Right now when I push it down it will stay down but it will not type zeros until it was down further more. I can get it back up, only if I grab it from the sides. But it doesn't unjam it. So how can I unjam the zero button without paying for something?

I am using a MacBook with OS 10.4.10

Using DHCP, my IP address and DNS Servers seem to be okay...

I can access every other site I've come across except for http://www.google.com/

Google related sites that I can access: mail.google.com; images.google.com; video.google.com; (generally sites that have .google.com, yet anything google.com/ doesn't load.

I get a network timeout error. I've tried using Camino, Safari, and Firefox... same thing.

What's wrong and what can I do? I'm not very tech-savvy.

Please help, if you can.

I've never run into a problem like this before and everyone I've talked to has no clue what the heck is going on. Whenever I try to watch ANY video media on my computer OTHER THAN flash, (like what is found on sites like youtube.com), my computer slows down to a snail's pace, the screen turns completely black for a slow second, flashes back to "normal" and everything remains painfully slow until the computer basically needs to be emergency rebooted.

This means that I cannot watch dvds, windows media files, anything at all, (other than the stuff on youtube, of course, and other flash format videos), or edit home-made video clips, of course, without a repeat of what I've mentioned.

I should mention, also, that we just had a new hard-drive installed and we hoped that the old system had something to do with what was was happening. No such luck. We had the same problem with viewing videos/dvds before the new hard drive AND now, after.

Thank you!

Okay here we go.
I was recently given a computer (desktop) for my daughter. It seems to be pretty nice. It has XP pro on it, and seems to run quicker than my newer one. But there is no place to hook up DSL in the back. There are 2 places for a regular phone line and that is it. I have DSL in my front room for my computer. What do I need to get her on the net? And it needs to be as cheap as it can be, I'm a fulltime student and single mother, so I am broke! I was wanting to know if it would work by putting an ethernet card in her computer and just hooking up another DSL modem (which I have) in her room connected to her computer? Someone please help me. She is a great kid and I promised I would figure this out for her. Thank you in advance for any help!

My computer was acting up so I tried to do a system restore, but when it was restarting, it never fully started up. It just went to a black screen. So I started my comptuer in safe mode and used Mcafee Virusscan and it removed 9 viruses so I tried to restart my computer and it wouldn't get past the Windows XP screen with the green bars running through, and I've tried system restore a bunch of times and starting it in safe mode, normally, and all the other choices they give when I press f8, but it still won't go past a black screen or the windows XP loading page. Help! I don't know what I did and how to fix it.

I have had Hughesnet satellite internet for about eight months. My browsing experience is rather good. Downloading small files, such as music, is a breeze. But when I try to download files over 60 megabytes, my connection slows majorly down. The download stops and my internet is too slow to use, or doesn't work at all for 1-2 days.

And if it helps, the same problem occurs when I try to download with Xbox Live.

Any suggestions. Please keep in mind that I'm not an expert on anything dealing with the internet.

Thank you so much.
