This is a forum or general chit-chat, small talk, a "hey, how ya doing?" and such. Or hell, get crazy deep on something. Whatever you like.

Has anyone else seen anomalies in their computers after extended visits?

No. I use Firefox, and spend more time here than most. I do find the Forge often slows down to treacle-speed and requires logging out and in again, and sometimes "new" forum posts don't get flagged as new, but no browser/system instabilities so far (touch wood!)

No security system is impenetrable. Thanks for the reassurance.

Mick I have found the lastest version of Firefox crashes on me (and the older versions did not)but I don't think it was this site that caused the problem. I installed the extension that brings your browser back to where ever you were when it crashed, and that helps.

FWIW, My version info (works for me):

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-GB; rv:1.8.0.3) Gecko/20060426 Firefox/1.5.0.3

That's the same version I have. Maybe it's all my extensions. I was bummed to loose the spell check in forms feature after clicking on this update. Maybe it's the extra things I try to make Firefox do that is my problem.

Could be. I don't make it do anything much but search eBay for bagpipes and log onto the Forge. I didn't even know there was a spellcheck option!

Oh no--you can't get you pipes on ebay! Let me get you some links to some pipe makers. I've heard of one in Virginia that was good...

Sorry, I know more about Uilleann pipes, but this should get you started:

http://www.kennedysuilleannpipes.com/
http://www.bagpipeworld.co.uk/British%20Isles/Union.htm
http://www.uilleann.net/
http://www.unionpipes.co.uk/

I'm sure you can find more--and probably a website for your favorite type of pipes.

Ah, but do they make pibgyrn, kaba gaida and mezoueds?

You have to ask them But it's still is better than ebay. They would at least know where you should go.

Yuo know where I think pipes should go....but I'm just bitter ;p

website for your favorite type of pipes

http://www.pibydd.fsnet.co.uk/, but I've got instruments from half a dozen countries (can't play them all yet ) There are occasional bargains to be had on ebay.
