Hi, Nothing wrong as far as I can tell - although I'm running a bit slow today to be honest! Regards Tom
All sorted now. It would seem that I had acquired some tracker gremlins, possibly through links on the forum, that were interfering with access but running a cleaner and resetting my password seems to have fixed matters. I must say that the old fashioned RAF and USAAF Gremlins such as afflicted the likes of PO Prune and were still around when I got into computers in the 60s (just before they were made redundant by American Bugs - there was great hilarity when an internal job spec appeared for a de-bugger with raucous comments about that being one for the Navy) were much more amenable pests to deal with.
A PC with the latest versions of Windows Office etc. The problem appears to be with the forum software and Opera. I'm rather fond of Opera as I was the project manager that managed its tranfer onto the Nokia brick (arguably the first smart phone)
The forum as one big gremlin he goes by the name of Clive Feed him after midnight and god help us but give him a match and watch out
I've got a Nokia 3310 on pay as you go and it is very good. It's rather a small brick. When they shut down 2G I'll give up phones. It's not a phone anyway, just a portable telegraph station. It's beyond me why anyone actually talks into one on the train so everybody else can hear, or why they just stare at them whilst crossing roads. There was a programme on t'telly about Nokia where someone pointed out the obvious question:" Why would you put a sheet of glass in your pocket which only runs for 12 hours...when our phone batteries last a week?" Anyway, gremlins are on the increase. If it rains the internet doesn't work. Apple Safari tells me this site is not secure. Also the Australian Archives "Record Search" was not secure yesterday, but is now. Also, my "Computer Active" magazine ( print version) says huge numbers of National Health Service computers still run Windows 7 which is going to be abandoned by Microsoft. However, my ex-British Gas Panasonic Toughbook from 1992 still fires up despite the loss of the internal battery and it runs Windows ME on a trivial amount of memory. Nothing will ever be as good a word-processing program as WordPerfect for Windows 3.1. Apart from a pencil and a piece of paper
