That's not what you told us initially.

You reported the three "strange visitors":

then nearly 18 hours later you said:

    Now here's another puzzle. I don't know if it's related to my 
    previous question about unwanted visitors in top, but I decided that 
    I ought to start a new thread.

    I managed to get rid of those pesky unwelcome visitors, and imagined 
    that I was on the way to having a machine that actually does what I 
    want.

    All of a sudden, most of my browsers will not launch at all. I even 
    went on a spree, and downloaded lots of different browsers, just to 
    try them out (and to see if I could get anything to connect to the 
    Internet).

I know that you are frustrated, and I feel for you.

I am confident that the computer is fine for doing work, or at least it 
will be once you stop "fixing" it and actually do fix it. I am not a 
betting man, but if I were, I would bet dollars to donuts that the 
problems you are having have nothing to do with the hardware, or that 
Devuan is broken.
