1)how can you PERMANENTLY turn off that stupid narrator that comes on everytime i turn my pc on, so that she doesn't come on even the next time i turn my pc on?

2)is there some way to have a sound (ding) after your pc is all loaded up and ready to go after pressing the power button on my tower?

3)when i'm in word the font size always begins at 10 which is too small to see. so then i change it to 14 but when i close word it goes right back to 10. how can i set this preference as my default so i never have to change the font size again?

4)how can i erase the drop down list that builds up under my address bar at the top?

5)i use the magnifier sometimes but it makes that section at the top of my screen which blocks what i want to see. is there some way to make it just like a real magnifying glass looks (small), so i can move it around with my mouse if need be to only look at a small section where i place my mouse?
i have vista BASIC.
