HP Store Online - Ne-OW? (NOW in kitty language)?

Ne-OW? (NOW in kitty language)?

This question is for all you clever cats out there. Spent five hours renewing Norton 360, (they kept checking their $150. package & putting it on my order for ONE thing, & I could have roasted a turkey while waiting for it to install), I've now downloaded one of my printers to be compatible with my new Windows Vista. YET. I CANNOT set up the old toolbar (w/my default printer) so I can see my level of ink, or choose pages I want to print, or copies or anything. I don't even have an icon after downloading HP Laser Jet on my driver! Yahoo gives me toolbar options I don't want & won't let me "customize" for the printer. (Lexmark printer is next!) I CAN'T STAND IT. Does anyone know what I'm talking about? My toolbar (as I knew it) vanished after Windows Vista. I WANT IT BACK! I'm confident that those of you who set up such wonderful blogs can help me with what would "seem" so simple! Do you have Vista Home Basic? Lead me by the hand, please? Ne-OW? Deep Blue, thank you for caring--Basil, seems I had no choice when buying a new PC--now my email default has vanished, & when I click on Internet Explorer, instead of Yahoo, I get Google (which I have never used) plus @#!**^%@!! that I wonder if I'll ever resolve. I'd give up, but I need this THING...(even the guy who installed the PC didn't know what he was doing!) Oh, DRECK. Edit: I will NEVER ask another question! Either it's dumb, or boring or both. Time to fold my tent. I never saw Basil's warnings...but what could I have done?

I wish i could help but i have no idea.
Ouch! I guess it doesn't help any to repeat what I've been saying to everyone who will listen for the past weeks: "DO NOT UPGRADE TO VISTA TILL IT'S ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY!!" (and don't get me started about Norton or Lexmark either..). Good Luck Psychic Cat - the victims of Microsoft 'Ne-OW' with you..
