I have downloaded programs that was suggested and I have run some of them, I have received many advice. What I have now is a PC that suddenly take ages to load graphic images. The problem is me, I do not understand computers enough to find my way around it and the programs I downloaded. All the terminology are overwhelming, I have to find a meaning for every new word, so I believe I cause more damage than good. I am very grateful to you all who are trying to solve my problem, I am hoping that at some time I will find the solution to all this. So I thank you all for your time and input, I really do appreciate it.
