my home page no longer comes up.. it keeps telling me click here to manage .disable add on's well i tried to figure out how to do this and i get losted.
it also cuzed me to where i can no longer go into chat on the planet .. and when i try re downloading java it wont let me... i dont know im really frustrated.
this is a dell and has been a good running lap top for me for a long time.
i cant really afford a new one at this time .. sooo

Hi there,
It's unlikely that you need a new laptop. I would suggest, however, that you probably need a very solid system check. This can be done by the likes of the Geek Squad at Best Buy or even a local computer store (likely to be cheaper than the Geek Squad).
The other option to do is to reformat it back to factory default (Dell's usually have a recovery section on the hard drive). This is another alternative but you should ensure that all critical data is backed up and you keep necessary info for applications (e.g., license codes) somewhere safe so you can restore those applications.
