OK Paul, pretty simple with the pictures I included.
Click on the HELP tab where shown.
Click on the ABOUT INTERNET EXPLORER from the drop down menu.
It will then show you what version you have.

I still could not see the help sign on top, so just out of curiosity i right clicked up the top and clicked on the menu bar.
There it was, up on the screen as you said so i know exactly what version i have, and i can now register what i have.
Thanks Phil for the help, so thats another thing i have learned.



Best regards BD Paul

As long as we're on the subject of browsers I have another question.
This only pertains to those that are using the latest edition of Firefox (3.0.1)
It seems as though ever since I did the last update which I believe was a few weeks ago I've been experiencing some sporadic problems with FF.

When accessing a Web site (not just this one) the page at times does not upload completely. As an example, I'll use this site to describe some of the problems encountered although they are all basically the same and interrelated.

As you can easily see from the enclosed images that certain images do not upload completely.
Sometimes it may be just half an avatar, a black square where one of the smilies should be etc. Just a bunch of oddities although it only happens intermittently but it seems quite often. I find myself having to right click and then click on “reload” once or twice to get a fully uploaded page. As said, this not related to this site only. Is anyone else who is using FF 3.0.1 experiencing the same thing?

I have things like that happen from time to time, sometimes it doesn't get the css file or different images. I'm not sure if it's the server under a load or if it's FF, because I immediately load it up in IE and will sometimes get the same thing or site not found.

Not experienced any of that Phil, My computer / Firefox doesn't like the new picture settings, you know where you click on the picture and everything goes dark with the picture in the middle, mine takes either an age to load, or it won't load at all. The screen will go dark, and a little black box will appear, but instead of the picture I get the name and a cross to cross it off.

To see pic's I have to right click on them and click open picture in new tab.

Sorry, I can’t answer that one Matt! I have no idea why it would act that way!

Might very well be just as you stated but as far as I know you can’t enable or see WYSIWYG editing with Safari when making a post. Whatever you’re comfortable with is all that matters.
