I have to say cd, that was a very poor insult.

Plus why be nasty to Cheese Head when there is the much better target of Barrnett the retard in that thread? (see above post)

well that is simply due to it being an OD2 franchise. It, along with Freeserve, MSN and Coke's music stores relys on a particular system of DRM to protect the music.

Now although I can understand the claim that Mac doesn't have the version of DRM required I don't see why it's restricted to only IE.

The problem is all IE plugins are now activex controls.

You can have a play around in your security settings panel. Otherwise wait for SP2 which should get shot of this annoyance.

iTunes Music Store should be launching here next week. Fab.

Annoyingly though tracks are meant to be costing 99p each which is very unfair. Tracks in the US cost 99c so taking into account the exchange rate they should be at about 54p.

Isn't Morrisons a pile of crap

Right then - now my local Safeway is being made into a Safeway Compact as they can't be bothered to revamp it properly. However I do have a local morrisonsified store and there is plenty of their stuff in SC. All their veg is appauling, it has no flavour whatsoever and just looks grotty. The boiled ...

I presume he was refering to MSN Messenger.

It's a nice little proggie - I must get some other people to install it though.

Interesting to see what happens to Pop! though, along with The 411, they're playing my Student Union on the last night of term.

yes, as Chris's correct shortcut in welcome mode activates fast user switching.

If you have a password though it should do the kina the same thing as Lock Computer.

Re: 3 Outlook Express 6 Q's / general encoding

Personally I hate email sent as plain text. It always seems to be wrapped at the edges badly, which makes it a pain in the arse to print it should I require a hard copy. It uses a hell of a lot more paper for longer emails too and there is lots of wasted space on the r/hand side. Also it's not very...
