Dear Mr. Martell
Thank you for your kind and informative reply... I'm not certain if I have a
virus or not, all I do know, is that I may have locked myself out of some
functions that I can't access as of now, and would like to know at this time,
what functions I can access, or go into, to try, and reset those features...
If you have steps, and or measurements for me to follow, could you list them
for me?..... I would be very happy if you could, so that I can try & make an
attempt to undo, what I have done....
Respectfully:
Standard League
