Thanks for the above reference. However, I will have to power up my old XP laptop to view it because my Konqueror only shows me the source, making life a little difficult :-)
Oh boy. In Linux there's always another way. :-) Install Opera, Mozilla or Firefox for browsing. Never ever fire up XP again if you can help it. :-)
That sent a shiver down my spine. I just bought my nephew a new Dell desktop with XP and I'm dreading the day I get a call to say he and his dad has problems. I think I'll get them to to consult the eXPerts/mouse-jockeys they know first - most people using Windows reckon secretly that I know very little about real computers, thankfully as they only consult me when desparate. I can see horrors when they hook up to MS with a bootleg copy of Office XP they installed and if they get frightened off, next comes the spyware, viruses, malware, even if they register and update, the *ware still won't take any notice. Have I just dug the perfect deep Hole?
I did think about that, but as a newbie I am timid... I have the feeling that Konqueror goes with kde, and Mozilla goes with gnome, and I am unsure if I can have them both installed???
