ReplyDeleteWell, I have two laptops, one desktop and it does not work on any of them. I have the internet Explorer 9. on your Instruction sheet it is stated for versions earlier than 9. At first I was trying the remote desktop, but I know it only works when I am in the building. I thought about un-installing my version of IE, that did not work out to well. Would it possibly be the search engine I am using. Have tried Bing, MSN, Google,and Yahoo. Can someone PLEASE help direct me in the right direction other then being told I am not following the instructions on the sheet. Sincerely wigged out. GL.
ReplyDeleteHmmm, I thought to click on that highlighted link up above and guess what? It works. So in order to get to the Dorsey site I literally have to come to the homepage to get in. How Ironic! TTFN
