when using my PC I sometimes get messages asking me to "check my Browser". What is a "Browser" and where do I find the one I'm supposed to have on my PC so that I can check it? Oh and what are "cookies" and how can I enable or disable them?

A browser is a piece of software used for viewing webpages. Microsoft Windows comes with Internet Explorer, better alternatives include Firefox and Opera (both of which are free from http://www.getfirefox.com/ and http://www.opera.com/ respectively).
A cookie is a small piece of text that a website can ask your browser to remember and then send back each time it visits the site. This is used for such things as identifying who you are after you log in with a username and password. Cookies can be disabled for privacy reasons.
How you disable cookies depends on the browser, but they are enabled by default, so it is unlikely that they are disabled if you don't know how to turn them off. It is possible that a glitch in the website has caused it to think your browser has cookies disabled when, in fact, it hasn't. Switching browsers may resolve the issue.

The browser is the program that you probably used to access this website. Typically Mozilla Firefox or Internet Explorer

cookies can be disabled in your internet browser, which is what you use to access the internet
these browsers (such as firefox, internet explorer, netscape, etc.) can often cause problems when not updated properly

That term is merely asserting that our ancestors got here from Africa, no longer unavoidably the individuals alive at present that are noted as that. I do hate the observe Black(like crayon colour) however, I mean technically, we are brown, and that i've got in no way considered a individual who replaced into easily Black, I merely think of it can be a darker shade of brown. i assume i ought to confirm the place you're coming from however, yet in basic terms a sprint. besides, its been taking place for this long, why substitute it in basic terms to complicate issues. The solutions you get would be in step with individuality, meaning that some human beings like it, and others do no longer. i do no longer understand what to assert relating to the entire remember, I mean as long as this is no longer racial, then i'm cool with it.

your browser is the program you use to get online and if you didn't know how to find it then you would not be able to get online. normally a shortcut to your browser will be on your desktop look for Internet explorer
