I've looked at this site for the first time just now,
hoping to find out more about the same problem that you
are having! I'll post mine as well and maybe then someone
will take pity on our plight and help us out!!! If you do
find a solution elsewhere other than enlisting another
friend's ciomputer, please let me know!
