I only use Outlook Express for newsgroups. There are far better email
carriers than OE. I use Incredimail bbut Opera, Bat and Mozilla all do good
ones. You really need a hardware firewall and a software firewall and update
them regularly. Sounds as if that bug had been there some time. I had to get
new hardware once as some bug had hijacked my browser.
And with that painful thought I'll leave you.

All I've got is and old version of Norton AV and Firewall, the usual Adaware
and Spybot and some other thing that blocks spyware in Active Eggs controls
which I rarely allow to run anyway, and I've not had anything as drastic as
that happen - although one of the few good things about YouBlunder is they
do filter out viruses damned well.
Sometimes I do think someone's got in - like last night when I was using
Photoshop when it slowed down to nothing with the HD grinding away and all
of a sudden, everything I did launched Help.
False alarm. Turned out to be that OE's Message Store had swollen so much
it'd almost filled my D partition where Photoshop's primary scratchdisk is
and E is also nearly full and that's where the secondary one is! I do pity
people who use OE without knowing how to do a clean-up!
I think you're right about the HD. Try doing a full surface scan on the
drive the Registry was originally on in case it's deteriorating and a chunk
of the Registry went missing or got corrupted.
A neighbour of mine had odd disasters and things going missing, and the
"Windows is not properly installed" message once or twice. I told her to
reinstall each time and do a surface scan and she found a steady increase in
bad sectors as time went by. And it was a brand new Mesh PC and their
Customer Support were useless.
In the end she took it back to them, plonked it on the counter and said she
was staying put until it was fully repaired! They did - but after a time it
did start throwing the odd little wobbly again! If you wanna Mess - buy a
Mesh!

It only really comes into its own for newsgroups when you discover how to

I done dat (removed the preview pane) wiv emails, I have an email washer too
that sorts spam from proper stuff so most of the crap is ejected before it
gets near LOOKOUT! Excess but as I only use about 4 newdsgropes, I trust my
antivirus and malware killers, perhaps stoopidly, to get anything that might
sneak in that way. Usually works, though I cannot fathom what happened this
week.
Bestest fings was not losing stuff and having to reinstall from backups and

In a Python voice: "Nooo thanks. I already got one!"
A life? OK. Here's s list:
I do a lot for the community, e.g., spotting safety hazards and getting them
seen to with the aid of Ward Councillors, helping neighbours and the estate
in general;
I try to do at least three 5 mile walks a week for exercise;
I visit any places of interest which are free (coz I'm skint) - Tate
Modern's my favourite;
I listen to World and classical music from a collection of well over a
thousand CDs (from when I wasn't skint!) and the equivalent of a few hundred
more in downloaded MP3s;
I play the Recorder (properly), Harpsichord and a Yamahahaaaha keyboard;
I cook first class meals with no dead animals in them of course!;
I do Calligraphy and illumination including gesso gilding - sometimes for
money!
Painting and drawing - all media except egg tempera (Vegan Nemo) - sometimes
laborious - like my City on a Stalactite which took about six weeks and you
need a magnifier to see the detail!
Sculpture - sometimes Goonish! Like my "Mounted Policeman" - a snarling
cop's head on a shield! - and metal sculpture from junk and found objects;
Messing about in my workshop - like building a new security system for the
flat, recycling thrown-out Hi-Fi gear etc.;
I do a hell of a lot of DIY - some of which will soon involve putting right
and re-doing a lot of what Caaamdin Caaancil's idiot contractors have done
wrong and completely redecorating and reorganising the flat till it looks
like a palace;
I read a hell of a lot too. Sci-Fi, the classics, history, reference stuff -
you name it - from a library of over 2000 books!
And I collect antique and vintage electronic and electrical items from brass
and mahogany stuff to 50s grey crackle lab gear and more recent test gear
which I use, and the odd famous bit like the famous Master Contactor from
off of HMS Belfast!
Is that enough of a life?
Better than collecting football memorabilia, deafening yourself and your
neighbours with rock alleged music and going round or any other shape
mugging old ladies which seems to be considered an acceptable source of
income here in Somers Town!
That enough?
And a lot of the time while I'm doing that - the PC is sitting here all by
itself chugging away automatically downloading stuff using OE's Synchronise
Newsgroup facilities.

Alan Well, last week we showed you how to become a gynaecologist. And
this week on 'How to do it' we're going to show you how to play
the flute, how to split an atom, how to construct a box girder

areas of land cultivatable, but first, here's Jackie to tell you
all how to rid the world of all known diseases.
Jackie Hello, Alan.
Alan Hello, Jackie.
Jackie Well, first of all become a doctor and discover a marvellous
cure for something, and then, when the medical profession really
starts to take notice of you, you can jolly well tell them what
to do and make sure they get everything right so there'll never
be any diseases ever again.
Alan Thanks, Jackie. Great idea. How to play the flute. (picking up a
flute) Well here we are. You blow there and you move your
fingers up and down here.
Noel Great, great, Alan. Well, next week we'll be showing you how
black and white people can live together in peace and harmony,
and Alan will be over in Moscow showing us how to reconcile the
Russians and the Chinese. So, until next week, cheerio.

