I doubt that anyone will be able to make any sense of any of your questions. 
While one can easily throw stones at IE, I don't see how IE can possibly " interfere 
with {you} futzing around on this darn machine." And as far as spelling your name 
right, the computer only does what it's told. It does not arbitrarily spell your 
name ever. Perhps you yourself misspelled it when you setup your account.

You really need to provide a bit more information, Jeannemarie. What exactly do you mean when you say that IE cannot spell your name correctly?

(I'm not doubting that you have a real problem; after all, my Word spell checker reports "job" as a misspelling... maybe MS thinks your name ought to be Jeanne Marie, and you know, whatever MS decrees, that's how the world has to be...
