Just testing an idea for a new thread, which would summarise the latest position of all UK source 2012 sat tracked ospreys

Super idea, JSB, I would be very grateful for it :-)

Glad you are sorted, FISH - almost the first thing I did was stop those email alerts (except for blog and PMs), was getting inundated :o

fish   Here is probably a better way of checking out Flash player. See instructions here

H i, tanks Tiger have done as you suggested and I can get "Rutland" again ( empty nest so sad no Ospreys,)

So what exactly did you do? It only seems to have solved half the problem. The Loch Garten Cam is still not working?

Are you using this link    or    this one  ?

I was having problems on my laptop (or should say one of my laptops as I have more than one) with Firefox 14.0.1 and the latest version of Flash Player. ie couldn't view the countdown clocks or moon phases in FF.

Anyway, after much time and a fair bit of frustration having fruitlessly uninstalled/reinstalled a few times. it was finally sorted by disabling the web download and record function in Real Player. For some reason this is not compatible with Firefox.

I don't use Firefox often as I prefer Internet Explorer but have the top five browsers installed  for checking out stuff I put on our website. No trouble at all with the other browsers, IE9, Chrome, Safari and Opera, just Firefox. Strange.

Thought I would put this here in case anyone else had similar problems.

It sounds as if your computer is suffering from some sort of virus. There seems too many things going wrong at once.

Sounds like it could do with a major overhaul fish. Do you do the usual maintenance things on your computer? Scans, defrags and such like? Do you have automatic Windows updates?

Thanks  Tiger for that  just what I need as I do not understand how they get into my pc????????? Had trouble ever since tried to use colored writing. How do I get rid of the virus please????

Do you not have a virus checker on your computer?

How did you do your coloured writing?

Hi Chloe will have to get someone with pc know how to do that for me as I do not understand a lot of pc jargon. sorry. Was my late sons job to clean the pc.

That sounds like a good idea fish. Do you have someone local you can take it to?

Can't remember what keys I pressed down at the same time. Ever since we all tried to color write I have had a prob with pc.

That seems like a font problem to me. You set the font for the printer on the <file> menu.
