    AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHH!!!! :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

    I'm getting really peed off now!!

    'Puter is playing up - recognises some websites but won't connect to others (like Yahoo) so comping is very slow at the mo'.

    It keeps saying 'cannot connect to proxy server' - but only on some sites!

    I'm not technical at all & it's really starting to bug me!
    The Rock Chick, she say 'courtesy costs nowt' - spread the word! :D
