My emoticons & the compatability button disappeared overnight.

I had NOT done anything to my computer.

Since then I have downloaded the latest IE8.

Who snuck into my house in the middle of the night?

Seems to be a constant here

Windows XP and IE8 - which I am also using

Not sure if I purchased this computer in 2004 or 2005 but it was second hand then

I won't touch chrome.

I tried it once and it messed up lots of websites (including familysearch).

Computer guru told me it's a spy!

lolol

I can't imagine watermelons growing in Scotland!

I added the >>grinning watermelon<< because it has such a BIG smile.

The orchards grew mainly soft fruit, mostly strawberries & raspberries, they also had lots of fruit trees, apples, plums etc. I grew up eating lots of fruit in summer....... these days I get really mad when I see the price of a small punnet of raspberries.

:-D :-D @ Scozz. Love watermelons - and always prefer those grown in Scotland ;-)

Thta "raspberries from Sainsburys" remark was based on Chas and Dave's song. About a lovely young lady, perfect in every way. But she would rabit, rabbit, rabbit. She had "more rabbit than Sainsburys" (smiley face, choke choke, naughty wink)

Hi Renes

Sorry my computer does not like FB at all. Throws its toys out of the pram if I try to get onto FB.

Also miss the gang.

I believe Micr*s*ft aimed the Windows 8 at businesses.......... the rest of us don't seem to matter. I also think they shot themselves in the foot!

John ~ I should have more raspberries than Sainsbury's........ my family used to own orchards in Scotland, they grew most fruit including raspberries.

Hmmm sounds as if the age of the computer "may" be a factor,.
I`m sure I read somewhere that even Vista were dropping support of new application updates, or something along that line, not too certain about that though.

Oooo... Scozz I used to love my IE8 and XP on my old computer, and even when I was on Vista.
I hate this bloody Windows 8, with all the silly picture boxes on my new computer, a step backward in my opinion. :-(

Budgie ~
My computer is OLD (at least ten years old, I'll use it until it falls apart).

I use IE8 (still on XP) and I installed the latest version of Adobe this afternoon.

No joy.
