Whenever I click on the link in reposnse to a search on computing.net I see a message saying downloading from itext.vibrantmedia.com etc etc but nothing seems to happen so I do not get to see the answers previously posted on the topic. What do I need to do?

This solution was posted to me a while back by domass. It worked well for me. Follw the instructions carefully.
Jude, If you are having problems because of intelitex you can do a search for your hosts file. It will not have an extension(the . plus the last three letters) It's just named Hosts and thats all. Double click it to open it and it will prompt you to go to the web or use something you already know you want to open it. Pick the latter then open it in notepad. Go down to the last line where it says 127.0.0.1 localhost and click right behind the last letter of localhost. Then hit enter twice so the blinker moves down a couple and type this 127.0.0.1 itxt.vibrantmedia.com
Your machine will not try to download this link again. That should fix your problem with it locking up on it. Make sure there is a space or two between the number 1 and the itxt.
