Hope someone can help! On my laptop I cant get onto secure servers- it just says page cannot be displayed. Also, I cannot get onto msn messenger and when I troubleshoot it says there is a error with the 'key ports'. How do I fix these problems as I do not have the Windows XP disc? I have been told that the firewall could have something to do with it and when I go onto add/remove programs and try to remove norton internet security 2005 it says the program has encountered a problem and has to close, because of this it will not delete. What can I do?!

British Airways passenger? Book and travel using your old Covid vouchers NOW – or lose them
If you had a British Airways (BA) flight or holiday disrupted by the Covid-19 pandemic, check if you've got an old voucher as millions of pounds' worth are still unclaimed. You'll need to use it to travel before the end of September 2025 – or risk losing it. Below we explain how to search for unused vouchers and how to use them.
