Re: Bookworms: What are you reading at the moment?

Just finished Haruki Murakami's Kafka on the Shore (on the laptop), a strangely surreal and enjoyable read - not everyones cup of tea. That makes about a half dozen of his that I've read and I have...

Re: Do you have a will

Took me year's drafting a will - most were far too complicated. Tried a local Accrington solicitors and sacked him after two months and nothing to show.

Re: Goa Visa

Remember to visit or apply at the Indian embassy not the Passport office. If you visit get there early and you can get your visa on the same day!

Re: DG834G wireless network

Is the firewall function of the DG834 wireless network good enough then? I didn't get a feeling of confidence reading the manual.

Thanks,
Godfrey

Re: DG834G wireless network

I have both Zone Alarm 7.0.337 and PC-cillin 2002.

I was thinking of replacing PC-cillin with Zone Alarm.

However I have to turn both firewalls off before network XPs can see each other.

Re: DG834G wireless network

I'm making progress now.

I looked at the MS webpage for Vista you suggested.

Re: DG834G wireless network

At this stage I would be quite happy to see just the two XPs sharing resources. Vista sees the internet ok.

Do you have any ideas on where to start or what diagnostics I could run?

Re: DG834G wireless network

Yes Ian. One is Vista and two are XP. Is that significant?

The two XPs were wireless connected on an adhoc network and shared resources fine. Cannot even do that now. What I have noticed is that...

Re: Intersting info on property

I keep an eye on Churchills every time I walk home from the station. I would buy it if I had the money. For house or business it's a steal at that price. Did you put in a bid today?
