windows 2002 home edition

[Guest]

I would like to have some insight as how this edition works. We have the DVD
player, but it will not play, even though when i go to programs, it all looks
fine. I am not knowledgable at all, so please, forgive me. I just need to
understand a few things. How is it that we have virus scan? I thought it
comes with any Microsoft program. I am paying to have one, and it doesn't
work, it says, I have to unistall it again, or every time, I change the
program. I have 98, 200 and 2002. I was given this computer, and find it to
be kind of confusing. The web accelarator doesn't work either. It says I have
to change security level to a lower one. Must reset after changes. Does
anybody understand problems? Please help

I don't see any relation to moviemaker with these queries, so you may be
better off posting to another newsgroup, but taking the chance you are
unsure what you are doing or how to do it....
To pay a dvd you need dvd playing software which has the right codec to play
the files on these discs, something like powerdvd, windvd.
XP home, which is what I assume you have does not come with anti-virus, so
you need to keep paying for and using the one you have. It comes with a
firewall, which is different and needed.
I wouldn't bother with the web accelerator.
