    Why does satelliteguys.us make my Vista laptop shut down when I click on forums

    Using IE7 with XP here and no problems. Might also be a Vista problem. I think Vista is just Bill Gates way to bring back ME with fancy graphics. :D

    ANTI VIRUS SOFTWARE

    Avast plus an occaisonial sweep with Malwarebytes. Avast is also free for home users and so is the basic version of Malwarebytes.

    WHAT ROUTER WOULD YOU RECOMMEND

    Dlink DGL-4500 GamerLounge is the way to go! It's a bit expensive compared to most routers but you'll love it.

    Recommendations sought - best netbooks?

    I looked at it but I really really want the 10" screen. I'm probably grabbing the Asus 280N based at compusa tomorrow.

    Recommendations sought - best netbooks?

    I really liked the Acer keyboard but the thing comes with bloatware that slows it down. The Asus seemed peppier but I hated the keyboard and mousepad. Asus price is right and last week was $349 at Best Buy

    IE 9

    Easy answer for me. I have FF and tried Chrome (hated Chrome). I also have opera but it's so big and clunky. The lesser of the evils for me at least is IE7.
