I need a little help TW. My Sister just got Broadband for school and i am being swamped by the calls. they never really used the computer for anything other than Spider solitaire til now. Pathetic i know.
I have to go over there to "fix" this comp today and i have no clue. i still run Win98 so i have never dealt with XP. What are the basic steps i need to take to disable the messenger popups and such?
i will be adding a firewall and spyware programs, but what else should i enable/disable just so i dont get anymore calls?
My sister is going for her RN cert and thats why the broadband. Mom uses it for Solitaire and only for that. Nephew (9) plays little bullshit games on it.
Edit: yeah i know 'hahha you use 98" well from what i have seen XP is slow as shit. my p3 500 runs 3 times faster than their p4 1.8
