No that didn't work either :(

Did that, no difference.
Recently I posted this thread about internet issues i.e. I would randomly not be able to access the internet.
I let it sit for a week. That problem has disappeared but a new one has taken its...
And ...
When I restart after opening Facebook there is an app called privacy app that prevents Windows from restarting. Could that app have something to do with it?
Update:
Been trying something over the last two days and got a strange result: internet works perfectly until I open Facebook. I can do everything else without any problems at all for however long...
Also I forgot to mention that I am connected to my router using a wifi dongle. Don't know if that makes a difference. Could the dongle be on the fritz?
Yes for 1 and 2. The third looks rather complicated so I will need to go through it carefully.
When I got home from work today I had internet for about an hour and a half. Then it just stopped and...

Uhm... Post how?

Also, I probably didn't state this beforehand but this laptop wasn't working properly when I got it and there really doesn't seem to be much I can do. She...
Thanks for all the responses guys (and girls?).
Basically she doesn't want anything to change, nor does she want to spend money. All she cares about is her photos and videos on there and her...
Yeah already copied over her files.
Thanks for the responses.
Basically she's old and doesn't like change. Personally I'd do a clean install as everything is outdated (discontinued in some cases) but first I need to check if its...
Hi. My aunt asked me to give her laptop a once over because it wasn't 'working right'. Yeah, no kidding. Its slowed to an absolute crawl. Its been like that for a long time apparently, she just never...
Thanks :)
Very nice. Enjoy dude!!
An update, albeit a late one:
I binned the thing. Some much more wrong with it I decided to donate it to the tip. Thanks for everyone that chipped in :)
