Other - Computers - June 2007

I wish to reformat my hard drive and reinstall Windows XP. I bought my computer from DELL. From my understanding, it didn't come with a reinstall CD, and that I can reinstall without a CD. How can I do that?

Mycomputer starts up with a menu that says start windows normally, reboot, start with last known good configuration, etc. No matter which I pick it shows the Compaq screen, then windows xp home edition, (what appears to be...) a blue screen, and then back to the first menu. Is there anyway to log on?

I am having a rather unique problem...

I am able to go to any website that I want to with my computer, as long as it is connected to the internet.

Any website, that is, *except* for this one...I won't put the address here, because I don't want them yelling at me about bandwidth. But this is the address format:

http://xxxxxxxxxx2.xxxxxxxxx.net/x/xxx3.html

I have asked friends if they are able to go to this site on their computer, and they are able to.

I am not able to. I try, and all I get is the 'Page Cannot Be Displayed' message, cannot find server, blah blah.

I have also tried typing in 'www' in the appropriate place (after 'http://'), but that doesn't work either.

I have tried emptying temp internet files, refreshing, rebooting, etc. I am still unable to access this website.

Does anyone know what might be causing this, and/or how to fix it?

I really need the best VoIP service possible. From my research, I 've narrowed it down to Vonage or Skype. I thought about Qwest but, they seemed expensive. I will be moving to Podunk, Alabama (lol..not really the town's name) where we can't even get dsl.
Also, is there a VoIP that allows you to be on the phone AND the internet at the same time? Any help or guidance is much appreciated!!

I work in IT for a living and grew up on computers and gaming.

I am looking for a related hobby (please note I am quite knowledgeable in the field) that can keep me occupied when I get home from work.

Any suggestions?

I hear of this program named PuTTY, I research it, but all the descriptions of it are over my head. SSH? Telnet? Tunnels? I don't get ANY OF IT. Anyone, please describe it all in laymans terms. Don't direct me to sites like google or wikipedia either (been there, done that). Thanks!
