Thanks Sheilagh and Charlotte,
Well, it appears "I'm baaaack". LOL A bit harried and worn, but I suppose no worse for the wear! I had to uninstall Windows and reinstall it, then we had to find a driver for my dsl modem

. I lost everything, as we had to wipe the hard drive

, so I lost all my neat tubes, gifs and pix from the last two years. *sigh* On the positive note, I have a clean slate, now! I can continue doing avis......so, who's ready for a Valentines avatar?!
