AskWoody LoungerI seem to recall of a problem with a spammer in Russia a couple of years back who was flooding Russians with spam. Their solution was a bullet in the head. A bit extreme I agree.

AskWoody LoungerI use search status 1.36 and the google page rank no longer displays. Bit of a minger FF 7.1, its a bit quicker but no other obvious advantages for me.

AskWoody LoungerNot sure I understand this, what web service?
Can you access “Date and Time” from the control panel?
“timedate.cpl” should be located in C:WindowsSystem32.When windows doesn’t know what program to open a file with it offers to go online and find the correct one “this is the web service i describe” I have used this since it first came out with win 95 I think and it has never ever found the right program, hence my comment “about as much use as tits on bull”. Yes I can adjust date and time from the control panel as I originally posted. Cheers gws
