Depends on whether you consider it a silly question or not. It's definately against the rules to ask questions that have been asked and answered. It's also against the rules to ask somebody else to do something for you that you are unable to complete due to personal ignorance and/or laziness.
Do you consider the fact that you cannot make the internet work indicative of a lack within yourself? Or with the universe/internet?
I say that you should at least try using an alternative browser before you throw in the towel and admit that you should be sporked.
I like you.
Also I did try another browser, three to be exact, and I went to two other sources of 'internet' to see if the problem was with the connection on my end. However, I would like to know how I am being ignorant. Disregarding that I am ignorant to how I am ignorant.
