    In the last seven days we have gone with no email enquiries from hundreds of views to our website. This is odd as we usually have around 60 a day at least. Enquiries. As a test I sent some messages from the website contact form which had been working successfully for four years. None of the...

    Am I right re-installing Windows at least once a year?

    Located it. It was an add on, onto Chrome. :mad: Bankooka, or something, had been slowing down my computer performance. :mad: Now it's gone. :D

    Am I right re-installing Windows at least once a year?

    Got another problem with this computer. It goes very slow when I am using Chrome. Never used to. I've used C cleaner and other virus programs. No viruses. Must be something on Chrome. An add on maybe... I'm gonna find out. :)

    wi-fi usb stick works better with the rubber removed

    Sounds disgusting. :D But the rubber fell off the end of the stick and I couldn't put it on. It exposed two metal prongs. :eek: Strange thing was the reception has vastly improved. With the rubber on the reception was fair but with it off it's excellent. :D

    Global shipping company 'on holiday' until Tuesday

    So get this. I wanted to send a parcel through Fed Ex from the UK to America. I went through their lengthy shipping info, what's in the parcel, its weight, size of parcel, blah, blah blah. At the end I paid with credit card and waited for my custom documents to print off. 'Sorry, we were...

    Saying something's free when it's not

    I was on a website posting a job, and it said 100% free. So I went through all the stages. There were about 7 stages and when I got to the end to post the job, it said that I will be paying £19.99. WTH! :eek: This really annoys me. :mad: It's like another time I wanted to post something...

    About two years ago, I threw about 800 video tapes out that were in my garage. Could be more. They all went to the tip.

    Battery saving app told me I had 87% remaining, then it died

    My battery icon was telling me I had 15% left, but the app had different ideas. I should have known. I hadn't charged the phone for two days. :D I was just testing the app. ;) Lucky I had another fone.

    Am I right re-installing Windows at least once a year?

    Thanks for the advice, gentlemen. I have taken the advice and I did not re-install Windows. Instead, I got hold of C-Cleaner and installed. Also Spybot and Avast seemed to flush a lot of cr** out, and I recovered 700GB in a few minutes. PC is now running faster and C-Cleaner keeps reminder me...

    Am I right re-installing Windows at least once a year?

    Doing a re-install is the only way I can get my 1TB or 995GB back. I don't know where the hell the other space is going to. But least a know with a clean install I have got rid of a load of c***.
