I had some problems last week-end and now I cannot get to any site that requires JAVA apparently. I am trying to order my mom's prescriptions thru Merck-Medco and I get the opening page and cannot get any further. I also tried AdvanceRX with the same result. I do not see any banners under any posts on the POA.
Any computer gurus have any clues for me. I am still clueless in Cincinnati.

Those questions are moot. I called Dell, 3 or 4 times and we took the computer back to basics. Lost everything. No big deal but it still has some glitches. I will work with what I have until I figure out what to do next.

Chuck,
Wouldn't that make a great name for a sequel to "Sleepless in Seattle"-"Clueless in CT"

Ed, Two possibilities come to mind:
1- Java is disabled. Go to Tools at the top Internet Explorer and click on the Security tab to see the current setting.
2- You pop-up ad blocking software that is possibly preventing the Java from running.

Thanks Mike. I reconfigured the computer back to ground zero. I have to figure out how to retrieve email from Road Runner instead of MSN and resize my screen and I think I am in good shape. I should have that finished by the Smoky Mtn. trip. lol.

Okay, everything seems to be working perfectly except I cannot reduce the size of the screen so that it fits. I am going to control panel and setting but it will not permit me to reduce it.
It's as hard as Dell, I tell you.

Ed, If you're trying to change resolution, right click on your desktop and select properties, then the settings tab, then reset your screen area on the slider.

Hope this helps!

Mike, it would not let me slide it. I just called Dell and I had to re-install the Drivers and that did it. SUCCESS. Thanks a lot for the suggestions. Everything is working. I did not know the POA had colored pictures. lol.
