    DNA The Thief Catcher

    We're clearly not going to agree, Roger. Still no alternative suggestions forthcoming, though. :) How does that work? Any evidence to back it up? Are you saying that we should ban investigative journalism as it is counter to proper policing with integrity? Of course I'm not saying that. One...

    DNA The Thief Catcher

    You're not being forced to carry any card, are you? Why would anyone bother to track your movements anywhere? If you don't like a bank asking you, for example, where the amounts of cash you deposit came from, perhaps you won't mind if some of it gets stolen and the crime goes undetected because...

    DNA The Thief Catcher

    Why is it "alien" to fight criminals using the latest available technology and what would be your ideal alternative method(s)? Ray

    Computer question.

    Not infallible, but a good indicator is to go to the Gibson Research Corporation's website at http://grc.com Click on "Shields Up," then scroll down until you find "Shields Up" and click on it again. Click on "Proceed" then on "Continue" (if required), then click on "All Service Ports" and wait...

    Computer question.

    No - it's nothing to do with Skype, it's solely for downloading files put up by other users (and often infected). Get rid of it! Ray

    Computer question.

    For Safe Mode, hold down the F8 key after switching on and before Windows itself starts to load. Choose "Safe Mode" from the options. You'll get a load of white text (files and drivers being loaded), then a screen which tells you that you're in Safe Mode. OK that and you're in. I'd totally...

    Ban the Burka ?

    There are probably three elements within this subject, diversity, integration and religion, all of which can be minefields in their own right. Britain claims to be "multi-cultural," but that may confuse the issue as I'm sure that many still believe that those whose culture differs should "fit...

    Calling All Cack Handed Turners...!!! ;~)

    I'm naturally left-handed and my left eye is dominant. I turn on a conventionally-set-up lathe (and always have done) without difficulty. I've never even considered turning any other way, although my lathe would allow it. I mostly hold the tools in my left hand, but not exclusively so. I suppose...

    Kitchen Worktop Jigs

    I'm assuming you know how to use the jig, but if not, here's a page I did on just that a while back. :) Ray

    making louver door

    I built Norm's Louvre Door jig, but was lucky enough to have been sent the "Jigs" programme that he did (as an .mpg file, now long-since gone), from which I made my version. Instead of setting strips of ply in dados to act as a saddle for the two stiles, I decided to screw saddle strips to the...

    Sky box pausing live tv

    No, it's only a planner re-build which leaves the hard drive content alone. "System reset" wipes the hard drive content. You could try switching off at the wall, holding down the "Backup" switch on the box, then switching back on. Wait until all the lights flash on the front before releasing...

    Cat doors in UPVC doors

    It depends on how the door is put together and how old it is. Some doors are possible to rebuild with a flatter replacement lower section, but most are not. It may also be a fire door (if not partly glazed) with a metal lining - something you don't want to discover when you've drilled the pilot...

    WANTED

    I've got this Hegner Multicut, complete with stand: which had had very little use. However, it might be too much for a single project and I'm a considerable distance away. :) Ray
