I'm back, but barely need ravencajun help

10 years ago

I just got my new computer hooked up about an hour ago and it's not much fun to change to 8.1. Ravencajun, if you're on here, I desperately need something that's familiar so want to download Firefox. Can you give me the safest site to do it from? Thanks so much.

Getting on here with all the new stuff is like going on vacation, coming back to find it's my house but everything's been changed around.

Thanks for the emails from some of you that were concerned. I only have had time to open a couple. Will respond when I have time. probably tomorrow.

Shirley

PS: There should be a comma after barely in the title.

Sure, first click on this link and download the free version of app remover for xp. Download AppRemover once it is downloaded and installed on your pc run it and it will find the current versions of anti virus programs on your pc, select the one you want to remove which is MSE. Follow the steps. Once it is removed then you can install AVG free. This is a direct download link for the free version of AVG download it to your computer and then install by double clicking the AVG.exe file. If you want to go with AVAST free version this is the direct download link for the free version. Downloading Avast! Free Edition 2014 9.0.2016.330 Final that should do it for you.

Good catch, Lisa, about the dw and dish drawers conflicting. This probably comes under a personal preference thing, but I really don't like upper diagonal corner cabinets that don't have cabinets on the adjacent wall on both sides. It looks like a connector that doesn't connect anything to me...kind of awkward in appearance, plus being deep and more difficult to access because of the reduced opening. I would, instead, run a regular cabinet flat along that stove wall, ending its side against the window wall. Then you can open it all the way...the full 2 ft... and see everything. You also don't have your lower lazy susan drawn at a full 3 ft from the wall in each direction...Want to be sure you are planning accurately and won't be disappointed by the reduction in size of the cab between lazy susan and the stove.

I fear you still have some of the infections still lingering and that could very well be interfering with your installation. I would suggest going to LzD and having Corrine look at your logs she will be able to see if any of the infection is still there and how to remove it. She is great at this she goes step by step as slow as you need. You would not want to risk having infections on it at any rate. Analysis and Malware Removal that is the link to LzD where you can create your own post, you do need to register at the forum and they will email you back. I am there and Corrine will be there to help you. Let us know so we can be watching for you.

First I would like to thank suero, parma42 and especially organic smallhouse for responding to my questions. I have finally chosen this rug that organic smallhouse suggested. I am going to do a "Try It Out for Thirty Days" to see if I can live with the print. This is the one I chose: a href="http://s108.photobucket.com/albums/n13/ambitiousbeginner/?action=view&current=detailFamilyTmp.jpg" target="_blank"> suero..can you place the rug the way you did the other, I just want to see how it will look with the sofa. I have posted the picture of the family room again below. a href="http://s108.photobucket.com/albums/n13/ambitiousbeginner/?action=view&current=DSCN0155.jpg" target="_blank"> I want your opinion again :-) Thanks

That link should get it for you.
I know exactly what you mean. I don't have any Windows 8 computers at this time, I am happy with 7.
But I can post some links that will help you.
This is to eight forums, this site is absolutely the best resource for all things dealing with 8. Be sure to check out their extensive tutorials section, they cover so much.
Can you please tell me what version of 8 you have, there's been some updates which you definitely want..

Raven: I woke up and can't go back to sleep. I downloaded FF. Now I need the links to get rid of all these ads. I've been without them for so many years because of programs I've installed. Now I don't remember what to get or where to get them.

Could you provide the links to malwarebytes and Super (something or other....don't laugh too hard at my descriptions of what I want/need). It's been 8 years since I last started from scratch on a computer.

I will definitely take advantage of the link you gave me in the next few days and/or weeks.

Maybe now I can go back to sleep.

Good to see you back, Shirley. We missed you. Glad it was just computer problems and nothing else. , although you're probably pulling your hair out about now.

there you go there is the link for ad block plus and you want to make sure to get the easylist subscription for it.
Add EasyList to Adblock Plus just clik on that line it will add it to your ad block plus.

I prefer links from major geeks they are direct downloads and all safe. Just be sure as always to watch closely as you go through step by step to uncheck any added on stuff like toolbars etc.
Malwarebytes Anti-Malware 2.01.1004 Final

SpywareBlaster 5.0
just install and update it weekly so the shield turns green. hit the update button then it finds the updates then says enable all updates click that and that should do it. When doing the download you will be taken to a page with an hourglass it says continue with download or go for the pay version just click the hourglass continue with download for the free one.

SUPERAntiSpyware Free 5.7.1018
there you go that is the free version.

Have you installed an antivirus program? Usually you will get a free trial version. You will probably want to uninstall that one and get something else like AVAST free. If you need help just let me know. I have a good program that will uninstall for you.
Here is the Avast link for when you need it.
Avast! Free Edition 2014 9.0.2016.330 Final
