    2. how the fuck do i get an apostrifie instead of this stupid character ééééééé thatès supposed to be an apostriphie. also the backslash shows as ÉÉÉÉÉ WHAT THE FUCK I canèt even get a question mark, all i get is this ÉÉÉÉÉÉÉÉ

                  What system are you using? If you are on OS X you should be using Safari instead of IE, it sucks...

                          Sleazy,

                          in IE set your site as a home page then check the box marked with red here, quit then restart IE.
                          <img src="http://www.dreamdesigns4u.com/sleazyIE.jpg">

                          Glad to hear your mouse is working... or you should pick your fave keyboard layout in the system.

                          Good luck

                                          Do yourself a favor and stop using Internet Explorer is the first thing you should do. Use Safari or Firebird. As far as the ' it works fine on mine just by typing it, so mayb what you need to do is fix your keyboard settings.

                                          Your keyboard settings and home page settings can be adjusted in your system prefs. so go click the apple in the top left corner and scroll to system prefs then select Internet for your home page settings to fix and Keyboard & Mouse to fix your keyboard.

                                                          When you change the home page, and click the "ok" icon, "quit" IE. then when you open IE again, your home page should be set the one that you changed it to.

                                                          As for the wierd characters, this happened to me when I was fucking around with the "languages" and shit...i believe this is how I fixed it although it was a while ago...lol.

                                                          Go to "System Preferences", click the "international" icon (should be on the top row) and then select "input menu". From there, make sure that the icons for "character pallette" and "keyboard viewer" are checked off.
                                                          On the "menu" where it has "Language", Formats, "Input Menu" select "formats" and make sure your region code is set to "united states".

                                                          That should do it...hopefully.
                                                          =)

                                                              Well, do you think Microsoft is going to make a decent browser for macs?

                                                              Safari is great, way better then IE.

                                                              I have heard good things about other ones too... the keyboard might be set on another language or something odd, check it in the system.

                                                              System Prefs and then International and Mouse and keyboards.

                                                                                                                              i set it to USA and it all works fine

                                                                                                                              thanks for the help - that seemed to fix the problem

                                                                                                                              You were probably using Canada - Multilingual, you need to use the USA layout to loose the accents

I sometimes have 18 windows open at a time during normal work/surfing it would get annoying to load up the home page each time (and as my homepage is gfy i'd never get anything done.)

I sometimes have 18 windows open at a time during normal work/surfing it would get annoying to load up the home page each time (and as my homepage is gfy i'd never get anything done.)
