Right now,I only have access to an old laptop a friend is letting me use that runs Windows 7. It is too broken to change OS. I finally did find a way to get things to work. The Firefox ESR 32bit still allows Java. Mozilla is going to drop this ESR If you install Java 7, it has the medium security option still. So it works. Really lousy internet connection here. I really pointed this out to the owner and he says he is going to call the company. I still can't get the server to connect over the network itself. I did manage to finally install base plus the bsd's. I'm going to start a new thread about this problem. Chris Bennett
