223873 2004-04-12 00:22:00 Yes still waiting Susan. Also got a order number but alas no disk. :( B.M. (505)
223874 2004-04-12 00:34:00 I received the discs a few weeks ago, put the main one in and it said it the my PC was all up to date, except I didn't have Media Player 9 .... which I elected not to install. In the end it didn't really do much for me.

I could copy the discs and send to those without them if MS doesn't get their A into G.

That'd be great Jester :D yeah I still work at the council...

if you're going in there, tell the receptionist you've got something for "Mike in GIS" or ask to see me or something - you can either leave them with her, or I can come down (not guaranteed to happen straight away, but usually within a couple of minutes :D)

if not, I'll just keep waiting for my disks from MS :)

cheers

223880 2004-04-13 10:41:00 Still haven't recieved mine so have resorted to ordering another set. metla (154)
223881 2004-04-13 12:30:00 Don't get to upset,those that haven't received there discs as yet.I got mine about 3 weeks ago,and there really isn't anything that you are missing.All my updates were up to date,so nothing new there....I have a full 10months left on my NOD32 security,so wasn't interested in the free trial one on the disc, so nothing to get excited about there......I did try the firewall and the 15 day trial ran out yesterday,so I'm back with Zone Alarm.The most interesting thing about the trial firewall is that it is virtually identical to Zone Alarm,the only differance between the two is the actual name that appears on the program.
So to sum it up for all you anxious members out there,
If your security program is about to expire,then you will get 12months free full cover.
I get the feeling that most members here are all normally updated anyway,and are quite happy with there firewalls and security,so there really isn't anything worth worrying about,you aren't missing anything.
Cheers

223882 2004-04-13 12:42:00 By they way,I actually received my discs 4 days after ordering them,not only that,but I was sent 2 sets,so I was able to give one to a friend.
I hear Bill Gates likes Nelson,also.:D
Still,I'm not one to gloat.
