me.
I may have mentioned that I know mostly nothing. Like: I don't seem to have a start button. And when I got to the site you suggested (wow, I think that really shd work, but . . .) it would only go back to Jan 1 of this year. I need to go back a few months. And everything locked up and I couldn't go on, or back, or up or down.
And it said it couldn't do anything until I closed Firefox. Which I could not do. Hackers made a mess out of my desktop.
The hackers attacked IHUB and did much damage. They also eliminated three of my most used programs. I hear that it is possible to move back in history to a previous point on my computer. With what is left of this desktop, is there an easy way to do that? It would have to be easy for me to understand it. And my puter may not go there now. I have Windows 7, do I have to junk this puter and buy a new W 10? I could. I don't want to. And don't know how to. But if there is no other way . . .
I barely have enough face to contain that smile. And it lasts a month.
Marilyn, at the blood clinic I have a favorite, had her weekly for a few years. I once got one hug from her in a special situation, but she tells me she is quite in love with her husband and does not usually hug others. The hugs I get are when I make the monthly three minute visits to my blood doctor and that is a separate building much further away. I'm quite pleased at what I get there. After he looks at my numbers and says he will see me again next month, he goes down the hall. And I then find friendly nurses around the area, he is out of sight, hugs begin. I shall not complain.
I have lots to say about my new cell phone. Lucky you, I will say them to myself.
Marilyn I did go to the blood clinic and gave my usual very valuable two quarts of AB- blood. They test it and throw it away. Gives me a warm feeling. Or something else.
Ladies? Keep those kisses coming, you keep me smiling.
Morning Marilyn. Before giving blood each Monday morn I am not allowed coffee or serial or anything. A sip of water. I'll make it.
My new Trac-phone will easily take pictures it says. Nowhere on this planet are available instructions on how to transfer the pics to this hopeless old Winders 7 desktop I'm using. I have five computers. Four are dead, useless. This one got stuck in IHUB's hacker action recently and lost a few programs. Like Bookmarks and my Dogpile Search program. I have no idea if this elderly puter could be fixed . . . and I don't want Winders 10. so taking phone pictures is simple? Maybe. But useless if I can't transfer them to this junker puter and use them. And the mfr doesn't make any effort to show how . . . IF it could be done.
lololololol I smoked my first cigarette when I was 25, hosting a double table poker game at my house whilst in college. Got a one pack a day habit, quit ten years later. Quit for five years, got divorced and started one pack a day again. Quit forever . . . simply stopped smoking . . . in the 1980's. No interest in ever smoking again. Thanks but no thanks.
I'm gonna make an absolutely honest statement and I know you won't believe it. I was young in the Army before guns and planes were invented and I never once . . . NOT ONCE saw a doobie. Not once. And got an honorable discharge and then went to college. Worked hard at it and got my degree in three and a half years and NEVER ONCE SAW A DOOB. Never smoked one, 83 years old now and NEVER ONCE HAVE I EVEN SEEN A DOOB. Of course I haven't smoked one, I have never even seen one. Amazes me. And you don't believe me but it is true.
You two: Chubby and the Stock, are two of my most favorites. Wish a couple of others had your qualities.
The stairwell?
Larry, interesting. I hadn't thought of that. He's the only person I talk on the phone to, my best bud of 44 years. So I do know his number. If it will take his number I don't HAVE to have his name with it. I'll try it after lunch. Thanks.
Larry, I don't see one. A pro from the company emailed me and said he would solve any of my problems. That would be nice. But it won't be today (Sunday) and tomorrow morn you know where I will be. But maybe tomorrow afternoon. We shall see.
I'm patient, and messing with it the last two days I have made some progress with it, but this Desktop I'm using (W 7 ) is much of my problem. And I don't know how to resolve it.
Stock, thanks for answering. I will try it.
I might be the oldest person on IHUB. No matter. I know almost nothing. I bought a new phone two days ago and don't understand much of anything it will do. I am fumbling around, and slowly finding some answers. But one thing baffles me (well 20 or 30 things but here's one): I want only one fast dial on it and it says to enter the name. The name is Bob. I enter an 'A' but I want a 'B', then an 'O' but I can't get one. Where can I find directions to write each letter?
Still trying to finger out how to operate my new phone. There were no electronics two or three centuries ago when I was born. But I keep fussing with it, reading the onorous manual and learning slowly. But one thing total puzzles me: trying to enter a name for my best bud. His name is Bob. Sorta. And I can enter an 'A' but I think I want a 'B'. Then an 'O'. Don't know how to do that. This is giving me wrinkles.
If you have time and patience . . . hold them. I have patience but I may not have much more time. No matter.
I've got over a thousand new silver dollars. I will simply sit on them.
Morning Larry. I eat too much and some wrong things. My fault, my problem.
Morning Stock. I live alone, shop and cook for me. No one to blame other than me. Or you.
Growing up I always wanted to look exactly like Mr Clean. Instead I ended up looking like The Michelin Man. Oh, well . . .
I've never done any of those. Never will.
Arrow, THANK YOU. I believe I can make that work. Wish my Bookmarking system still worked. When IHUB got attacked I lost a few features. This was one of them.
Arrow, thank you. A phone similar to mine is shown, and maybe that will give me answers. I'll save that.
No. And I like Youtube. I shall try it but so far the Internet, even this MFR say my new model doesn't exist. They may be right.
Great week except for soaking my go-phone. Oh well . . . gonna go find something in the kitchen to eat. Any football games tomorrow? Like Superiorbowl, for example?
I would agree completely but I suspect . . . he will tell me just to read the onorus manual. But I tried that and cannot even find a way to check the charge. Must be some way . . . but I didn't find it anywhere. The manual says for me to go to the website and it will teach me. Talk to the helpers and they have no idea what I am talking about. I was born two or three centuries ago, before electronics.
I don't like to talk on the phone. Sometimes I try it but I'd rather read. But I never give anyone my cell phone number. It is for my twice a year . . . maybe . . . use. If I knew how. I leave it turned off, don't call me, email me.
