Dear Anne,
I will definitely try this. Thank you for your help. I shall report
the results.
With my very best wishes
Simon

Hello Simon,
Your machine seems to be behaving oddly. Perhaps it would be a good
idea to zap the PRAM. To do this, shut down your computer, then hold
down the Command, Option, P and R keys and press the power key. Keep
the four keys held down until you've heard the chime three times,
then let them go and your machine will boot normally.
After that, do Repair Disk Permissions. I can't promise that this
will help, but it's worth a try.
Cheers,
Anne
