Hi all.
Well exactly. This is all you can do and only Rosemary can make the final decision. I wish her all the best in whatever she decides to do.
Take care.

Hello Chris;

I do understand.

I spoke to Rosemarie;
both on another list?
and privately.

I have given her steps to update her computer, through Microsoft update,
however, I leave the final decision up to her.
I've offered my help, that's the best I can do.
just looking for a virus program, really isn't going to solve much.
also, running Jaws5.10, I suspect, AVG, AVAST, or any other program,
will not work well.
so, dealing with her xp update is of a great importance, if she wishes
to continue to receive Microsoft support.

Hi all.
I will share my sentiments here.
While I appreciate Rosemary's difficulties, she needs to understand
that her computer is at serious risk of being attacked. If anyone is
running XP, they *should*, and I emphasize should, be using Service
Pack 3. Alternatively they should upgrade the operating system
altogether. I know this isn't the cheapest option though. So I will
say only if you can afford it and your computer can as well should you
upgrade the operating system altogether. Otherwise, stick with XP, but
make sure it's SP3 not earlier!
Take care.

Rosemarie, sp2 is no longer supported. U can try to download&/or
install Security Essentials from now until they install central air in
a very hot place,& it simply will not work.

U should check to ensure that your system meets the minimum
requirements prior to installing sp3.

1 other thing u should probably make certain of is that there's no
malware on your machine. In addition, certain antivirus/antispyware
programs that prohibit changes to your registry& files like those
required by sp3 should be disabled prior to installing.

U need to be aware that you're now running an unsupported operating
system& that, as such, you're at serious security risk.

Hi, David,

I tried installing SP 3 and messed up the computer so I had to have
one of
my nephews do a system restore. I do have a friend who installed SP
3 so
I'll ask him how he did it. He said he did it all by himself.

Hi, David,

As I told you over the phone, it's hard for me to get sighted help
when I
need it. My nephew is very hard to get a hold of. I don't have a
techie
right nextdoor.

hello there;

well, I'll tell you again, just as I did on the other list.

you can't, use, MSE.

your only running XP,service pack2,
so, MSE is not going to work.

I first would update your operating system, to service pack 3.

Hi, everyone,

I want to download microsoft security essentials but when I go to
download it, internet explorer won't let me. It says something like
"unable to download. Try again later". Any ideas as to what could be
causing this problem?

Any help will be very much appreciated.

Many thanks in advance.

Rosemarie
