I did spybot the other day and got rid of a million things but it didn't help. I have no idea how to see if my phones and modem are filtered =( Another thing you might want to know, why I might not be able to downlaod and do a bunch of stuff is that I cant even search in Yahoo; once I input something to search and press enter the "Page cant be found" page comes out, FOR EVERY SEARCH ENGINE, and for google the web page doesnt even come out, this has been happening for about 4 months already. It wasn't always like that.
