We have tried everything… Ok here is the story, Michaels sister used the computer to go on the internet at our house. she used internet explorer instead of fire fox. so now we get 3456797644235 pop-ups and the computer runs REALLY SLOW. and I can’t get to the task manager to close down whatever she left open,downloaded, or whatever! And it really pisses me off! ---
