    Gurus at IDO, got a question and a favor to ask. I’ve been trying to recover my account via a new temporary password and after the 4th try it worked, YEA!!! Got a favor to ask because I got a long line of upper and lower case letters and different symbols and to log in you had to get them right. Well,,,Wouldn’t it be simpler to give a series of 1’s and 0’s to type in, it would be a whole lot easier for guys like me. After 3 tries it was getting pretty frustrating and was about to give up and sign off. I’m not slamming anyone but how many other are having a hard time deceifering what those symbols mean. Anyway I finially got mine done after the 4th try, anyway to simplify things because it seems a person has to be more keyboard savy the way its setup now, then 1’s and 0’s of numbers and the alphabet.

    BK definitely needs an intervention or 12 step program or something…

    Brain your talking to a guy whos functionally illiterate when it comes to pc’s. Copy and paste goes way over my head. If someone was to show me how then it would be a whole lot easier and I could probably get that. Anyway thanks to both James and Brian and I did finally get a sequence of symbols that I could type in accurately, All the hard work is done.

    I know I always have a hard time getting the paste cleaned off the screen.
    FW is not amused either.

    Can you still buy whiteout? Can you even say “whiteout”? I thought the PC police had banned that word.

    Of course you can still buy it. Just only sold in the “hood”.
