No worries. You haven't confused me I just don't know much so I keep asking questions as terms or whatever come up when I don't know what they are or mean. I appreciate your help.

You mentioned something about images being blurry when you use your internet service. This is probably your ISP (Juno) compressing (making smaller in file size) the images so they download to your computer faster. This is common with dial-up service as pages with a lot of images can take a long time to load.

Yes, I think that is what the "Juno Speedband" does. The images aren't really blurry, it just looks like their resolution has been compromised in order to speed up the download. Like I said I can change this, but it leads me to wonder what the purpose of even having speedband would be. I originally upgraded my service to get it because I thought everything would download faster and it does, it's just that I have to click that "show original image" then wait for it to redownload, so I'm wondering what the advantage is now? Doesn't seem to be one .

As for configuring your firewall: Im not too familiar with Macafee firewall but the link below might help.

Also, if your firewall came with a user manual, it might have a walkthrough on how to configure it.


Yes, I'm sure that link will help, thanks. Unfortunately no manual, that's what I get for "borrowing" the program from a friend.

PS...you missed one, what's a router?
