Edel A young lady like you should be asleep hours ago but I guess you are working on the power point presentations. Sure sounds like you are lucky with regard to the Broadband. good it was not me or my computer going mad then receiving two e-mails. Nothing like making sure it gets through. We are still waiting for someone to come on and tell us about the attachments to our e-mails. They have all gone quiet. I know parts of Sligo are dreadful at not being able to have the Broadband either. I used to have the telephone dial-up and now would go crazy with it. A friend used to say if I switchedd to Broadband I would never go back. I did not believe him but now I have the access to the computer 24/7 which is great. Costs a bit I know but well worth it.

I thought it hadn't gone the first time. My broadband is really acting up this last week. I blamed the rain on Wednesday, the sun on Thursday and the wind on Sunday. I think its a mixture of the weather today. What I have to keep reminding myself is that I'm very lucky as I am the only one in ten houses in a rural area that can receive broadband. The reason being because I'm on a 'really old' telephone line. My neighbour living in a newly built house had to change their phone line and phone number in order to get broadband and pay a nice price for it too. So all you who live in the bigger towns and cities, be thankful for the uninterrupted use of broadband. I'm still contending with the '42 to 1' ratio, or was it '41 to 1'. I've listened to so many excuses from eircom I forget which ones are the best.

I can recall someone on the list raising this issue some days ago about receiving e-mails twice. Now I do not know if it is you or me that has the problem here. No doubt someone will come on and help us out here with both queries.

Funny though its not on ALL my emails. The email you sent Re: slo computer shows an attachment but the one you sent Re: List Involvement doesn't show one. Now I'm curious. Edel.. ----- Original Message ----- From: Eleanor Burke To: vip_students@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Monday, June 23, 2008 7:08 PM Subject: [vip_students] E-mails and Attachments I am using AVG 8.0 Free Edition. All my e-mail attachments have attachments, even those that don't actually have attachments. I had this problem before and I know there is a setting to change on the e-mail part. If I open the attachment which begins att I just gets the text of the e-mail I have received. ow I am sure there is someone there who knows how I should resolve this. Many thanks.
