You have typed your entire post in capital lettering.
Why would you do this?
If there is something you wish to emphasize - please - feel free - but
emphasizing an entire post is like speaking in a louder voice - for a whole
bunch of time. It can annoy those who frequent this newsgroup and would be
most likely to answer your query - although you chose not to really ask
anything - only make statements. It seems to many that you are screaming at
them and to those who do not come from that school of thought - it may just
be that all capital letters are hard to read, as they do not present as
pleasant (to the eye) of a readinf medium. Whatever the reasoning an
individual must have - I have seen no one ever say, "Hey! Why did you post
in all properly cased letters/grammar/punctuation?!"
Just a suggestion.
As for your specific question - I do not believe the "Windows Update"
newsgroup may be the place you wish to go for such a question. Perhaps a
better place would be an Internet Explorer newsgroup. You may get pointed
to needing to scan for spyware/adware as well. Someone might even suggest
uninstalling Internet Explorer 7. Someone is bound to ask why you state you
are unable to change your Internet Explorer 7 homepage, then mention the MSN
browser and then back to Internet Explorer 7.... So you may want to give as
many details as you can in a new post.
