Hi nicol No I do not have a crystal ball, and that was supposed to be a joke. I thought Sky asked when the bug would be fixed which is impossible to know. I think he really asked how long the bug would be fixed which Charles joked about. Usually if I put, smiles just before my name I am joking. But since this bug has cost me hundreds of dollars in Christmas game sales, I did not think it was funny. Frowns, Phil
