I don't hate anyone or anything. Hate is far too strong an emotion for general use.

Point taken.

So for what non-general use are you saving up this Doomsday emotion?

For those of you who use Firefox, I recommend upgrading to version 3.5. It is significantly faster!  cloud9:

I have and TBH, much as I hate to disagree with you, my PC is significantly slower since. Maybe other coincidental issues are in play.

IE is also slower these past couple of days ~ ever since some automatic updates from Windoze in fact. rubschin:

Yup

I would be tempted to go and see what updates have gone in recently, remove them and then see.

Right ~ I have taken out the latest update and we'll see how it goes.








Seems to be running like a Swiss Watch now.

My niece lives in Switzerland and her partner is Swiss (as is her ex husband, their two children have dual nationality).
She tells me that the Swiss are very sensitive about cuckoo clocks claiming that they are an Austrian invention.

So taking that and your comment I would agree that whilst the PC may now be running like a Swiss Watch the operator is deffo "Cuckoo" whacky115
