Yes. ;-)  I didn't raise it.   I was responding to the suggestion that there 
isn't a problem.  Someone said that the kerfuffle was for nothing, and that 
was what I was responding to.  But it wasn't Anthony.  I have taken my wrists 
as slapped.

Thanks.  I am worrying about greater things at the moment - like that BIOS 
that needs flashing.  I haven't time to watch Channel 4 anyway.  Happy Valley 
being over, I need another fix.  Am about to try The A Word, but haven't had 
time. 

But I hadn't thought of trying this.  :-((  I am getting too bogged down and 
obsessive.  Well, one has to be a little OCD to enjoy communing with 
computers.  I will give it a try when I have time to do something for me.  
(As opposed to for everyone else!)
