Hi Donna, I want to confirm something that Laura said: clearing your temporary files, and even your cookies seems to help. Also, if you've been on the internet for a while, it helps to just come back to the main menu and start your internet session again. Sometimes nothing but a reset will help. Then, too, there are some sites that just won't load. Don't forget that a braille note is not a PC, and just doesn't have the power of one.
Hope this helps, Bob > ----- Original Message ----- >From: Laura Wolk <"[EMAIL PROTECTED]"@smtp.enter.net >To: Braillenote List <[EMAIL PROTECTED] >Date: Sun, 7 Dec 2003 00:25:56 -0500 (EST) >Subject: re: [Braillenote] please can you help? >Hi Donna >There is no specific file set for the Cannon laserjet printer.
