Savevid is back with it's old format so I am all set on at least the normal or usual type videos. I also installed the firefox add on. It seems to work ok. However, I still have two problems. One website, even though I am a paying subscriber, does not allow you to download the videos. I guess they want to restrict you to just having your eyeballs glued to the computer screen instead of a comfortable tv screen in the living room. I am not sure but I think they are not providing a download link. I assume there is a way to get around this but if not then I am going to cancel my subscription and save the money. Also I am adding images to the usb port device to display on the roku. Some of the images. particularly map images. are simply too small to read them on the tv screen. I guess I don't have any software on my system to enlarge then save the enlarged image. Any simple free software out there to do just this one task. Thanks

Easiest way of course is to network the two computers with a switch or router depending on how you connect ... If of course you can use the program download that you have already paid for that is on your Desktop. Or you maybe can, if it has an available, or possible temporary borrow a slot and put a wifi pci card in the desktop then its simple ad/hoc to wireless transfer anything ,,, online prices I often notice are in the $15 area for wifi pci cards. Or try out openoffice.org ,, free alternate to the MS office group of many programs.

Might try booting up in safe mode then running your Avast. To get into safe mode, hold down the F8 key while it starts up.. it will beep a lot but eventually show you the start menu. Then just use your arrow keys and choose Start in Safe mode & press enter. It will ask you again which opperating system to start... choose Windows, which is probably the only choice.
