A Few General Questions On The Setup Of XP...

The first is; My father's computer always gives him a dropdown box that
contains all the things he typed into his computer such as websites and it
saved his e-mail address. It was alphabetical.
Do I need to install some other sort of download from Microsoft to get these
extras?
Second; is I downloaded DirectX, but it will not run. What do I do? Is it
some sort of
run command I have to enter?
Third is; I downloaded the 3.0 .Net Redistributable and that will not run.
It states I don't have the required " stuff " to run it. Is there something I
can download from
Microsoft that will run it?
Thank you for your time and patience.
Sincerely,
Kevin

Item 1 on your list!

Select from the Menu in Internet Explorer View, Explorer Bar, Favourites
and History. You can have one or the other to display normally to the
left of the main window. History will display sites visited but
Favourites once you have built your list is potentionally more useful.
Select Help, Contents and Index and search on "Favourites" and "History"
to find out more about each.
