This may be a silly question but I seem to be the only person who has this: Rating < 0 ( ) 3 > at the bottom of all my posts. Does anybody know what it is, why I have it and how to remove it from being on all my posts? Thank you.

Well i have finally been given the green light by my better half and i am to ditch my ageing Renault and get a newer car. The big question i have to answer next is do i need to stay with Diesel or perhaps i could buy my first ever petrol car? Since 17 i have had Derv motors simply due to where i lived but now i'm a city boy and do i really need a Derv motor? I drive 10 miles to work per day and do an average of 12,000 per year (travelling to parents and family some 50 miles away). I am looking at the following Derv motors, can any owners tell me anything good? Skoda Fabia vRS 1.9 TDI PD VW Golf 2.0 GT Sport 2.0 170FR VW Golf 1.9 TDI BlueMotion VW Jetta 2.0 TDI 4 M…

Hi all, Just a quick question in regards to the governments 'key worker mortgage schemes', they allow people who work in a key area of public services ' Police, Nurse etc' to apply for help with increasing their borrowing power by offering a sort of cash equity loan to bridge the gap between what you can borrow with a mortgage and what the properties cost in the area you wish to buy. The above details are only a brief incite and I apologise if I have got the full details of the scheme wrong. I am currently in the RAF Police and looking to apply to West Mids or Warwickshire and my girlfiend is serving in West Mids. We both will be looking to buy a property together in…

Is owning information (recipes) on how to make potentially deadly poisions actually illegal or does there have to be certain equipment and/or ingredients in the possession of a person before it can be considered a threat to life or even national security? thanks for your time.

One has a film, that you want the music of, is there a way of taking the music from the dvd itself? So the music will then play on iTunes.

This has taken a week in an attempt to narrow down a problem. Internet explorer is using way to much CPU about 50% . This runs under the item in Windows task manager as dllhost.exe, A com surrogate. I can turn it off, but what a pain, thou each time i boot up, it will start as soon as i use I.E. I have of course run several scans. Kaspersky online virus scanner, mcafee, Pest patrol, Spybot, Spyware doctor,adware, A squared. Cleaned out registery. I am at a loss to know where to look next. I have tried running I.E. without addons, no luck there. If anyone has any ideas, please do let me know. Thank you!!

This is actaully a true stroy that happend to me recently. I was on my way to police HQ for a recruitment interview. I was on the train, and it was early morning around 7am. There were a group of kids, boys and girls around 15/16. A black conductor came along asking for tickets. these kids did'nt have tickets, but purchased them off the conductor, valid till the next stop which was about 15 minuits away. A small argument occured. The conductor was being arrogant and cheeky, as he was walking away one kid called him a tosser. The conductor turns around and accuses him of calling him a " N " word. Which he did not. He then began to take the mick out the kids stutter. he the…

This has probably been asked (and answered) but here goes. You are off duty and are walking around the Booty (carboot sale) when you see a minor buying a knife from a stall. Knowing that you will never keep an eye on both seller and buyer at the same time, do you put yourself on duty or do you become the star witness and phone it in via crimestoppers/local number, etc? I use the booty as a venue because shops and possibly regular markets have regular attendance. Also what would you do if you are not on your own patch so to speak, ie hopefully I will be working in the Met but I live in Wilts/Hants?

I've just got myself a sony ericsson K850, previously having the K750i model, and all I want to do is transfer all the stuff on the 750 to the 850, including tasks, notes, code memo, as well as contacts and the calender, and media and game files. Is this something the PC suite can do, or does anyone know of any software that can do it, preferably free!
