PC Tuneup software was recommended to fix problem. |

| 8/31/2011 8:43:24 AM | Problem may be Internet Exp0ler 9. Since upgrading to it computer locks up, and gives message almost daily that Internet Explorer has stopped working, and is trying to recover. When listening to audio programs, program may stop before the completion of the 1/2 hour program, and will not restart by pushing the play button. I have to go back and start the whole download from the beginning and then advancing to the stopped point. |
|
| 2/10/2010 9:16:21 AM | This is a new pc I'm installing pc tune up as mmy first software progam. In other works I don't have a clue if it's running slow or locking up. I'll let you know. I just check "no" so that I can cleck "nexT" |
