the problem I had was getting QQ.com on Google Chrome. I do not know if I just had a clutzed effort or not.
on my netbook, I had both QQ Int'l & the QQ 'normal' China version. that was what I wanted to accomplish; anyway,
I utilized I.E. on the netbook, Googled again but this time "Bing" was collateralized with Google.
So, it brought to the correct website. I did the download.
Now, everything if fine.
So, I thank the few members for their help.
