[QUOTE="!marco, post: 1329156, member: 224543"] Hi, I've been having problems with Safari: when i try to go to a website it keeps coming up with "Safari cannot find server". I downloaded firefox which performs a little bit better but also comes up with the "cannot find server" page. If i refresh the page sometimes it loads, often not, or the page loads but with problems (icons do not appear, the page appears all messed up). The problem just started yesterday, and I am wondering whether it is because i used boingo wi-fi at heathrow airport. - I tried deleting the boingo file from the applications menu, but I can't because it says that the application is open, but when i try "force quit" the application doesn't show. - i deleted the contents of the boingo file using "secure empty trash" but still cannot delete boingo from my applications. - when i tried deleting the contents of boingo the message "cannot empty trash because mac swapper is running" - then i used "secure empty trash" which successfully emptied the trash. - still cannot delete boingo from my applications. What is the problem and how can I fix it? I am not very computer literate, so i would appreciate your help. Thank you!!!! [/QUOTE]
