It's not the downloading in itself that caused the temporary problems.

it was Running the app.. You probably deleted some temporary files that were needed

to run certain processes. Had you rebooted your notebook last night , things would have come

back just like they did this morning when you restarted the notebook. It was like a reboot only

longer. And no, it's not because it sat all night in the off position. It was a simple reboot. Some of the

places you were trying to reach may have also been unavailable. It happened to me last night where

I could not reach certain addresses.

CCleaner will in fact run well in XP or Vista and it doesn't matter what other program

you have on your notebook. It does not interact with any programs other then when it is

doing some Cleaning. Like I said , if you want to clean some files, Copy and Paste them

in a discussion and either MPH or rgreen or coastie or techie or Piyush or Spirit will tell

you which ones are safe to remove,

Ok, sweetie, I hope my attempt at an explanation worked for you. If not , then ask away.

Off Topic. My phone has been ringing off the hook. My Mom says , I hope I'm not disturbing you!

I'm being patient as Mom has only the use of her left hand.

Had to switch the the buttons on the mouse for her, and yes the

mouse is a unusual tool to them. This afternoon , she called saying

that she could not get in to her e-mail. Having only a left hand , trying

to do an Underscore is not easy. Tomorrow I will change her password

to make it easier. We don't think about those things until you have to

interact on that level. But, I must admit , that she is brave. Trying out new

tasks was never her strong suite. I sorta pushed her a little and with time

Mom will be able to do all of it on her own.
