shrift, a friend of mine had the problem with the internet going wonky in Win 7. He said something about a setting that used to be default off in older versions, but is default on in Win 7? I didn't pick up a lot of the specifics, as I don't have the OS, but maybe that will help you in your search for an answer?
Hey, if it means I don't have to read any more, woo and, might I add, a big hoo.

Can anyone tell me how secure the iPhone/edge network is? I forgot to make a transfer to my debit card. I can go to an ATM, but it's a pain

You are going to do this by phone or through the web?
Do the web and have https in the browser.

Sorry should have been clearer. I'm on the iPhone and need to make a transfer using the bank's website. I'm concerned about the security of the edge network with the iPhone

Hmm. Maybe? Thanks for the tip. I need to do some more research. And woman up and call tech support when I get back from Michigan.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
wish I could turn the display into a big speedometer
From the map display, touch the area showing your speed and it will take you to a new screen with a bigger speed display, plus the trip odometer.
It also showed me the speed limits...turn the numbers red when you break the speed limit
Mine doesn't do that! ::scurries off to check for updates::

I... may have got my wireless working again. For now, at least! There was a service set to manual when it should have been automatic.
ETA: Spoke too soon.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
