I sent him a text the other morning on my way to work to tell him a bit of the M6 he uses was closed. He replied so his is about somewhere :D

I'm not denying that we have had words in the past, but do you have ANY proof that someone such as entwisi would be put off by having bad words? If so he's not the man that I know.

Royboy hasn't been on, for a week or so, could that be the result of 'bad words' and blame it on me, or is it simply that he is on holiday?

Or maybe entwisi and Royboy are having an affair and have run off together :rolleyes::D

What you really need Shaz is to stop using Windows and switch to Linux instead ;)

I recently had a problem with Firefox whereby only the border of window was visible showing the desk top where the page should have been.
Is yours like that?
I tried reinstall, system restore and several other remedies.
I thought that I would have to resort to using Internet Explorer again, and then by pure fluke-
I clicked on the maximise/minimise button at top right and it cured it

tried system restore, even that aint working
 
Linux is for uber geeks ;)

Back up as in take your piccies off and whatnot as mentioned, not back up the system, my apologies, I should of explained that clearer....

You should be ok backing up pictures and other files that can not contain a virus though.

Shaz, is it just Firefox, if you try IE does that work?

You can be trying stuff for ages and it may eventually get it up and running but trust me, start again and be more careful this time, always kkep AV up to date, make the most of windows updates and stop surfing "interesting" sites late on !!!

Or if you must then choose some decent ones !!! ;)

I can take a look at it for you but will charge, I would have no way of knowing how much if you want it "restoring" if you want it "rebuilding" it would take a day.

I work as a Technical Consultant for the government and have done for 13yrs now, my advice is not guess work, its the quickest, most reliable way forward.

Cheers

You do that and I applaud you for it, thats how I got into this game too !!!

Please feel free to msg if you ned any help with anything and I will try and help best I can.
 
Are you sure you don't use the .net framework though?
Turning off auto updates is ok but you should set it to tell you when updates are available and ask you if you want to install them. That way you can decide if you install the update and are informed as soon as they available.
 
didnt manage to get the 'problem' fixed, aparently it was the motherboard that was naffed, a VERY good friend of mine has lent me his pc for as long as i need it, how do i get a full screen though? i have to move the thingy across at the bottom all the time to read all of the screen
