why do I have to sign in to IgHome everytime I open my browser?
I have two computers, one with xp and one with win 7. On the xp I open my browser and am ready to go. I click gmail and my mail opens. ON win 7 I have to sign in to personalize igHome and then have to sign to gmail to get mail.
As the case with everybody I am not too sharp with computers.
Any help or advise?
