When I click the "Click Here to Begin" button either nothing happens, or I hear the audio but can't see the tutorial. What am I doing wrong?
Slower Internet connections such as those via 28.8K or 56K modems may cause this problem to occur. Be sure that when you select the "Click Here to Begin" button that you only click once and then wait for the tutorial to load (Note load times will vary depending on your connection speed, and the size of the tutorial being downloaded). Clicking the button more than once, or clicking on another link after you
have clicked the [Click here to begin] button may interrupt the download OF the tutorial. IF you hear the audio but cannot see the tutorial,
try minimizing the different windows that you may have OPEN until you get TO the window WITH the tutorial IN it.
The reason the tutorials may seem very slow, or will not advance properly IS often because the tutorial has not fully loaded.Make sure that the
number OF audio pages loaded(shown BY the number TO the RIGHT OF the speaker icon IN the tutorial navigation box)
IS equal TO the total number OF pages IN the tutorial(shown BY the number just LEFT
OF the [Back] tutorial navigation button ). ONCE the audio IS fully loaded you will be able TO progress through the tutorial.
Why can't I see the "Advance" button in the tutorial?

7. Click "Apply"
8. You will get a message indicating that: "Windows will now apply your new desktop settings" and that it will take a few seconds; click "OK".

Every time I launch a tutorial using Internet Explorer, a blank window opens, or I get a message saying that I'm prohibited from running Active X; what's wrong?
If you get a blank window each time you launch a tutorial, see a image in the upper right corner of the page, or receive the following message in Internet Explorer: "Your current security settings prohibit running Active X controls on this page. As a result, the page may not display correctly", this is most likely due to not having Active X enabled in your browser.
