Buenchico, I Have Question For You

[nungate]

I hope you are about.

Here's my question. Can I run two browsers on my laptop? At the moment I use internet explorer, but there's something I want to do and I need to use another browser in order to do it, so as my personal font of all technical knowledge I thought I should ask you. Can you advise me?

By the way, any new puss cats in your life?

Thanks for your answers folks. Most grateful.

I've only just seen your question, Nungate, which others appear to have answered anyway. (You can have as many browsers as you like; you can even have them all open at the same time if you like).

Thanks for your enquiry about whether there are currently any cats in my life. A few weeks ago TWO of them decided to march through my cat flap and move in.

LBC' (= 'Little Black Cat') is a bit of a part-timer; he comes and goes but, when it's cold, he likes to sleep in a suitcase on top of my wardrobe. 'Shakatu' (named because of the similarity to my all-time favourite cat, 'Sharka' i.e. 'Sharka Two) is much more permanent; he sleeps on my bed at night and spends the rest of the day telling me exactly what to do.

Although I've written 'he' in both cases, I've not actually looked under their tails yet, so I don't actually know their genders! I've also no idea where they've come from. I keep looking out for 'missing cat' posters but nobody seems to have lost them so they're staying here for now!

Hey Chris, been a while. Two cats, just like buses, none for a while then two pop up at once! They obviously know a soft cat lover when they find one.
Two of our four are going to be needing good homes if they don't start behaving - room for two more?
Thanks for the info, I have just loaded up with Firefox now I just need to decide on an e-mail thing to finish the thing I want to do....(my brain hurts now!) We had been thinking about using Queenofmean's old laptop to do this "thing" but now I won't need to.

Thanks for your post, Nungate.

If, when you downloaded Firefox, you went via the link that says 'Systems and Languages' you'll have found and downloaded the British version. However most people simply click on the 'Download' button on the Firefox home page, getting them the American version.

Try typing 'colour' and 'color' into an AB answer box. If 'color' is underlined as incorrect you've got the British spellchecker. If 'colour' is marked as incorrect you've got the American spellchecker. If so, see my post at 1410 here to correct the problem:
