All is well that ends in pizza.

What version of IE? And are you using XP or another operating system?

7 - I think - the one that has tabs.

Maybe upgrade to Internet Explorer 7 optimized for Google...

Or

Try some of the things microsoft suggests [link]

You could uninstall and reinstall IE7.

Okay, I downloaded the Google IE and it's let me in - but only with the HTML version. And then I tried to go to the next page and I'm waiting to see if it's going to load.

Okay, I got in! And in the regular interface not in html mode.

Thank you!

But - it's basically like the old ie -- no tabs. (Which is okay -- it's nice to be able to read my gmail at home!)

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

My SMS problem was actually a GPRS problem which has been resolved. The perils of not buying your phone from your service provider, I suppose. Now I've just got the same Web browser difficulties that everyone seems to have so I am likely Opera bound.

I'm all excited about the Bluetoothiness, that's how behind the times I am.

Thrive to spite them

I have an Excel question.

I'm making a spreadsheet using hyperlinks to other files on my computer I started the spreadsheet a few days ago but when I came back today to add more info and none of the links worked. I got an error message saying "Cannot Open Specified File". This is Excel 2002.

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

Did you move the excel file on your computer? When you saved it originally (or when you reopened it), did it add stuff to the URLs as if they pointed to a server instead of local files? (Like 'HTTP://', which shouldn't be there if the links point to local files.)
