Frying pan burns

What's the best way of removing burned on stains from a non-stick pan? It's a circulon pan and about 17 years old so I don't want to scrub the coating off.

Mobile phone sim

I am trapped in a contract with a phone that doesn't support many apps (Nokia C3-01). If I buy a smart phone of some kind, can I swap the SIM over and use it as a smart phone without problems?

Parliamentary perks

I have lost patience with MPs who routinely make outrageous claims and then say it was a mistake. They know and we know that there was no mistake. Is there anything other than waiting for the next...

WMPInfo file

I cocked up by deleting the WMPInfo file from my Walkman. I've downloaded another and saved to the walkman, but it still doesn't work. Does the file need to go in a specific area to work properly?
