    Sounds like you're being blocked by a firewall.

    I've upgraded to 8, I prefer it to 7. My PC seems to run better, I do mostly use the traditional desktop view than the metro view.

    Win 8 aint that bad, it takes awhile to get use to though and the whole metro thing with no start button can work on your nerves especially if you the kind of person that needs to run certain apps in Administrative mode like cmd.

    My rule of thumb when it comes to Windows, skip a generation before changing. So just waiting on Windows 9 before leaving 7, I still love the ease of 7.
    contact me if you are in Cape Town and looking for PC Hardware at very competitive pricing. We also do web and graphic design.

    Is 8.1 going to cost anything?
