Ok, I have a computer problem and I can't seem to fix it. I was surfing the net last week and I got 155 nasty bugs in my computer!! No lie, when I ran Spybot and AdAware I had 155 of them. Running those two programs wouldn't get rid of some of them, they were evidently pretty bad ones, so I did a "non destructive recovery" which essentially turned my computer into the day I bought it, but my pictures and stuff was still left behind.

That got rid of the viruses, (I think) but some of my programs evidently went out the window too. Biggest problem I have now is that I can't post pictures on here. When I do a "post reply" I get all the normal stuff, but the block down below where I used to click on "manage attachments" is no longer there. Here is what I have down there:

iscellaneous Options
Automatically parse links in text
Disable smilies in text
Attach Files
Valid file extensions: bmp doc gif jpe jpeg jpg pdf png psd txt zip
Thread Subscription
Notification Type:

There is NO box to click on that says manage attachments. Also, I can no longer click on smiley faces to add them to the text. I have to drag them over and delete the writing that comes over with them.

Tripper told me to close out my brouser, but I think I did that and nothing so far. HELP !!!!

PS, funny part is, I can still do that stuff on clubhotrod, it works like always over there.

Don,
What does that stupid Tripper know... er wait... that's me! Anyway, it just occurred to me... I think the "attach" window is a "Pop Up" window. See if u have pop ups blocked!

Bob, I think you have hit it. My Mozilla firefox is blocking something. I returned on Internet Explorer, and all the functions are there. Ok, I just have to dig into Mozilla.

You da man !!!

Firefox

Don,
I use Firefox too. To ck if that is the problem... @ the top click on Firefox... click on Preferences... click on Content. That is where the Pop-up blocker is.
