Never listen to recommendations for freeware that say a program is "user friendly" or "easy to use."
Never buy a computer.
But if you've already made that fatal error, do not f-ck with the registry. Do not, in your utter ignorance, uninstall and install things as if you know something.

OMG, this is a hell of a time for you to go offline. Before you go, email me with your mailing address. I have something to send you.
Hope you're back soon!
I've already had the poke-n-scratch self-tour of the dangerous ground of unnavigable computerese, but thanks in retrospect for the warning!
LOVE the shamu link - good stuff which I have bookmarked for future reference.
