After I post on the forum a few times my computer locks up and I have to shut it down. Am I the only one having this problem? Any suggestions on why this is happening to me? Keep it simple since I am not a computer wiz..

I'm not having that problem on either my work or home computers. My guess would be that you have some spyware on your computer causing problems. When we have problems with the employee work computers that's usually what it is.
When you visit some websites, they put tracking cookies and other junk on your computer that end up causing conflicts in your programs. These aren't usually malicious like viruses or trojan horses, but they can cause problems.
I would start with downloading this and running it on your computer. http://www.spybot.info/en/download/index.html This software has a free version and our tech guy always has us run this when we are having problems.

Im not having a problem here, but I am on the other board. It won't let me back on, I was told it was cause I was inactive to long, but I had posted not even a wk. before. I wonder if that is the problem there.

I use Spybot too every once in a while... takes a freaking long time to go through all my stuff... I think you have to download the deal first......
