Thanks Dwight, I have not been able to try this as Firefox is now crashing. It opens ok but when I try to navigate to another site the browser crashes and i get the microsoft send/dont send message. I have started using IE7 for time being. I have downloaded and re installed Firefox but it still crashes.
