I'll give full info at the start because it'll be useful for anyone who doesn't know about this. If you type three dashes and then hit Enter, Word inserts a horizontal line across the document....
Can anyone put my wife out of her misery and say who "dunnit" in last night's episode? She watched it until after 9PM but went to sleep before the end. I'm not a fan of Inspector...
I have discovered to my surprise that a full system scan with the above is not as full as you might expect. We use Windows XP and have four XP user accounts. If I log on as myself the full scan does...
I was just trying to set a system restore point (running Windows XP with SP2) and I got a message saying "system restore has been turned off by group policy" and to contact my "domain administrator"....
We have a young dog which is reasonably well behaved but circumstances mean that it has to be left in the house for a few hours each day. It copes OK with this (doesn't howl or act destructively) but...
Could anyone give me an idea of the likely price of a beagle or border collie pup from a reputable dealer. Not a show quality dog, just to keep as a pet. All I can find on the net are US sites....

The Channel 4 signal in our area is pretty weak, with poor sound and picture reception. However, if I select the VCR channel on the TV, take the VCR off standby and run C4 through that, the picture...
I've seen some adverts for spectacles made from this. The idea is that, if you sit on your specs and damage the frame, the metal will return to its original shape. When I've had new specs that needed...
What sort of features should I look out for when looking to buy (like the picture resolution, storage capacity)? Anyone care to recommend a model from personal experience?

I have been listening (again) to my collection of songs by the great Tom Lehrer and it has reminded me of a question I've always wanted answered. The subject of the song is in the Army and has been so...
