tech question

Thanks Olly, Steve and bdclark0423.

Please don't take offense, but I didn't understand a word you said.
And what's worse, I had painful flashbacks of standing in a garage
trying to explain what was wrong with my car by making "ta-pok-ata"
noises while several mechanics exchanged amused glances.

But OK, on the kids' computer we use firefox  to get on-line. I've
always used explorer on mine. Is that software? It might be helpful to
add that the kids' computer was recently rebuilt by the high school
computer class. While there are several things it doesn't do at all,
before being rebuilt it did nothing.

It is very fast at what it does, and the screen is much easier to
read. I suspect I will just have to remember where I left off, rather
than skimming for the blue subject lines. Or could it be as simple as
using explorer? (Only, how would I get it?) Then again, maybe I should
go back to my trusty, comfortable contraption.
