[QUOTE="Tbone, post: 1097603, member: 142153"] Thanks 6string. I disabled the automatic login, so it should ask for the password when the computer is turned on. While in that section of the settings I noticed that the firewall is off, and so is filevault. Should these be set to on? I kind of understand the filevault and don't know that I really need it but coming from a pc I would think the firewall should be on? I also found there is no master password set; is there any point to that if it's a single user computer? As for the picture issue, when posting on a forum and attaching pics I would click attach then click through folders and select the pic. On the Mac if I click attach I can select iphoto but it won't allow me to go into iphoto and get a pic, I have to put it on the desktop where I can find it to attach. I think you do it like this also but it's awkward and seems there should be an easier way. Thanks for all the help. [/QUOTE]
