PC Probs.

The consensus of opinion from people I asked and Internet advice sites about my pc problems was that Norton Firewall was blocking access to Outlook Express and my Blueyonder Hetherington family web site. I discovered that there was no reason for two firewalls running in conjunction and they may even be in conflict with each other. As Windows Firewall was also enabled I had to decide which one to close down. After much inner conflict I gritted my teeth and uninstalled Norton. Nothing terrible happened but Outlook still didn't perform correctly so I deleted it. This move was not popular with Jack who had made it his own and didn't want to share Hotmail with me using my name. We solved the matter easily by registering him with Yahoo which he now likes using. My web site is now accessible again for editing purposes.

Nothing is ever straightforward however. We can never be complacent. Soon our blogs are to be updated. I will just wait for the changes to happen in due course and save myself more headaches by trying to jump the queue.
