        It doesn't need to connect no. It should have a default Windows driver that'll give wireless. So I'd suggest you need to add a new wireless network

            eureka it's working again. It must be magic or voodoo because it defeats any logic that I know!

            Thank you for all you help.

                  Me too, tech. When littlun somehow managed to lock up her laptop with some malware that took over the whole pc and loaded a fake "police are watching you" page, malwarebytes was my saviour! Without that, the pc just wouldn't work!

                  She was convinced she'd done something wrong, bless her. I wonder how many people pay "the fine" that the "police" page loaded in order to fix and use their machine?
                  If happy little bluebirds fly, beyond the rainbow, why, oh why can't I?

                    Remember that one a while back ago, I too used it to clear the mentioned above as Spybot and the others proved useless.

                      anyone know of add on for firefox, to unblock international connnections? or hiding your Proxy and IP so they don't know which country your connecting from?

                      heard about 'Hola', but can't find as an add-on from firefox.
