Erh, not that I'm keeping tabs on your life or anything, but you and your family all live in the same house and share a single anolog telephone line, right?

Anyway, does the phone always ring when your (twin?) sissster closes the connection, or only after she's been online a while? Because it sounds like some strangely misconfigured call waiting software is playing pranks on her, but that's about all I can think of.

I had a similar problem at my old house. If my modem was plugged into the phone line, the other phones in the house would ring continiously, until I connected to the internet. When I disconnected, the same thing happened.

I got around it by just pulling the modem lead out whenever I wanted to disconnect. And I couldn't quite be bothered finding out why it was so weird.

So that's not very helpful at all.

Yes, you're despicable, and... and picable... and... and you're definitely, definitely despicable. How a person can get so despicable in one lifetime is beyond me. It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

Cartman - yeah we all share one phone line and live in the same how - you spying on us? [Big Grin]

It only rings when my sister disconnects from her internet connection and only rings once. It's quiet at any other time unless someone rings us normally.

Something could be faulty . . . sounds right - we did get it from PC World. [Frown]

Um, just a quick question:

Is there a way to determine whether someone has blocked your e-mail account from their account? i.e. you send them an e-mail and it gets blocked/sent to the trash bin? Can you find out from your end other than them not replying to you?

Cheers!

You could call and ask them.

OK, I've got one: what do I have to delete to get rid of the annoying feature my work IE has, of remembering virtually everything I type into a Search field? Especially in Google where I look for all sorts of bizarre info.

Its something to do with the AutoComplete feature. I think you can turn it off in IE's options somewhere.

I've looked there's a "Use Inline AutoComplete" in the Advanced tab but it's not ticked. . .

Well, I don't know what version you're on, but, on mine, the Content tab of the Internet Options has an AutoComplete button that brings up a separate window where you can select when to use AC. It also has buttons to clear out what it has already stored.
