okay, seems like the gremlins are either in my computer or in here........the pm button has disappeared and there are 2 profile buttons.....although you hover your cursor over the one on the right and it says it's the private message button. _________________ Jacqui © Proud Pies 2003 and beyond |

Looks like it's just you. What browser are you using?
I had a similar problem using a beta version of IE7 a while ago. I found re installing helped cure the ills. |

I had to stop using firefox cos something got into it and it kept playing up. Even once I restored the computer settings and ran all sorts of virus scans.
I liked the dictionary option but too much trouble. _________________ Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down. |

Jacqui, it's your computer by the sounds of it. Tried deleting Firefox, and starting again? |

Firefox will have those problems if running in conjunction with M$. It is not a problem with Firefox, just a bug in the M$ code.
PP, you can't download IE7 because every time you turn on your pc, it sends a message to M$ that verifies if your O/S is legit. In fact, you'll find it's the same situation with any of the other M$ software you have installed (WMP, OE, etc,.) If it thinks you are using non-legal (pirated) software, it will prevent you from most of the available updates. You should receive a pop-up when trying to download an update, so make a note of the phone number to contact, ring them (M$ Australia), and see if they will re-activate your O/S. If not, they will also advise you if your copy of M$ has already been activated, and if it has, your are shit out of luck because they only allow one copy per machine. _________________ Whale

Eerr...my copy of XP is not legit. And I've checked Vista and cannot be bothered.
Dale, you know there is always a work around for these products. |
