I have decided to start this thread for discussing technical issues that come up rather than messing up the other threads.
I guess the first issue seems to be pasting Word text into posting boxes.
Recently we have had three threads lockup up as a result of posts involving Word text.

Hi Tiger/Starling/Chloe/Doggie - this is what I am getting all over any programmes I open on my PC.............
Do not open the word 'complete' in case it transfers!!

Wendy. Have you cleared all your cookies, history etc?
Have you done a complete virus scan?
I am using PC unleashed and I have now downloaded MS security essentials and re-installed windows defender - have run three different scans and nothing was found - got clean bill of health but there is something lurking. And yes I do have local PC shop who I have used before but it will cost about £100 for de-bug and save files so I'd sooner do it myself. I have the facility to restore to factory settings and I have done it before in the past on an old PC. All my software is on disc so that I can easily re-install what I want. I just need that external hard drive to save my pics & docs. If all that fails then I will get a new PC!!!!!!
I use MSE without any problems.
Is your computer worth saving? How much RAM do you have on it and what is it's max?
Wendy have you tried clearing all the cookies etc?
You are a star doggie
am doing that now Tiger
just upgraded to 2GB RAM which is all I need to run WindowsXP and it is great - such a difference! I think it's worth a try to save PC - it's not that old but I won't pay anyone to do it - would rather put it towards new one if I need to. Just spent out on external hard drive 'cos I needed one
ps Chloe - RAM upgrade only cost me £25 - put it in myself!
