[QUOTE="Rob, post: 33681, member: 176677"] I would advise anybody NOT to try the Microsoft updates. Last saturday I tried to download their update, and it completley mucked my pc up. Have only just got it going again, had to scrub my hard drive. Will now spend the next few days putting everything back where it should be. Thank you very bloody much Microsoft ! I cannot be sure but I think the problem was the update for Internet Explorer. This download was for Windows 98 (2nd Ed), and has nothing to do with other Windows programmes which as far as I know are O.K. I have had a bad time with this update, so has the shop who sold me my P.C, and Rolf has also been caught with this one. While there are many people who I suppose have no trouble with this download, some do. It reminds me of the film "Jaws" because the big bad shark did eat alot of swimmers, but it did not eat everyone who entered the water. If you want to go swimming that's up to you, as for me I'm staying out of the water ! O-no [/QUOTE]
