Every time I try to open a link someone has posted, my computer locks up. I can go through the threads no problem, I just can't open any links. This just started today, and I haven't changed any settings on my computer or downloaded anything new. What up?

is anything else running in the background that's eating up mem. usage?

alot of the links posted recently have been video files . if youre on dialup it will take forever and a day to open. try rightclicking on the link and save it to a file . or right click and open it in a new window .

If you have a popup blocker that may be the issue.
Hold down the "ctrl" key when you click on the link. That works for me.

Try this:
Go into Find.
Then: Files or Folders
Type: msconfig
Click-on : msconfig
click the start-up tab
un-check whatever you don't want at start-up.
This will free a shitload of memory and your 'puter will run alot better.
