One of the whizz kids in Technology suggested that I install this add-on. Today, I tried it with the Telegraph Clued-Up site, and it worked well.

It has been downloaded over 20 million times, so it should be OK!!

Hi Dave!

I'm a numpty with this stuff, so can you tell me if, having downloaded Firefox (but not installed it yet), if it doesn't work or I don't like it, will it be easy to get back to IE?

Is it true that FF can remove all the stupid "rolling" adverts?

I'll do (almost!) anything to get a better response time...

And Dave? Please don't worry if you need to tell me to sod off & post in "Technology"! It was just that your thread was too good an opportunity to miss!.. :-)
When you download Firefox you do not, and must not, remove IE.
The two will live quite happily on your hard drive and you and swap and change between the two easily.

Adblock Plus is the addon that stops adverts - it does take a bit of training, but is worth it.

I see no adverts on this site
You're a star, Ethel!!

I've taken the link & I think I'll try Firefox out on the morrow - when I'm a little more compos mentis! It's been a looong day... :-))

With lovely people like Ethel around, you don't need any technical help from me!!

By the way, I'm beta-testing my blog on the DT Toughie - anyone willing to have a look (or leave a comment) is welcome, but there's no money back guarantee if the advice is wrong!! Don't want to shout too loud about it yet.

Hello BigDave44
I have been doing one of the few days a year that I work, last tax year 18, and didn't get home till a while ago. I thought the wordplay for 19d was OK except I thought the plural entry was questionable, the singular, as justified by Chambers is in my opinion, more grammatical. Hope I've not been too obscure! Had a look at your blog, it's OK.
