I need to be able to use Microsoft word for some math work I have but I can't figure out how to make it so I can add exponents to it. Hope someone can help. Thanks in advance!

Also any other mathmatic sympols I might use. I am guessing they would be in the same place.

switches to uk.yahoo.com... and no matter what I do, the system doesn't allow me to switch back to www.yahoo.com or any other webpage. For that matter, I cannot go to any webpage. This only happens under my company profile, and not my local profile. What is going on here? Someone is telling me that perhaps my computer has been hijacked! Not sure what the fix is...please advise.

I have a:
Dell DHM
Pentium 4
1.6 GHZ
256 MB ram
XP home edition
ATI All-In Wonder (I believe 7600 model)
DVD Burner
CD Burner
111G HD
40 G HD
I don't play a lot of games, but I would like to play games like Myst and Riven (already played these though, so newer games like this) and although I have an ATI All-In_wonder TV tuner and this works well, my video card will not support some games. I have done some external mods to my PC and plan on doing more, but I want to know how far can i expand this PC? i.e. Video card (keep in mind I don't want to lose TV tuning capability)? Also my RAM? 256MB blows. If I run more than a couple apps, I'm creeping along. Any other hardware I should get? I would like to spend $500 to $1500 on upgrades. Is this possible?

Since August, my laptop has been picking up a virus everytime I insert the wireless broadband card. This is my first time encountering this and wonder if there could be a problem with the card or if there is some kind of latent virus on the laptop that is "provoked" when the card is inserted. The laptop works fine without the card.
