Well, I got my computer back today and it works wonderfully. The problem was, I downloaded Internet Explorer 8 and it had sooooooo many buttons I didn't need or use. I tried to get rid of the buttons to no avail, so I "uninstalled" IE 8. When I had installed it, it had uninstalled IE 7, so I had no way to get online. I underestand from other sources that IE 8 has caused problems on other people's computers, so if I were you, I wouldn't download or install it.
Don't wait too long to tell someone you love them.
