jtl Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 Everyone of their computers can't be used because they're constantly restarting. That's why the bar at the bottom of CNN and CNN Headline News isn't there. Because those computers were effected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
