You probably clicked on this thread hoping to read about something else :-) I noticed that most people when talking about money issues in relation to pound (£), just use GBP because of the difference in keyboards universally, i thought i'll add these little shortcuts to the thread, and also if any one is having any problems ( computer ones ), they can post them here, and people can try and sort it:

Alt 0163 = £
Euro sign = Alt 0128
¼ = 0188
½ = 0189
¾ = 0190
½ = 01469
â„¢ = 0153
¬ =0172


For your Antiviruses: AVG (http://www.grisoft.com/us/us_dwnl_free.php ) is free and the best !

Spyware:Spybot -- Search & Destroy !

startpage guard ( http://www.spywareinfo.com/downloads/spg/ ) To stop your homepage from being hijacked !

I usually charge for this kind of service, out of office hours ( which is a good way to write off some bills i.e mobile phones et al ). For those still using explorer, you might want to dump it for Mozilla or Opera ( both are much faster and better ).

There seems to be a virus going around, hope you are well protected?

I don't have a cold. Why do you?

Thanks for the tip on the free anti-virus software.

Maybe computer problems would be better served on the Lounge Forum which is more general.
As for Mozilla and Opera being faster, I think thats a matter of opinion.

Hey - have you come across this great cartoon (by a Vancouver chap I believe!!)
