    l dont know if this is possible but if l need to be at my comp to go through something to get back on line id be more than happy if anyone pm me a contact number and l could ring u to go thro things , but understand if thats not a good idea

    just a thought x

    alternatively my sis is only across the road so lve left this website on her screen to check if any anyone gets back so she could ring me with instructions

    While we wait for AliEnRIK to come back from lunch (do aliEns have lunchbreaks?), you could try the first thing I do when the internet connection goes.
    Shut down your PC. Switch off your router/modem at the mains. Wait one minute. Switch router/modem back on. Boot up PC and see if you can connect.
    Make sure you do it in this order. Cutting the power forces the router/modem to reset itself and this may do the trick.
    Sky may already have asked you to do a similar routine.
    No free lunch, and no free laptop ;)

    nightmare

    Looks like 'incredimail' was embedded in Internet Explorer

    Try FIREFOX for now ~
    http://www.mozilla-europe.org/en/firefox/
    :idea:
  • dont think she will be able to download that rik. can't access the net. what do you think about restart with last known good config, or system restore?

    or she could download portable firefox on her other pc
