Advice/Help Please for a relative beginner
Hello,
I`m extremely limited in my knowledge of PC`s, and need some help with one particular thing.
Whenever I try and open files I receive, mainly jpegs, the file icon is the windows icon. When trying to open, I get a grey pop-up box asking , which programme i want to use to open the file. Non do the job.
Another example - I tried to download emule+ via Softpedia. I clicked on the Rumanian box. The download didn`t happen, and was told I needed a mirror buffer?, so tried to download Iphant. Again I got a Windows icon and was unable to open it and proceed.
Does this make sense to anyone.
Thanks in anticipation.
