I am trying to find the e-mail address of a hotel in London, and wondered if there is a free download programme that will allow me to do this. I do not need private addresses, just businss. If there is anyone out there than can help, I'd be really pleased. Thanks

I bought a used Alienware desktop pc almost a year ago. i didnt really need a desktop but it was so cheap that i bought it. Anyways when i go into the System Properties it says Intel Pentium D HT processor and it shows the speed of the processor as 3.79 but says it twice. Does that mean that my computer has two processors? I have a copy of the original order form and it said it has two processors but i think i only see one processor inside the case.

Okay so I play World of Warcraft and used to have a faster comp but something made that comp crash and I am now stuck with my computer I bought in 2004. It is an Emachine and has 64mb Ram. Well I was told the game takes atleast 512 mb Ram to run it properly. I can load it up and play on this computer but it is soooo slow. It takes me about 10 minutes to move my charactor 5 feet. So what do you recommend? I was thinking of getting a whole new computer but then thought it would be cheaper to buy whatever I need to make the game and the comp run faster. Please Help. Thank you

Hi, I am using windows vista microsoft word, the first time I save a file, I am able to see this box popping out so I can click where I want to "save as", however, if I want to change where I want to save it to, I can't. Because when I save again, the box for the "save as" doesn't come out again. Can someone please tell me how to get that "save as" box to come out?

Whenever I start the Yahoo! browser, Microsoft attempts to 'configure' something called "Photo Gallery" and everything grinds to a complete halt!

Each time, I must click on 'Cancel' several times as it continually attempts to install/configure this software piece.

I can't find it anywhere, even in the registry, to get rid of it.

Help!!!!!!!
