okay. i'm trying to play "ice age 2" haha. but it wont let me click "play" on bitlord..even if i right click and try to open it. before it automatically when it was done downloading saw it as a avi, etc. but now it just views the file a torrent.

 

i'm either missing a step inbetween, or missing a program. i dont know

i know i gave you alot of stuff to install, but it's worth it. get rid of norton or any bullshit you have like that and use what is listed here. i promise that computer will fly and you'll be safe. don't forget to update spybot and spyware blaster.

My advice is simple: Boycott IE. It's a cancer on the Web that must be stopped. IE isn't secure and isn't standards-compliant, which makes it unworkable both for end users and Web content creators. Because of their user bases, however, Web developers are hamstrung into developing for IE at the expense of established standards that work well in all other browsers. You can turn the tide by demanding more from Microsoft and by using a better alternative Web browser. I recommend and use Mozilla Firefox, but Apple Safari (Macintosh only) and Opera 8 are both

worth considering as well.
