    Computer help please!!!

    My Hubby, the wonderful man that he is decided to clean out my computer! Now nothing works like it used to! Especially the Internet! I have no idea what he did, but it just isnt working right. I cannot log onto any site that has my personal info on it!! You know like online stores and such, i can get on the site, but once i got to register/sign on, it come up " this page cannot be displayed" or something like that. I just tried to go to Lowes.com to look at a few things and i cant even put in my zip code it keeps telling me that i need to have cookies enabled or something! WTH!! I am so frustrated!!! could someone please help me?????

    ahhh haaaaa...hubby changed your security settings. It is easy to change back unless he passworded them.

    1. On the top of your web page click on Tools
    2. then click Internet Options
    3. Then Click Privacy.
    4. the adjust the slide bar to medium (that is what I use and it usually allows you to log into secure sites with cookie)
    5. Click apply
    6. Click ok


    that should do it. If not let me know and I will see what else he may have changed.

    OK, HE pays for the repair person!!! LOL

    However, if you call the company that provides your internet service, they can help you. Call Tech Support (even if it's not free, your hubby can foot the bill! ), tell them you need their expert help. Then tell them hubby "fixed" your computer, and they will get you back on track!

    Plus, it will give the techs a smile at a stressful time of year.

    Also - ask them how to password protect your stuff so hubby can NEVER do this again!!
