Hi Jackie, normally BroadBand is always connected, are you saying that before you shut your PC down you actually disconnect the BB conection? If you are and do not want it to auto connect then you may have to change some setting as it is most likely connecting again as soon as you restart the PC. Personally I would go through all your programs that require a connection for auto updating and disable 'auto update' and if you are not already running a firewall then get one and it will then always tell you when a program is trying to connect to the internet you will them have a choice to allow it or not, once all your rules are in place it should be OK, you may want to leave 'auto update' running on your anti-virus though! Hope this is clear, good luck.regardsPearly

[quote user="Benjamin"]Welcome to the forum Princessjo.PearlyIf you were to know Spain at all you would realise why Jo asked the question. In southern Spain especially there are literally thousands of vehicles on other than Spanish plates. The problem is so great that I think the Guardia Civil Trafico division just do not have the resources to tackle the problem.A trend also seems to be starting on here to take the p*ss out of newcomers either because they ask what might appear to the ill informed to be a naive question or because they make an unfortunate spelling mistake. If you want to take it out of anybody why not try PdF; at least you'll get as good back as you give even if you can't understand what it's all about.[/quote]Actually I have just returned from Spain and I met an English guy driving around in his 4x4 on UK plates, he has lived there for two years and admiited that he knew that the probability was that as he had no MOT that his Spanish insurance would not cover him in the event of an accident. The fact that you tell us that there are literally 1000's of non Spanish reg cars ther and that it is a big problem for the Guardia means that the OP surely knows that it would be illegal to NOT register her car here in France. Are you saying that you cannot give as good back to me as PdF, well I have to agree with you. And Terry1956 I have to tell you that when you moved to France it was NOT compulsory to have your sense of humour removed but I guess that in your case they did not need to remove it because it was never there in the first place![kiss]Pearly

Of course not, we are all one now in a united Europe, you will find that in France it is quite alright to drive around ib foreign registered cars, you will be amazed by the number of UK plates you will see. The beauty of it is that you will not need a CT (MOT) a no-one will know you are here, voila!regardsPearly

The range of 'Le Petit Marseillais' liquid soaps are quite popular back home, they are nicely packaged and not too expensive and are available from Intermarché.regardsPearly[I]

Hi, if you do not feel confident installing a TV card into your PC then you could try something like this:http://www.plextor.com/english/products/ConvertX-AV100U.htma search on Ebay will most likely find you one at a reasonable price, good luck.regardsPearly

I think that in London your friends will need to buy a ticket from a machine before boarding a bus, they would save money by buying a one or two day travel card.regardsPearly

Hi, I have three Gits and the income from them is very low, no-one seems to be able to find them using the normal search engines, Be very careful how you advertise your Gits.best regardsPearly

brilliant Clair, David Surkamp kicks of a european tour on the 15th, unfortunately it only takes in Germany and Greece. I have two other albums, 'Lost in America' and 'Third' both are not as good as the first two that you have IMHO. Just made me listen to Julia again...thank you[:)]

I just popped in to the other place and there is a 'panda' posting there too, is s/he an older version so that s/he fits in over there?
