    Well that's why newbies shouldn't get Macs. It's obviously hard to adjust to, and that's now how it should be.

    My best advice to you is to download Parallels, and put Windows Vista on it. It should work finely for the most part. I would simply use the Mac hardware to run it on, and keep Windows on top of OS X. OS X is just simply the base OS that you shouldn't have to bother with.

    Or better yet, just simply start over. Return the Macbook, and buy a high-end/mid-range PC for less, with Windows, anti-virus program, and high-speed internet. That's really all you need to have a very good performing computer.

    I use a Sony Vaio, with Windows Vista, Live OneCare, high-speed AT&T internet, and everything is just plain bliss on my side. No problems at all. I don't use my Macbook Pro often, and I have no problems with using a very good PC.

    Plus, I go to college, and everybody admires my sexy designed Sony Vaio. It even had some Macbook owners looking at mines. It's really that good. Life here is plain wonderful.

    Download Firefox!!

    I have 2 macs and i have not had that problem like you mentioned. I am guessing that you are using Safari. It shouldn't do that and it might be a fault of the site but more than likley its something else. It could just be a bug in Safari itself.

    Try reloading the page(s). Like sYar said, try it with FF or another browser.

    Which sites are you getting this from? E-mail me the links and I'll see if they are the same with my Mac.
