    Thanks Gemmzie, beanielou and Zed for saying I'll be missed.

    Truth is, as well as being up to my neck in "busy" at the moment, I miss the old stalwarts - moozie, LA and freebird spring immediately to mind. This place isn't the same without them and I'm a bit fed-up.

    I think it might be time to do something different.

    I agree a lot of the posters who were around a year ago aren't around much now :( Guess it goes like that sometimes online. It's the same on lots of forums :confused:

  • I don't post much on here but I read it all the time. If you having problems describe them in as much detail as possible. I'm good at this stuff. I MIGHT be able to sort it for you.

    The advice in the post above mine for https://www.ccleaner.com is VERY good.

    Clean the rubbish off your hard drive and scan the registry too.

    Very good software and free!

    Also try using an alternative browser. Internet Explorer is awful (IMO). I use Firefox. Great simple and easy to use.

    Well I was having this problem on Firefox on Linux, and it's continuing on Firefox on Win2K.

    It may be my ISP...
