Thanks to all who helped me; I'm now registered here. Yesterday, my account (yahoo) came under attack. My name and address (e-mail) were used to send nonsense far and wide. Ok, that's probably what I do myself anyway, but I don't like messing folk about and I don't like the fact that some unknown was in my account and mailing folk pretending to be me. So, beware: there may be something tracking this message. The person who owns the computer - besides giving me a good bollicking - has scanned everything and declared the set-up clean now. Good luck to All and I hope to look in and post when I get back. sean rua

Welcome Sean, it happens a lot computer hacking/ virus/ spoofing/ phishing what ever, glad you got is sorted though, can be a real pain. I also recently downloaded something, oh it was the new bbc i-player, and I think I said yes to something , and for ages after I had a tiny little man popping up all over the screen offering to help me!! He's gone now.....it did happen honest!

Welcome Sean. It wasn't your fault about the computer. It may be something downloaded by mistake when either you or the computer owner was web surfing. Sometimes all you need to do is click on a link or an attachment and it happens. There's a 0% chance of someone tracking you posting here, it's totally unrelated Glad to see you made it anyway! If you want I can fix it for you so your name displays as Sean Rua like you wanted. Let me know!

Hi Sean
I'm really glad you've found us and got in, the admins were aware that you were having probs signing up and were really hoping you wouldn't give up on us, so v glad you didn.t.
Computer probs are like vehicles, they let you down at the most inconvenient times, it can be hard to discover the cause of the problem but often it's something simple, but which can cost you alot of money and time to get fixed unless you know how to fix them yourself.
Hope the weather's not too bad for you on the road, I'd love to hear some stories from you about life on the road, so looking forward to hearing from you again soon.

I have no idea who you are, but it is really good to see you here. Both my twitter and facebook accounts were hacked in two separate events in the last month, one by someone in Croatia, the other in the USA. Yahoo has a bit of a reputation for being hacked . It is an evil world we live in. I am blathering on because I need to keep my post count up.
