Welcome to Absolute Beginners Computer!

If you are a new member who has posts here in this forum which are
relevant to the group (meaning not spam) and you still find yourself as
being "moderated" and shouldn't be - please put a post under mine. We
will override your moderated status so you can post directly to the
group without waiting for one of the owners to approve your post.

We appreciate everybody understanding that we do this moderated status
to keep our forum clear of spam posts. :-)


Thanks!

Hi Lisa,

I may be moderated because I posted a question about 1/2 hour ago and
it has not posted yet. Thanks

vid & RS - I have taken you off of moderation status. You should be
able to post directly to the group now.

I did not know I was still being moderated, so I have inadvertently
double and triple posted.

I don't know why it was still moderating you - I have your membership set to allow you to post without moderation.  Strange.  LOL.  If trouble continues, please let us know.

I will keep that in mind to avoid multiple posting until some time goes
by .

Thanks

I wish someone would answer my computer question, or point me to a
link.

just in case you miss it - I took you off moderated :o)
 
Anyone else out there still being moderated?   Just drop us a line :o)
 
(note:  All new members are moderated only to keep the spammers out.  We just sometimes forget to take people off....so it's nothing personal)  :oD

Thank you for trying to help but my screen does not hve a delete
button - neither top nor bottom. My next-door-neigbour has Google
mail and he has checked: he says that I have a different screne. Is
my problem, and also the attachment one, due to the fact that I cannot
load "standard view" and am stuck with HTML as per. my earlier mail
??? Please keep trying, Tony.

Anthony, I believe you are probably correct-- this issue goes with the
same thing you had questions about in another topic. Let's move this
over there-- I use firefox at home, IE at work. Let me try a few things
there and see if I can help figure out your issues....

Firefox has solved my problem and I can now access Standard View as well as HTML using broad-band.  However, I still have a problem with attachments to e-mails.  The attachments are received but cannot be opened - I have sent to three different friends  all using different  ISPs.  The attachments are documents written on MSWord and retrieved from My Documents.  I do not have this problem using Outlook Express with IE6 as the server on a dial-up connection.  Grateful or any suggestions.  Tony
