    dh i trying to not look upset about me not having made a pudding or providing cheese. I feel a bit guilty....
    Do you have: 1 egg, couple of spoons of jam/treacle/similar, some SR flour, sugar, butter?

    Microwave a steamed jam/treacle/similar pud: here

    I bought the butter/flour for this last week, so I can whip one up on demand. I've also always got a couple of sachets of instant custard in the cupboard :)

    Every single person over 30 has a nuker; we're only ever cooking for one so an oven's a waste.

    my family used to have a microwave for defrosting green tripe e'd not remembered to get out for the dogs. Once you have associated a microwave with the smell of hot green tripe and cleaned one out after such purpose (yuck, I'm lmost retching thinking about it) you really really find you don't ant one.

    OK, chaps, BAD News, I had cleared my machine out of the virus I mentioned earlier but it has come back

    GOOD News, I think I know why it was reinfected.

    BAD News, every time I go to moneysavingexpert.com (and not for any other site), in my avira antivirus web protection report I get the following warning:

    10/12/2011,21:35:35 [DETERMINE] [1193] The URL (http://static.chartbeat.com/js/chartbeat.js) was detected as Malware(c). It was blocked.

    I am not saying this is conclusive, but my current working theory is that this site may be the cause of my problems.

    I can post this because I am currently infected, so it makes little difference to me.

    chartbeat is a bugg4h, it has in the past prevented MSE pages loading for me in less than 10 minutes.

    I think you'll find that you have a red herring.... chartbeat is simply cr4p in its own right

    Sigh, whatever is causing this is a !!!!!!, I hope you are right that it isn't MSE. I am so fed up at the moment, grrrr.
