provided below. If this information does not provide a resolution to your problem,
contact us at support@dietfit.com.
|
| Q. |
|
Does DietFit.com require any special hardware? |
| A. |
|
Because of DietFit.com's special visual features, a recent-model PC or
Macintosh with at least 64MB of memory (preferably 128MB or more)
and a processor speed of
300 MHz or higher is recommended. A fast Internet connection, such as a
cable modem or DSL line is suggested but not required.
A screen resolution of at least 600x800 pixels is required.
Set your display to High Color or True Color for maximum realism. |

| Q. |
|
What web browser is required? |
| A. |
|
At this writing, DietFit.com supports the following web browsers:
- Windows 95/98/Me/NT/2000/XP: DietFit's advanced graphical
features have been tested under Microsoft Internet Explorer,
versions 4.0 and higher, Netscape versions 4, 6, and 7,
and Mozilla.
Most users will experience better performance with Microsoft's browser;
version 5.5 or higher is recommended.
Some early releases of Netscape 6 may not be fully compatible with all
DietFit features, so upgrading to the most recent version is
recommended. The current version of the Opera browser
also appears to work well, but it has not yet been tested fully.
- Macintosh: Only Netscape 4.x browsers are known to support
all of DietFit's features on the Macintosh. Internet Explorer
4.5 or higher may also work, but its use on the Macintosh is
not yet fully supported.
The Internet Explorer and Netscape browsers may be obtained free from
Microsoft and
Netscape. |

| Q. |
|
Can I use DietFit with America Online? |
| A. |
|
Yes, but you must use a separate web browser, such as Netscape or Microsoft Internet Explorer,
because the AOL browser does not fully support all of DietFit's advanced features. If you're
an AOL member, here's how to use DietFit:
- Keep America Online running
- Start Microsoft Internet Explorer or Netscape (in Windows you can usually find one or the other
in your "Start" menu)
- Go to http://www.dietfit.com/index.cfm in Internet Explorer
or Netscape
If you do not have a copy of Internet Explorer or Netscape, they can be downloaded for free (see below),
or contact America Online to request a copy.

| Q. |
|
When I try to use DietFit.com, a message displays saying that I need
the Shockwave Flash plugin. What is it, and how do I get it? |
| A. |
|
DietFit's advanced graphical interface requires the Macromedia Flash
plug-in, version 5 or higher (6 or higher for Mozilla and Netscape 6 and 7),
which allows your web browser to display
interactive graphical applications. This plug-in is available free
from Macromedia's web site.
You may click here
to go to Macromedia's site, where you can download and install the plug-in, or just
follow the on-screen prompts when you enter the DietFit site. After installing
the plug-in, return to the DietFit.com home page.

I have the required web browser and Flash plug-in, but I still can't
