                            And a Happy Birthday for the recently passed 24th to you too Mr. Maunder. I turned 30 which so far has had no discernible effect except lots of slagging from friends along the lines of "middle aged" and "it's all down hill from here." Lovely bunch!

                              It's not a bug, but rather a feature to wipe out all your data when you log in a guest. In case the cops confiscate your computer, just tell them to use the guest account.

                                          And a Happy Birthday for the recently passed 24th to you too Mr. Maunder. I turned 30 which so far has had no discernible effect except lots of slagging from friends along the lines of "middle aged" and "it's all down hill from here." Lovely bunch!

                                          cheers, Paul M. Watson.

                                          No worries, Paul! At 30 you're over the puppy stage and finally housebroken, not worn out. Happy Birthday! :-D
