Lindt... world's best choccies?... you are JOKING!!!!!
That stuff you have to be half-cut to like, and totally p***ed to
'appreciate'!
You have been zombied by the hype!

there is no such thing as 'the world's best choccie' - everyone has their
own preferences in terms of cocoa content, sugar/milk content, etc.... but
in terms of the flavour (despite a LOT of failings in other departments),
Cadbury's still has a lead. I find the Swiss-type choccy to have a very
floury mouth-feel, and a fairly insipid after-taste. Bitter or dry I can
understand, but insipid? (cocoa is on of the world's most bitter substances,
after all!)
Yes, Cadbury's is oversweet, and lacking in bite (unless you talk about
Bourneville....)but at least it tastes of Cocoa!....

My mum was in hospital in January (she's okay) and my sister and I were
visiting and shopping and stuff. At Sainsburys (you probably saw several
when you were here, likely from the inside too!) the Easter Eggs were on
sale. We got a small Lindt (world's best chocolate) bunny each (200 kcal
max.). At the checkouts were piles of packs of Hot Cross Buns on offer
(something like 2 for 1, you know? So it wasn't like "have some Hot Cross
Buns in January!" so much as "Have twice as many Hot Cross Buns in
January!").

Last year Easter was in March, which killed the whole thing stone dead for
me! But the first time I got sunburnt to were I peeled - and I tan - was
on Easter Sunday 1980, working on the roof of Pershore General Market. And
it was on the same job that I knackered my back. So Easter Schmeaster!

I see Jesus looked like Max Von Sydow! I suppose Linda Blair was the spit
of Mary Magdalene. Shame Barbera Hershey doesn't live here though.

Everyone well, I trust? How's Casey? Haven't heard about the chap in a
while.

Hey Figgs,

What I say - these days - is give up on free AV for 9x. Go for the
best deal on a quality paid option. For instance, NOD32. I got a 2
year license for 3 machines and they don't have to be at the same
location. So three users can get NOD32 for two years for not so very
much, particularly if split three ways. IIRC they do three year deals
also. And v2.7 - that even runs on Win 95 still - remains available.
I daresay other companies have vaguely similar deals.

Of course, for those afraid they could die after only getting one
year's use out of it, it is a dilemma!

But it gets to the point where if there are no circumstances in which
a user will consider paying for AV software, they might as well not
use any and I figure that time is just about reached with Win Me.

Hi HD......glad to see you found the spot. And also glad you have
now
munged your address. These folks should be able to advise you.
Personally, I would keep the version of Avast that you have and let
it
update the definitions. But I will see what the rest say.

I need a new free anti-virus program to work with my beloved WinMe,
and Rising Anti-virus Free and Avast seem to be the only ones
around.
Avast stops support for WinMe at the end of this year, leaving
Rising
as my best bet. Anyone with experience with Rising Free? Good? Bad?
