If you don't visit porn sites, you've got nothing to worry about.

Rik · Jun 13, 2009, 18:55:40

What's porn, Seb?

Sebby · Jun 13, 2009, 19:22:49

I'm not sure, I just got that from the BBC article.

Rik · Jun 13, 2009, 19:24:12

You don't have to remove the previous version, just install new version over the top.

Rik · Jun 17, 2009, 17:52:52

Thanks. I'll try and find time tomorrow.

Noreen · Jun 17, 2009, 17:56:05

Will you be on the forum tomorrow, Rik?

Rik · Jun 17, 2009, 18:00:20

I will, in between packing, polishing the car and doing the tyres, fluids etc, but I intend to be off by 6pm, as we leave for Scotland at 1am, and I'd like to grab a few hours sleep.

What amazes me is the numbers of mains chargers I'm packing, phone, iPod, PDA, Sammy, toothbrush, cameras (2), camcorder etc. Life used to be simpler.

Steve · Jun 17, 2009, 18:27:39

I think you need an iphone 3 GS

then anything extra would be the toothbrush and a decent camera!

Rik · Jun 17, 2009, 18:34:46

Will you tell Sue or shall I, Steve.

RogerP · Jun 17, 2009, 21:03:04

I did the Irfanview update this morning, I've just resized a photo for email, and tried to 'save as' and it wants me to go to another (3rd party) site, and I need a code. Uninstalled the updated version and reinstalled the previous one.

Maybe it's a change of policy from Irfanview?

Am I being thick?
