On incoming emails (I use BT webmail) and orders from companies I am seeing y with a dot over it for a £ sterling sign. I have only noticed this over the past week or so. Is it me or what. I print out letters and the £ sign is normal. Sandra

Sandra It could be that the originator of the e-mail is using a foreign keyboard. My keyboard is American and unless I change the language to English (United Kingdom) I get a "#" instead of "£". David
