    :D
    Whenever I used to right-click on the task bar on the bottom tray and click on Task manager, I used to get a complete Window with FILE>VIEW>OPTIONS>PERFORMANCE>NETWORK,etc., and now all I see is a window that says Task Manager and that's all. How do I get back the original window again?

    another issue with xp. Which Firewall is best to use...AOL SECURITY AND SAFETY CENTER using AOL's Firewall, or Windows XP's Firewalls. My buddy has verizon DSL with AOL and it's so slow,I'm thinking a Virus. He does run Lavasoft's AVG, I was going to try a MSCONFIG and try to make it run faster,but DSL should be on all the time,,it took almost six minutes for the AOL log on screen to apppear. Thx

    maybe he should dump aol and get MSN as a ISP.

    Double click anywhere on the border of the Task manager and it will toggle back to the full footprint.

    Best to post your firewall question in the General Security forum.
