Pete ,I shall try to use Jen's computer when it is free & see if I can make comments from there ,OK ... Trouble is she is always on it ...it is 'Hers' you know ;-) ROTFL Bless her little sweet heart ! Hugs & thanks always ....
A friend of mine recently hjad a heart attack and died but his family just kept praying & they brought him back. He said he saw the gates of heaven & hell, and could see people going in to heaven but their kids were going to hell, and kids going to heaven but their parents going to hell. He's now travelling to tell people to take it seriously.
... better you stay back deep in the woods ... can then pour some champagne upon you more often ... dear toothless smiley smoker, my award like congrats on your 1st but one :-)))
Perhaps it is humour that makes the world go round, and not love ....... or both? Thanks for the laugh. Have just come back from a few days walking, had a great time, with good company and really good walking, and would you believe even the Scottish weather was kind to us. Hope you are well and happy.

... as a sand or electronic time specialist you may be not that updated on pinions and balance springs ... but ya right my friends, I made sure it never works again as I hate clocks which cut my time to pieces ...
Like to forward to you a Balance Spring Trophy for you kind comment ! joachim
Thanks Peter...surely funny. The second one is fake though...it is Belgian (not Dutch) and it is a scene from a comedy sketch....not real! It is from a show that tends to laugh at things that are still a bit not done to laugh with like people with a handicap or religion etc....it is an eye opener.... Viviane
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hey there Mate, It's always such a pleasure to hear from you! :) Don't think I've seen 8 below yet.. But will look out for it! :) It has been such a gift having you for a friend. Look'n for that Glorious day! What a celebration that will be!!
Just viewed the laughing tapes.. wew hoo.. I cracked up with the guy in the second one.. :)
Ooooooooooooooooops sorry Pete ,yes I did turn off my security software .I am scratching my head so much it will bleed soon !!! I have just had an idea .....I think I shall change my email address & see if that makes a difference .....sounds like a woman I know .......but I am running out of ideas & it is driving me nuts .......oh I can't wait to get back in that sandpit & play ...I am missing everyone terribly !!!!! I feel like Tinkerbell trying to return from Neverland !!!!!

The email address won't make any difference.
The reason I asked about the security software was to see if it had somehow decided that fotki contests were a threat. But if you've turned it right off & still had no luck then we know that's not the problem.
This is what we've discovered.
1. It's not Internet Explorer settings because you installed another browser Firefox & still couldn't comment. 2. It's not your security software because you turned it off & still couldn't comment. 3. It's not your account per se because you created a free account & you couldn't comment from that account either. 4. It's not overclogged cookies or Internet Explorer files on your PC because you've deleted them & rebooted your PC to no avail. 5. It's not a general fotki fault because everyone else can comment.
Another idea is to try & log in from another computer or laptop, to see if it's your IP address that's causing it. Have you got another PC you can try from?
If that doesn't work, I could try for you from here. You'd have to give me your username & password, but I promise I'd only try to comment as a test then I'll lose your password. I wouldn't leave rude comments everywhere under your name !! LOL
I had a problem many years ago & Raphael Pungin did the same thing for me as a test.
Darn it Pete ,have just done as you suggested ,no luck Buddy ??? I am tearing my hair out here ! I even have another browser to see if that would work too ......not on your nelly ....I am really stuck here my friend ....... Thank you for thanking everyone for their comments ,you are so very kind .....I feel absolutely dreadful that I cannot comment ..........I have got an entry in the DA but I think it will be my last ,it just isn't fair for people to make comments & me not ,I feel terrible about it Pete ......I really do ! Hey great shot you have in the weekly nice to see it doing so well ! Hugs Lynne

Don't you dare, people are starting to realise your dilemna so they won't begrudge you not commenting. They WILL begrudge you if you pike out & don't play in the sandpit anymore with the other kids !!
You still haven't answered me about the antivirus software yet ?! :-)
