(V): i'm on the xp laptop now, and i went to start and then to my computer and i checked everything there, and i do have auto updates clicked and i clicked something in that same section that said i had xp3. i also found it on my vista laptop. i really appreciate all this help and info., i'm so proud of myself that i found it, and now i know a little bit more on how to look for things. i'm not puter savvy at all.
ty so much.
