It seems that Windows XP users in general are having the exact same issue. After discussing it with the telephone tech support for Poetry.com (they insist that it is your ISP) and checking multiple computers, connections, and operating systems it appears to have something to do with Win XP. I have tried IE 6 and Netscape 7 and had the same results. So this leads me to believe it has to do with a common program. If not Win XP then I can't say. I will be checking with Microsoft online support next week and will post my results here.

I have had my new computer for about 7 months. I got it because I write poetry. I post my poems on poetry.com and when I click on my poem to edit it, it takes me to a different address. I have tried everything. Does anyone have any suggestions? Also..I don't like xp and would like to find out if it is possible to go to 98, which I liked very much. Can I change to it or will it harm my computer?