In my opinion, it ain't the tossers in hoodies that listen to rock music,
they listen to Rap (with a capital C) and Gangsta (sigh) and street and
urban and crap like that - that same sort of crap you hear at 140 Db belting
out of cars at 2 in the morning, driven by a moron with no brain, no hearing
and a sociopathic attitude to the rest of us. Rock afficionados are more
reserved and friendly by far. Or has someone touched a discriminatory nerve
here? Were you dropped on your head by a rock musician as a baby?

And sometimes, talking to oneself is the only sure way of having an
intelligent conversation!

No discrimination intended. Praps I should have just said popular music. I
lost track of all the silly names the different varieties have ages ago.
I fully agree about (c)rapping!!! Who'd have thought that people - ANY
people - would very be daft enough to buy albums of guys singing one lousey
monotonous note aggressively whinging about their troubles or complaining
generally and telling the listener off!!
Kate Bush, Clannad and Madness are about the only people I can listen to -
all out of date - and Ofra Haza, bless her. Typical of the UK - her song
'Galbi' got to No. 5 on the Continent and only 53 over here!
Who cares if it's in a foreign language when you can't understand stuff sung
in English anyway or can't stand to listen to it because their diction is so
silly, pretentious and terrible?!!
Baybair, eesiar, feelen indeed!! - CRAAAAAPPPP!
Overall, my favourite composer is the Master, JS Bach, and my favourite
singer, Emma Kirkby. My favourite World music is Klezmer, and favourite old
stuff, Jack Hylton, Spike Jones, Glenn Miller - that sort of thing and
really old Jazz and Country before it all got over-commercialised.
And I'm supposed to worry about brainless deaf morons taking the mick
because I don't listen to Thump Thump Thump - or worse - the truly
agonising "yatta pum-pum-PUM Tiddleiddleum-PUM yatta pum-pum-PUM
Tiddleiddleum-PUM . . " with two chords if you're lucky and a never changing
key?!
Those two gamekeepers who shot the speakers out with their 12 bores at an
illegal rave are definitely my kind of people. They shouldn't have been
sacked and prosecuted - they should have been given medals!

From October it will be illegal to discriminate against someone applying for
a job on the grounds of age. Not that will stop them. Should have been law
ten years ago.

Canadian employers aren't allowed to ask age (or gender) on an application
form - it's discriminatory. Of course, if the applicant comes for an
interview, you get a pretty good idea. Once a person is hired, then they
have to give date of birth and Social Insurance Number for tax purposes.

They key qualification is whether they can perform the job.
Of course, you can discriminate if the person is below school-leaving age!

It's been law here for twenty years. No one pays any heed to that law
though. They just use a flimsy excuse to not hire you or even give you
an interview. I applied for many sorts of jobs in the nineties and
never even got an interview. Now the unemployment rate has recovered
from the Labor Party disasters and I've only got till December before
I become a full pensioner. Latest unemployment rate in this state is
4.6%. When I was really trying it was over 10% and they were getting
thousands of applications for each position.

LOL! Does he know you're after his job?
In Coronarynation Street, Emily's nephew Geoffrey "Spider" Nugent went to
the Job Centre and was given a job with Social Services. He found himself
in the position of having to snitch on his neighbour Les "Parasite"
Battersby for working while collecting benefits. Then he quitted, he did.

A fair bit of my redundancy money went on keeping this thing going too. I
used to have a Jazz drive. What a rip off they turned out to be! The first
one went duff after about 18 months and I paid £90 for a refurbished
replacement. That lasted about a year and like an idiot I bought another -
the 2GB version - supposed to play the 1GB cartridges as well but didn't so
I had to buy new cartridges. That lasted less than a year but I'd lost the
invoice so couldn't get a replacement. There was even a law suit against
Iomega in the US they were such crap! I notice they don't make them anymore.
Since I gave up on them, my scanner's packed up - I haven't bothered
replacing it - and my monitor, which I'd already repaired twice myself,
finally gave up the ghost with shorted turns on the EHT transformer which
caused a flashover which blew a fair bit of the rest of the circuitry! - so
I replaced it with a cheap refurbished Compaq one from Morgan - and my CD
burner - a very old Memorex one - is so temperamental now that I have to
humour and coax it into working!
All-in-all, the Jazz drives and cartridges and the monitor have set me back
about a grand over the years - a grand that I could really do with right
now!
To anyone reading this: DON'T try to repair or even open a monitor unless
you really know what you're doing! The *ultimate* harm can come to a young
lad like that! - DEADDING!!!! :o((((((((((((((((((
A cheap replacement from here -

is much less painful!

The network part now works fine but I had fun when my mate bought his

his network settings so I had to remember what I had used to make it

I can do better than that. I have several Sensonics accelerometers that can
hear *through* walls - and any other makes of ice cream or sausages! You can
have one for £150 - and that's going cheap, in spite of all of London's

That was the other option for the sculpted pun on Mounted Policeman. An
anatomically correct snarling head is easier to do though than a mass of
tangled limbs, whether they're Catholic or not.
So with regard to limbs, I must bough to your soupy rear knowledge!

That's lubedicrous!
I been on HMS Belfast a number of times and none of the guns is missing.
It's about the most fascinating museum-type venue there is. It's just down
the river from the Tate Modern too - or in the rain, the Tate Sodden - and a
bit further on is Shakespeare's Globe, where you can hear him trying to
decide which pencil to use: "2B . . . or not 2B? That is the question."
