This has been a good thread .. thanks to you both for the read. Perhaps it is that, with me too, complacency is setting in. Using a Mac helps, as we Mac owners know that nothing will invade our machines ...... until probably the day after tomorrow. ...... Bobs link had not escaped my notice.

In certain countries, I know, there is a lot of internet censorship, but in the western world I think it is too big now for any one to try to put brakes on it.
Enjoy the music Edward, that's what I came here for
