I would have swapped that willingly yesterday, YoKenny.
I went to a rock concert (the B52's) that was canceled because of wind. I have a met observers licence, and I reckon the wind was about 30kt gusting 40kt; about 60Km/hr G 80. maybe more. Self and Mrs Tarq had been looking forward to this for months.

Sorry to go so far OT.

I like Rock Lobster:

Its OT but the other day the wind was from the North at 25km/h gusting to 50km/h with the temperature at -10C bringing tears to my eyes.
I look forward to March and Spring.

Thank you for the pointers.  I appreciate the link to the removal tool for AVG.  I didn't know they had one.  I found out years ago that Norton had one after rebuilding a crashed system due to a problem install and not being able to get the remnants removed.  Hopefully the AVG remover will help me be comfortable in removing AVG.  I'll then revisit the ini file to turn on the Web Shield
