I forgot to mention that i tried installing dropbox and virtual box from fedoraplus but installation stopped with an error, could this have corrupted the yum config?

hi guys,
My problem has been fixed and thanks very much to bob *Administrator and Official* at http://forums.fedoraforum.org/member.php?u=4602.

He dedicated time/effort and guided me step by step until the problem was fixed. I'm new to linux and being guided to solve a problem the way bob did was so exciting and challenging.

Thank you.

Here is the post.
