YOU CAN NOT BELEIVE HOW MANY TIMES THIS CMPTR SHUTSDOWN/LOCKSUP/TIMES OUT

I just finished typing a nice description to place an item for sale on an auction site!  I had missed filling out a section asking for condtion: new, used, etc., so I had to hit my back button and guess what  screen came up said TIMED OUT...this P-O-S does this all the time!  It's obvious I am no wizard at this but how do I stop this the TIME OUT CRAP...

Help, if I am reading your post correctly, it probably is not HP's problem.  It sounds to me like you are logged into a secure website and when you attempt to change screens, it is not allowing it by giving you a "Timed Out" message.  This is done to protect your security on the website.  If I have read the problem incorrectly, please let me know.

Most databases on sistes such as online auction houses actually do this as a security measure.  There should be a option on the given site for editing posts made... use that instead of the back button.  The back button breaks a lot of forms.

Caveat: I will try to help... I don't know everything...but I try my hardest!!!

Please give kudos if I helped, and mark it as solved if I fixed you...or your problem...:smileyvery-happy:
