Hi there, sorry for the delay. Java is downloaded and installed. What can I do to update my Shockwave Flash, as it likes to crash all the time? And what is next on the list?
Thank you, you are awesome.

Thank you. I will get on this in a few. It has snowed here in Colorado, and my car was side swiped by a porta potty truck this morning, and the whole drivers side of my car is toast, from back bumper to front bumper. Thank god it was parked in front of the house, and me and family were not in it.
Thank you once again. You are awesome.

Wow!! Thank goodness you and your family weren't in the car.

Good morning. I had an issue with my pc when booting it up. It would not boot up and load, so it restored itself to a previous restore point, and now my antivirus is not working, I can't get it to turn on. Its kind of looking like we might have to start over. Is there a way to find out what restore point it took itself back to, then I would know what I have to redo.
Thank you
P.S. The insurance company said they are probably going to total my car, so I get a new used one. Fun

"new used", now there's an oxymoron.

If you go to Safe Mode and then to System Restore and look at the restore points, it should give the date and time of restore points previous to the current restore. That should give you some indication.

Can't you just reinstall your AV?
