WAITING?

1. SHAQ MAY BE HIDING on your side or bottom bar (where programs are minimized to). The SHAQ item will probably have a coffee symbol and "Success" with it.
CLICK ON THE SHAQ ITEM and SHAQ should pop-up.

2. AT FIRST, SHAQ takes 2-3 minutes to load on slow Internet connections, but is normally fast afterwards.
AFTER COMPLETING SHAQ, it takes 1-4 minutes on slow Internet connections to send the data back and calculate results--DO NOT INTERRUPT THE PROCESS or you could lose your results!

TO BEGIN SHAQ, wait for the POP-UP Frame and click on the button that says to begin.
AFTER RECEIVING YOUR RESULTS,
(1) Click on 'Get Savable Results' button in the LEFT window to get a savable, printable copy of your SHAQ results in THIS/RIGHT window, and
(2) click on INTERNET LINKS in the LEFT window and they will open HELP LINKS in THIS window.
