| Search engines like Google, Bing, AOL etc have what's known as bots, they crawl through the internet collecting information from website pages which then goes into the search engines listings on the net | |

| I have explore, i also have Mozille firefox, but that cant even open my e-mail, on my computer i use Linux, its so much faster, hence great for streaming, It does have its own complete office program as well, and if i check my e-mails anything written in Microsoft Word, or Publisher opens no problem, i must admit, i dont use it a lot, but may well do in the future, as im getting fed up having to buy a new printer every 3 years as its suddenly out of date with Microsoft, the Whole Linux complete with their version of Office is only around 750MB and you get a choice thats longer than your arm of free games, thats not bad | |

| Your Lucky, I had a HP printer scanner, when I got Windows 8 my printer was incompatible to function with Windows 8, and was told I needed a update, and there was no more updates, I went to a friend, and asked if he could find anything, and there was nothing, I gave my printer and scanner to my girlfriends son, he just plugged it in and it worked automatically, that’s when I got interested in Linux, he has never installed any of the software | |

| LG I don’t know about England, but its like every 3 or 4 years Things start to be out of date with Microsoft, hence you have to buy a update or something that’s compatible with your old laptop, computer, in the end its easier just to go out and buy a new computer, or change over to Linux. My stationer computer is 6 years old, I 2, 500 GB hard disks in it, and that’s only got Linux on it. My laptop is 3 years old, if I delete yahoo chat, msn and everything else with hotmail, live mail, my 6 year old computer still is 3 times faster than my 3 year old laptop, but the thing I find really nice on my pocket, updates are free, and I can have a 10 year printer work without a hitch with Linux | |

| I lost my Hotmail contacts, some from chat, they have a help line over here, when i finaly got through, the guy i spoke to thought it was funny, a lot of people over here lost their accounts with Hotmail, and msn. I like Skype, because its so much cheaper for me to ring to my Mum. If i ring in the daytime ½ hour to a home number in England is about 10p to 20p. There is one issue i like with Skype, if your chatting with anybody on Skype at least you can see who they are, hence chatting with family one is not so far away | |

| LG okay, did they ever find out who it was?
About 5 years ago, there was a firm in England that made a anti virus protection programfor firms, i think it cost about £400. The idea was if someone tried to hack into your computer, it would be able to block this person and at the same time send out its own virus to the hacker. I dont know if this firm is still going or went bust.

| They knew Stumpy. The person responsible for the previous hackings didn't hide the fact that it was him or the fact that he wanted ukcb closed for good.....but he denied that he was responsible for the last attack, but his past history makes his denial unbelievable. Also he was working on his own chat website which he completed as soon as poss when ukcb went offline. Debs don't forget the goggles, the tinfoil curtains and wallpaper, always be well prepared. Photos of you will be greatly appreciated | |
