PC Trouble
1 Answers
Having trouble logging into Hotmail, Facebook, anything that requires a Username and Password.
I have tried reducing the security settings and doing several windows updates but no luck.
My PC was causing trouble, so I did a system restore. Everything now works except for this problem.
Any help is much appreciated.
