Hello,
    My name is Mike <<visualpersuasions@cox.net>>
    I would like to start off by saying, I went to college and learned
graphic design. I Can run Photoshop, or Quark or macromedia programs like no
other. However Everything outside of those , besides the power button is
still foriegn.
 I have been trying to set up my network for a while and allthough there is
no shortage of things that seem to fly over my head, and Ive learned most of
the major set-up, but i still cannot see the pc in the network browser. Or
am i suppose to see it in the chooser. I am running OS 9.2.2 and win 98 with
a d-link router. Ive researched through books, off the web asked people who
are 10 times smarter than me , and still nothing. Would you be willing to
explain this or direct me to something that can walk me through like a five
year old? There must be one thing i dont understand because anything
internet or exchanged beyond the burner and printer has been an extreme
headache.

    Šactually this is the first time ive gotten outllook to work this much
but im sure its still not right , so your guna be tired of me, really soon!

            I would really apprieciate any remedial help you can offer.
                                Thank You, Mike D.
