Kuped: I thought the process you were correcting me on was called ‘refresh’ as opposed to ‘reload’, which is what it says-- a complete reload and install of the app. while refresh is shutting down the computer or windows and restarting. Am I right? Wrong?
Answer to your questions: Surprisingly, this only happens within the Outlook Express app and a meta-search engine called ixquick. Neither app seems to respond to clicking on the link.
If this only happened within one app., I would be more willing to uninstall and reload said program. But it doesn’t, leading me to believe my parents somehow disabled, or enabled, a feature I don’t know about.
Chris: You refresh a webpage, you reload a webpage. You restart/reboot your computer. You install a program to get it on your computer, and you uninstall a program to get it off your computer. That’s the usage I’ve seen as long as I’ve been using computers.
Once the problem pops up, and you go to a different page, does the problem continue?
This is most likely not a feature your parents enabled/disabled. Programs just aren’t perfect.
And just to make sure, did you try closing the program when the problem was occurring, and checking to see if the process was still running?
