Hello all,

I'm not sure what happened to my computer lately, but things aren't working
as smooth as they were a week ago. I'm running XP Home and Internet Explorer
6.0. I also had an issue during this same time with Outlook not remembering
my passwords. Someone helped me with that issue, but I still have a couple
more things that aren't working.

One issue is I'm not able to view mpeg files (or any movie clip files). I'll
click to open a mpeg, but nothing will happen. It's almost like I didn't
even click on the file.

Another issue is when I go to log into sites (that need a password) IE won't
recognize my password. I'll enter my user name and password and the same
pop-up remains asking me for my user name and password again. I can't seem
to get passed this.

Any clue what I can do to fix one, or both of these problems that started
out of no where???

Thanks in advance for any help...
