Hi there Ted.
You make it sound so easy. I do hope that I get through the process as I'm
a bit out in the sticks here and help is not easily available. Barry has
advised me to get a Firewall. I am using Sygate Personal Firewall. Would
you think that this is sufficient or would you recommend something else.
Thanks.
Best wishes.
Andy from sunny Kilcreggan
