Thanks for all your help, I use 'meltmail' for these things which I think I heard of from this site. It is very good.

You are right Delilah, most users are far too careless with their own privacy, they leave the doors wide open for abuse.

Before Nick Jr. will give me this game, they want my date of birth! I consider that a security risk. They have no right to that information, no legitimate need for it, and no business knowing it. (Having both email and DOB is a good start for identity thieves.) I don't care what Nickelodeon says they're going to do/not do with the information; so many sites get hacked I'm not convinced by their reassurances. I can understand companies wanting ages, or age ranges, for marketing purposes, but not DOB. I strongly encourage anyone who wants this game to... well, use your imagination!

Sorry, I didn't download it. I thought I was a little old for it, lol and I have no kids. Do a quick search. I am on Vista. Start and it says start search and I would just type in Dora and see what it finds. If you find the program icon right click on it and select send icon to desktop. You can run the program by double clicking then you know exactly which icon you have to send to the desktop.

I hope that helps. Westward (a freebie sandlot game in the weekly giveaway on Sandlot) was exactly the same way. I couldn't find it I actually went into the program files to find it. You can do that too, but I think searching for it would be easier.

Michelle thanks for this, I got it but there is no desktop shortcut
& I cannot find it, please can you advise.
