I'm pretty much sure that you're trying to opent the site with IE7. -Your computer may be infected with viruses, spywares etc. Which may have edited informations in your Registry. The easiest way to remove those troublemakers is to use some of the many free and "easy to use" cleaning software available on the internet.

Some of the best are "Avast Antivirus" or "NOD32" (these are antiviruses) and "Ad-Aware" or "Spybot SND" (anti-spyware applications). Anyway, try switching to Mozilla Firefox, if it works, stay on it:www.firefoxdownload. ComIf doesn't help, then the problem lies in the Vista operative system.

Try updating it. Sources: My recommendation.

I use Firefox and Internet Explorer and find that things will load with one or the other. So I use both... It is also possible that the trouble is with your friends site. Now, I have 2 excellent recommendations for you:1.

This book is a must for all new Vista users. I swear by it, it is my Vista bible. Especially useful is the section called "Where'd It Go?

". This section tells you about all the new ways Vista does the old things you used to do in XP. I could kind of hear in your voice, you miss XP right?

Well, hang in there with Vista, it is great and you will find things getting smoother and smoother.2. The Vista Forums is a great place to hang out and find out about the latest:http://www.amazon.com/Windows-Vista-Missing-David-Pogue/dp/0596528272/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/104-8452868-6261530?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1187790135&sr=8-1It is free to register, and I have downloaded a Widget from the forum to check what the hot topics are for the day. The forum shows who is on a particular topic and if you ever see the name Librarian50 listed, that's me.

I just read, I never post. I love Vista, hope the book and forum help you out,Librarian50 Sources: http://www.amazon.com/Windows-Vista-Missing-David-Pogue/dp/0596528272/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/104-8452868-6261530?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1187790135&sr=8-1 .

Some websites have problems with Internet Explorer 7. Did you have IE6 or 7 when you ran XP? Vista changes a lot of things and you didn't give specifics of the site or your PC.

Your best route would be to ask your friend how he handles Vista and IE7. Also check some computer forums with Vista users (or web designers) and ask there. Sources: tomshardware.com/forum/forum-44.html .

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
