1. I'm in -- I used foodtv.com.
I know they have a few addresses; maybe one of them's having problems?

3. If you use Firefox,
they just did an upgrade yesterday that added a Food Network Tab to its browser. I'm in and out all day - no problems.

4. This is too weird.
I use Firefox, I've had the FN tab for some time, I've got FN in the search function, and I've cleared the cache and rebooted. I've tried IE. No luck any way I try.

No problems getting into any other site.

Going to run spyware/adware tools.

5. Ewwwww
What a drag.

Ad-Aware, Spybot, Spyware Blaster are our weapons of choice.

Sometimes, though - I wake up screaming when I think of this - you just have to turn the damn machine off and walk away.

I have no idea where to go and what to do after that, though.

Good luck..............

6. Yup. Just ran all of those, plus HijackThis
Which is what I always run if I suspect a browser hijack.

But for now, your last option is the one I'm going to take. G'night.

Perhaps things will be clearer in the A.M. :)

7. Well, it works this morning.
Go figure.

Some things just go poof...and then they come back again.

8. I've never had any trouble with it, though sometimes doing a "search"
Edited on Tue May-09-06 10:59 AM by Rhiannon12866
can be extremely slow.:eyes:

I just searched for a good recipe his morning. Does anybody here have a recipe for enchiladas? I've never made them, myself, before, so admit to using a kit from a box.:blush: However, I gussied them up quite a bit, using extra of everything, plus lots it didn't call for, topped them with extra sauce and cheese, sour cream, chopped lettuce, tomatoes, scallions and sliced black olives. I served them with refried beans topped with more cheese and some Spanish rice, though I also used a mix for that.:shrug:

I'm happy to say that they were a big hit and I'm going to try them again, though using the appropriate corn tortillas (the kit contained flour :-( ), and ground chicken, since I spotted this yesterday at the grocery store. There are lots of recipes using poached and shredded chicken breasts, and I can probably just adjust any recipe, but I wish that I could find a recipe that started with this, so I can get the seasonings just right. It makes sense to me to take short cuts, when they're available, and I'm always in a hurry.:D

Does anybody else use ground chicken?:shrug:
