New Thrifty Gifty - Organised for Christmas and all ocassions 2010- Santas Challenges

That's kind Esmer, and clever you! I'm no good - DD1 keeps threatening to charge me for I.T support. :eek:

I used the fudge recipe on the fudge thread - type in Ultimate fudge in the search bar thingy (told you I was rubbish). :rotfl:

It was perfect (I added glace cherries) It was lovely and soft, and not grainy, but it did taste very much like pure condensed milk. If you add nuts or rum soaked dried fruit to it, it may calm the sweetness down.

Hello all! Not been on here for aaaages. I'm not making a big deal of christmas this year as there's been so many things going on instead. Luckily I've been prepared since October pretty much.

Do you have virus software? Spyware on your pc?

If you do, Boot up the laptop and run a FULL Virus software, leave it to do its job. IF you have spyware, then please do the same.

If you dont have either then download the free one Martin advertises.

What Version of IE do you have and what version of Windows are you running.

Oh you have all guessed..................... I work in IT for my sins. :rotfl:

PM me and I will try to help

Hi Esmer I do have Norton 360! Downloaded Malware last night and it found 33 malicious files Adware Zongo? Removed them but its made no difference! When I click on Norton nothing happens? Does go through to norton one click and then scans and tells me everything is off! firewall, intrusion thingy the lot! Attempt to fix and nothing happens only get told cannot connect to norton server and do I want to resend my IP address and name!I dont know what else to ddo! May nip down PC World and ask advice but really cant afford to have it fixed right now!On the upside the microwave has dried out and is still working! Boiler is still going strong and had a call this morning from the bloke who fixed it to check it was ok! He reckons that when the cold weather stops I will nedd the outside pipe fixed!Thanks everyone for their wishes and hugs! I was really peeved last night but feeling much better today! Just sort the comp out and I will be happy and back in Christmas spirit! xxx

Clear out your internet cookies and temp files. depending on what version of windows you are using, go to Tools, Internet Options, there should be an option to Delete Temp Internet files, cookies etc. clear all those out and RUN Norton with everything else closed, see if it launces.

I made the Baileys fudge last night and it's absolutely gorgeous! It made more than I was expecting so I filled my Christmas tree and snowman silicone moulds and then also an ice cube tray. I'm going to try the Ultimate fudge you recommended tonight. I've got some glace cherries so I'll pop those in

DS is at nursery until 1pm so I'm wrapping lots of his presents now. I've got them all spread out across the living room floor. I've got some great things for him and I can't wait to see his face on Christmas morning!

I've had trouble like that with my computer Legendmum. I run Norton 360 too. Silly thing I know, but have you tried shutting the computer right down and re-booting it?
