on computers, when you start typing stuff into boxes, like the google search box, you can have the option to save the stuff and have it available in a drop down menu.

similarly when enering you e-mail addresses in places, you can just type the 1st letter and choose from a choice or two. somehow this 'puter doesn't do that.

am running XP. how do i turn that on?

Oh Brother.... I Said what the heck are you up to in here, he says that it must have come from a trojan virus, he never typed that in....
