Hi :) Thanks for the flowers (as they say). People from Windows-land are mostly only familiar with phone-support which makes it difficult to copy&paste the answers that are spoken and impossible to give screen-shots or attachments. I guss it's better with smart-phones but then you get into the unfamiliar land of text and pictures which is tooo geeky for many Windows users. Which is odd because it's easier. I guess physically being there is the ultimate support and worth the most money. Regards from Tom :)
